Gov. Christie: We're Not Raising Taxes
Gov. Christie: We're Not Raising Taxes - wcbstv.com
On the surface the news looked pretty grim for Garden State residents on Tuesday – thanks to an unanticipated drop in tax revenues of $402 million this year and $365 million next year.
But a new budget hole of nearly $800 million is not going to give Gov. Christie a single new white hair. At least this time, the governor's message is "gotcha covered."
"We're very confident we've been able to close the additional budget gap in (fiscal year) 2010 and in (fiscal year) 2011 we're going to be able to solve that problem without any new taxes at all and without any real significant cuts," Christie said.
Skipping the "fiscalese," what happened was the budget freeze imposed by Gov. Christie when he took office generated more savings than expected, enough to cover much of the lost tax money.

This is terrible timing... for Obama.
When we head towards 2012, Christie, the Anti-Obama will stand as a stark and successful example to follow.
That's a nightmare for for Obi's handlers and teleprompteur.
This guy is a stud. We need more like him.

Conservatives talk about liberals always bringing up Palin but you guys try to link Obama to LITERALLY EVERYTHING.
More ON TOPIC: He'll probably gut education some more.

Gut? You mean tell underperforming teachers no more raises? :ssst:
If that's all he was gutting, I'd have no problem with it. But that's just barely the tip of the iceberg.
Yeah baby! :applaud
Somebody has to do the bloody work of bringing fiscal sanity to the state after decades of abuse and corruption.

Not by gutting the education system. You don't cut off your leg because you have an infection.
