So where’s Dino Rossi? Well according to the Spokane Spokesman-Review (boneheaded, paid-subscription required), the man who claims to be “taking a well-deserved break from politics,” is actually out in Spokane… campaigning.
In his blue suit, pressed white shirt and red tie, Dino Rossi appears every inch the candidate.
He’s got a book on leadership coming out.
He’s making a few select speaking appearances, like the one this morning to Republican state Senate leaders meeting in Spokane.
He’s returning the favor of friends who helped with his past campaigns, down to recording a few automated “robo-calls” for candidates in the 2005 election.
Yeah… sure… except for all the campaigning and political stuff he’s doing, he’s taking a break from politics.
What a load of crap.
So Dino… as long as you’re returning favors of friends who helped with past campaigns, how about returning a favor to the business community that bankrolled your run for governor? Why not record one of those robo-calls, asking voters not to support I-912? Or at the very least, why not just stake out a public position on an issue on which you’ve surely taken a private one… the most contentious issue on the November ballot?
Where’s Rossi on I-912? We’ll probably never know, because he’s apparently too busy campaigning for governor to display the kind of leadership necessary to be one.
Dino Rossi= Non-Leader
Obviously you haven’t figured out that you will never get an answer on this. Give it up already. Crissy wanted in, she fanagled her way in, she’s here, she went against her campaign promises as well as against the will of the people and created this mess. The people revolted, I-912 will pass and that’s the end of it. Rossi is sitting back laughing as he rightfully should.
I hear Dino and the Mayor of Spokane are surfing the internet with Jeff Gannon.
Hmmmm. . . I wonder what they’re up to?
“Where’s Ross?” Day 43
by Goldy, 10/26/2005, 11:38 AM
You are holding a vigil until former “Almost Live” cast member Ross Schafer publicly states his opinion on I-912? Now that takes some journalistic guts.
Dino-Sore;
…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser…loser
Goldy,
You clearly backed the wrong candidate for Governor. Why is it that you hang on Rossi’s every word? Is he THAT important and influential as a (quasi-)public figure? If so, one would think that such a person should be the one in the mansion in Olympia instead of someone who turns her back on campaign promises (taxes) and provides shady payback to campaign supporters (Indian casinos).
I understand that all loyal Dems have no opinions until they’re handed down from Dem “leadership” (or subliminally downloaded from MorOn.org). Perhaps you were too busy trying to slime Irons and missed the memo. But I think your fearless leaders would be more than a bit concerned that you’re so feverishly looking to Dino Rossi for guidance. Who knows? Maybe you’re at the turning point of the old saying, “If you’re 20 and not a Dem you have no heart. If you’re 40 and not a Republican, you have no brain.”
Conservative @ 4
Perhaps he’s willing to up it to a hunger strike?? ;)
Why no talk of the recent news on the WSDOT that you people think can do no wrong? About them getting reported to the Public Disclosure Commission for using our tax dollars to fund their BS scare tactics anti-912 campaign? Oh, I see…..maybe because that’d be an admission of unethical use of state funds as well as incompetence. Turns out they’re the ones getting their pee-pee’s whacked now. FINE with me, just helps the yes on I-912 cause. Hardy, har-har.

“Perhaps he’s willing to up it to a hunger strike??”
If he was a real journalist/activist, he would do so.
I can see the headline now “Ross, do you want my death on your hands? Day 15”
I think Goldy looks more and more ridiculous bringing this up. Fortunately for him, he can only look foolish on this issue until November 8th.
Note: The incorrect spelling of Rossi’s name was intentional.
The report to the PDC is just campaign tactics and bloviating by Brett “sour grapes” Bader . The PDC is going to reject that complaint with emphasis. Hardy Har Har yourself.
Con First — so, it doesn’t bother you that your Republican leader of Wahsington WILL NOT tell you where he stands on 912? Oh well, Republicans never were known for their leadership (Bush I, Bush II, Nixon, Ford, etc)
Considering the way in which you treated David Irons, he shouldn’t say a word beyond what he told KVI a while ago when he said he wasn’t asked by Gov’r Gregoire to help block 912.
BTW, 912 won’t matter in 2008… and Mary Lane – yes, Marummy – supports Initiative 912!
That’s A-L-L you need to know.
“I think Goldy looks more and more ridiculous bringing this up. Fortunately for him, he can only look foolish on this issue until November 8th.”
Really now CF. And just WHY would that be?
misfire_one @ 9: “your Republican leader of Wahsington”
What office, exactly, does he hold that gives him that authority? I believe that Chris Vance (for better or worse) is still the head of the GOP in WA.
It is interesting how you Lefties almost deify Rossi. Is he THAT threatening a 2008 candidate that you have to start the attacks four years early?
Marky Mark — What’s the matter? Are you ashamed of Rossi? Why are you disowning him? Are you willing to tell me with a straight face that he is not your next gubernatorial candidate? If he is, doesn’t he owe you an answer? Although personally it doesn’t make any difference to me because I predict the Governor will be reelected in a land slide.
@13:
Re-elected by a landslide? Keep dreaming pal. She’s already stuck her foot up her twat so far in less than a year in office, the damage is done. People will remember. We don’t need any more Queens anyway. If you want one, move to England.
Dino also was the voice for some recorded calls that went out recently in Clark County supporting Tom Milke for County Commissioner.
The message said “not to let what happened to me happen to Tom and make sure your vote is counted”
Later in November Dino also is the guest for the Clark County GOP so he can peddle his new bok and talk about the election.
Taking a break? Remember he STILL has a spokesperson
Con First 4,

“Really now CF. And just WHY would that be?”
If this was truly a vigil, Goldy would post on this topic every day.
Goldy’s “vigil” is clearly a stalking-horse to try and get Rossi to comment either way so Goldy can criticize him. Incessantly pushing the issue only makes that more clear, and as a result makes Goldy sound more shrill and ridiculous.
Comment by Josef for Honest Elections & Carlson Fan— 10/26/05 @ 1:41 pm
Off topic but I have to ask. Do you actually know Mary Lane? Or, are you just an obssessed fan boy? I hope it’s the former, otherwise you’re pretty creepy.
Goldy—
The real question is where is Governor Gregoire who actually signed the 9-1/2 cent/gallon GasTax increase despite a clear message that she wouldn’t???
It is comical….your gal is Governor. She should be out in front on this issue EVERY SINGLE DAY! Yet where in the hell is she??? It’s almost like Goldy desperately wants Rossi to be Queen for a Day! Sorry Goldy, Gregoire is the Governor and she has apparently evaporated!!!!!!! Isn’t that what happens to hot, damp air…..it evaporates!
This is clearly Goldy’s most pathetic, desperate stab to deflect attention away from the poor performance of his pal Smilin’ Ron Sims. Rather than discuss key election issues like Sims performance on CAO, SWA, the Election Dept and transportation issues the past 12 years, Goldy discusses citizen Rossi’s lack of leadership????
This is ALMOST as bad as Goldy dredging up a crazed mom’s uncorroborated allegations from 11 years ago!
Goldy has been scraping the bottom of the barrel so long and hard, that the barrel seems to have sprung a leak.
Sims is in huge trouble.
Goldy deflects.
Predictable….it ain’t working.
If Sims wins==========================Logan keeps his job.
If Sims loses=========================Logan is FIRED!!!
If David Irons wins===================Logan is FIRED!!!
Goldy ought to be discussing how Logan can possibly be allowed to oversee this election when his job depends upon the outcome.
How about that Goldy???
Goldy’s filter doesn’t like something about my post. Perhaps it’s the word Sims!!!! If so, Goldy’s filter has a whole lot of company that doesn’t like Sims!!
I’m sure Dino is shaking in his boots knowing you’re on his case.
After the Irons affair you have been exposed as a *very* poor man’s David Brock. Dealing in salacious gossip at the behest of politicians and their hacks who won’t publicly acknowledge or associate with you because your tactics are so repulsive.

“Initiative 912 supporters have filed a complaint with the state alleging that the Department of Transportation has violated state law by campaigning against the anti-gas-tax measure.”
misfire @ 13
Not ashamed at all. Just wondering what your obsession is with the guy. If you were SO confident in Gregoire’s re-election, he would be a non-entity to you. Yet you Lefties doth protest…
As for landslides, Gregoire is doing everything she can to get herself buried in one. First, she goes back on campaign promises (taxes). Then she goes and shows her true Dem colors by rewarding her supporters (Indian “cat-scene-O’s”) in CLEAR violation of the people’s wishes (failed gammmblinng initiative in 2004).
Comment by ConservativeFirst — 10/26/05 @ 2:01 pm
I know her and have worked w/ her. I was one of her Legionnaires…
So, Goldy, it’s not leadership when you don’t publicly take a stand on an issue that will get you nothing politically but it is leadership to take a no new taxes stand in a close election then reverse yourself once elected?
As I’ve said, I am voting against 912, but if you can excuse the Governor for her flip-flop, why can’t you do the same for Rossi not taking any stand?
CF@19
So this GUY…Rossi…says he wants to be the leader of the State of Washington.
So this GUY…Rossi…won’t take a stand on an important public policy issue that requires, well, leadership.
Not much of a leader then is he?
Forget about Rossi! Where’s Waldo?
Comment by rujax206— 10/26/05 @ 2:38 pm
“So this GUY…Rossi…says he wants to be the leader of the State of Washington.”
He does, where did he say that? He said that in 2004, he lost that election. As a result, until announcing he’s running again, he is a private citizen.
“So this GUY…Rossi…won’t take a stand on an important public policy issue that requires, well, leadership.”
I didn’t realize there was a requirement for a private citizen to take a stand on an issue, simply because a left wing blogger demands that he or she does does so.
“Not much of a leader then is he?”
Where’s Christine? Maybe she’s being fitted for a red and white striped shirt and hat. I’d say she’s shown even less leadership than you’ve accused Rossi of showing.
I would think the Governor would be out stumping for the defeat of I-912, since she used a lot of political capital to get the gas tax passed. Maybe she doesn’t want to be so closely associated with a losing cause, further damaging her already fragile standing with the public.
Gee CF I suppose she’s afraid YOU’LL think even less of her.
Dino-Sore is a chump.
Rujax,
Do you have anything intelligent to say or is it all insults?
If you read the article posted by Conservativefirst, you will see that this is just a complaint filed by some whiny pro-912 koolaid drinker who doesn’t like the fact that WSDOT has told people what it is doing with their money and what won’t get built if 912 passes. Also, the PDC isn’t even going to consider the complaint, which was passed on to some ethics board.

What was Gary Locke’s position on I695? or any of the rest of Eyeman’s initiatives? And how did I695 do on the ballot? Does that mean that Locke wasn’t a good leader?
Comment by rujax206— 10/26/05 @ 3:51 pm
“Gee CF I suppose she’s afraid YOU’LL think even less of her.”
Unlikely, since I didn’t vote for her last time. I think Gregoire should be worried about the people that voted for her last time. Given her track record thus far, they may not do so again.
“Dino-Sore is a chump.”
How can I argue with such well founded reasoning? Apparently I have no alternative but to capitulate and agree with your assertion.

Michael wasn’t asking for Locke’s opinion on I-912. Did you even read his post? Locke’s opinion on I-695 certainly would have been relevant since he was governor at the time. If he didn’t give an opinion, then he’d be even worseleader than Goldy is accusing Rossi being (or not being, I guess).

What that propaganda piece (not “information”) boils down to is, if we do not play by the Republicans’ rules they’re going to cry and go home. Fuck them.
Republicans sure are big fans of do-overs! Now, if a jury votes 11-1 against the death penalty, they want the prosecutor to get another try for the d.p. with a new jury! Republicans sure like killing people, too.
In other news, I see the GOPers are crawling to Big Oil pleading to lower gas prices, because the GOPers are afraid of being made into Creamed Republican soup in the 2006 elections.
Let’s see what else is going on … Republicans want to cut funding for student financial aid. I guess if you can’t afford college it means your parents are immoral, and you’re immoral too.
Now Rog….easy big bunny!
I know you are a stud with a high testosterone level.
After all, you did have sex with your grade school teacher….or is that just an ugly rumor???
Hmmm … things aren’t looking so good for the fascists … in addition to having to run on a war-torture-treason platform, the Greed Party also must answer for …
1) a growing number of Americans without health insurance
2) a $5.15 minimum wage
3) a flood of undocumented immigrant workers
4) shipping millions of American jobs overseas
5) massive corporate pension defaults
6) trying to hand over Social Security to Wall Street sharks
7) raging inflation in housing, fuel, and food costs
You can fuck over people only so much before they fuck you back. The GOP is history. It is being destroyed. The people will remember this fucking for the next 50 years. Republicans are done, toast, kaput. We’re not talking about the straw that broke the camel’s back, we’re talking about a planeload of cluster bombs that turned the camel into fertilizer!

You’re the idiot with egg on your face. Nobody else — Right or Left — had a problem with Goldy correcting the headline. YOU are the jackass who should bunny-hump himself. Perhaps you got your Kool-Aid mixed up with your Alzheimer’s medicine. You see anyone to the Right of Kucinich and your gums are a’flappin’. You tried to insult ConservativeFirst with your “learn to read” comment when it is YOU who needs to learn to read.
I also realized that my Bob Barker comment may not apply to you. Old age (and undoubtedly a social disease or two) have already rendered you impotent. So go on… have fun dry-bunny-humping everything that moves. You’ll get the same pity as a horny-yet-neutered house pet.
How’s this for leadership:
Christine Gregoire says she has no plan B if this initiative passes. Tell us how that kind of a cynical attitude from our governor helps the state, Goldy.
Which of these should we more reasonably expect: the Governor’s Plan B (using the money that is NOT voted away by I912) or a statement from Private Citizen Rossi?
If I912 passes, over 40 % of the 2005 new road funding coming from the rest of the legislation not voted down will remain – over 3.2 billion dollars remain unaffected by this initiative – roughly the same amount of money raised by the 2003 nickel package.
Here’s Plan B, Governor: Spend the $3.2 billion on roads.
how lucky we are, first christmas hag, then zippity doo damn near nothing arriving…..who next? Chardofstale bread?
Hate to break this to you Goldy but Rossi was a guest on the John Carlson show about 2 weeks ago and clearly represented his stand on 912. It seems you and your liberal freinds need to turn channels from CNN and Air America to Fox news and KVI to get the real news on the issues!

Well maybe he is just not a flat out liar like Queen Christine, who headlined ad all over campaign web page all the times Rossi had raised taxes, but that she, never ever ever ever had raised taxes on the people of Washington. Well she no longer needs to keep a back-up of that page, cause she won’t be able to lie about her tax raising any more. Bring on 2008 and Rossi can post all her tax hikes on his web page. GO Rossi!
Comment by Roger Rabbit— 10/26/05 @ 7:16 pm
“journalists must be objective”
HA (repeated).
Dan Rather is a journalist but he doesn’t seem very objective to me.
“activists are, by definition, partisan.”
Here’s the definition of activism:
“The use of direct, often confrontational action, such as a demonstration or strike, in opposition to or support of a cause.”
An activist isn’t “by definition” partisan, since they are tied to a cause. If you are implying political activists are always partisans, I’d generally agree with you. I’d also think there are exceptions to this rule.
Roger Rabbit-79 ‘Harriet Miers withdrew her name from nomination for SCOTUS; wonder what bush-league lawyer Shrub will pick next.’
Finally a Bush move that brings the country together. Thanks GW.
Prediction – the next pick will be a true conservative, hopefully in the mold of Scalia or Bork. It will drive the lefties wild and take Plamegate, Delaygate, etc. off the airwaves for the next two months, which will increase the tizzy-fit even more.

That there is funny stuff…..I don’t care who you are!
“Roger: Why don’t you get your own blog instead of clogging up the threads around here with your various off-topic musings? You obviously have a lot to write about……”
This is what you call skipping over threads?
“Roger Rabbit thinks he’s a stud cuz he claims to have had sex with his grade school teacher”
When did I ever claim that? I never claimed that. You’re a liar.
Where’s McGavick?

Roger—@99
Where in heck is your sense of humor???
We read for months on end about all your conquests and thousands of rabbits running around with your genes in ’em.
Some of those Rabbits have 3 eyes, 2 noses, 4 tails and 5 legs.
It only stands to reason you’ve been so outta control you were humping your mom and other siblings & offspring!
Keep your sense of humor. As long as you are posting under names like Roger Rabbit and ChimpPatrol plus the past 93 other names you’ve posted under, you’ve gotta expect a little funnin’!!!
You ain’t turning into one of them there “humorless” LEFTIST PINHEADS on me, are ya?
@26:
Sorry, I stand corrected. The article was on Tuesday, Oct. 25th Seattle PI; not yesterday. Check it out.
Mr. Cynical @ 97:
Did you get that joke from Larry the Cable Guy on “Blue Collar Comedy?” Those guys, particularly, Larry the Cable Guy, are a scream!

Why should McGavick tell us whether he’s going to vote for I-912? He’s a private citizen who will never hold public office, so we don’t need to know.
101
ChimpPatrol? I didn’t post under ChimpPatrol. I haven’t seen that one. Who’s ChimpPatrol?
Hey Cynical, we all know your sense of humor consists of running over baby rabbits on Aurora Avenue! I’ve seen you do it!! SQUISH — there goes another of my kids! Not to worry, I can always make more. HA HA HA HA HA HA

“Why should McGavick tell us whether he’s going to vote for I-912? He’s a private citizen who will never hold public office, so we don’t need to know. ”
Actually he’s not just a private citizen, but also a U.S. Senate candidate. How can you be sure he’ll never hold public office? Did you get the inside scoop on the 2006 election results from yourself? (You’re Dean Logan right?)

McGavick set to run against Cantwell”
Goldy you need a SC Nominee prediction thread. Predictions only! No squabling. Ties will be broken by timestamp. The winner gets…
Nothing.
Libertarian @ 103–
I must confess….yes, I did steal that joke from Larry the Cable Guy. Forgive me Lord and bless all the Pygmy’s in Africa!
Roger Rabbit@84
You have the nerve to laugh? Do you know Rossi’s stand on I-912? No, fuck no because you dont listen to balanced news or radio! But keep laughing. As a matter of fact tune into Leykis for your news, it is probably more truthful than the bullshit you read/listen to/ watch!
Washington Levies Sales Tax above National Median; Cigarette Tax Fourth Highest in the Nation:
Washington levies a 6.5% general sales or use tax on consumers, well above the national median of 5%. The state collects approximately $1,347 per person per year in sales taxes (highest in the nation). Washington’s gasoline tax stands at $0.28 per gallon (3rd highest), while its cigarette tax stands at $1.425 per pack of twenty (4th highest). The sales tax was adopted in 1933, the gasoline tax in 1921 and the cigarette tax in 1935.
According to this site: http://www.taxfoundation.org/r.....ic/65.html
it takes Washingtonians working until April 20th to cover their Tax burden… Thats the 8th worst in the country…
I guess we should stop buying crap we don’t need, move closer to work and quit smoking cigars! wait… did I just say that!
