Gregoire vs JEBBY vs Crist
and, I might add ... vs. Granholm (also a Democratic Governor) who signed her state up for gambling so fast they musta felt like they were on a roulette wheel.
I really think that's behind all this traveling gypsy status. The caravan from state to state ergo the vote to get gambling signed sealed and delivered.
Because, why should we give a flyin fuck? I mean the gambling will do us all so good ... look what it's done for GA, TN, MI, PA and every other state it's screwed it's way into. Lots of money in gambling, I hear. (gimme mine LOL and we can stop poking pins in you I toldya I won't shut up til the water's right and you fuck these bikers into some semblance of decency)
Anyway ... read this actually SANE discussion between a Democratic Governor and a TRIBE concerning gambling revenues.
Was there any bullshit from the Dept of the Interior over MAKE A DEAL or ELSE? NOPE, doesn't appear to be.
MY GOD this governor actually discussed items of mutual interest to her state and the Spokane Indians (infrastructure, ecosystem, etc....) I was S T U N N E D. Fricking STUNNED.
Compare this to the THROUGH THE DOG DOOR off into the sunset discussion (READ NONE NOT ONE WORD OF PUBLIC INPUT) over slithering gambling into Florida.
Just wanted you jackasses to know I noticed.
You can pretend all you want but we all know ... most importantly I KNOW.
Hats off to Chrsstine Gregoire.
There's a BIG BIG money battle going on for the governorship of Washington State.
There's ALOT at stake:
GAMBLING. BIG MO FO MONEY.
I'm clipping you an excerpt so you are aware of ALL the choices that Charlie didn't even bother putting BEFORE the public.
That's okay.
You only elected him to represent you.
BUT, HE IS representing the Republican Association of Governors who are spending MILLIONS to get Ms. Gregoire replaced with Republican Dino Rossi.
Now, there's a place your money would be helpful.
Attack ads distort deal Gregoire rejected on casinos
In one of the most sustained attacks of the gubernatorial race, the Republican Governors Association has spent millions of dollars on ads tossing around terms like "payoff" and "quid pro quo" to accuse Gregoire of nixing the revenue-sharing casino deal because of her cozy relationship with tribes. That's a cartoonish distortion of what occurred.

The images are sinister: Gov. Christine Gregoire kills a deal that would have given Washington a $140 million-a-year share in profits from Indian casinos. A forklift stacks bundles of tribal cash onto a truck for her re-election campaign.
In one of the most sustained attacks of the gubernatorial race, the Republican Governors Association has spent millions of dollars on ads tossing around terms like "payoff" and "quid pro quo" to accuse Gregoire of nixing the revenue-sharing deal because of her cozy relationship with tribes.
That's a cartoonish distortion of what occurred in 2005 when Gregoire rejected a proposed deal with the Spokane Tribe of Indians that would have given Washington, for the first time, a share of casino cash — a common practice in other states.
At the time, the idea was widely panned by both Republicans and Democrats, who feared the trade-off for casino money would be a virtually uncontrolled explosion in gambling.
Until this election season, few claimed it would have been a great deal.
Nevertheless, there are plenty of critics of the agreement Gregoire subsequently reached with the Spokanes and other tribes. That deal eliminated revenue sharing yet authorized more than 8,000 new electronic slot machines statewide. It was part of the largest expansion of tribal gambling in more than a decade.
Republican challenger Dino Rossi says he'd be a tougher negotiator, suggesting he'd demand a share of casino profits for the state. But he has avoided specifics on how much further expansion of gambling he'd authorize in exchange.
Gregoire says she is no fan of gambling and argues she cut the best deal she could with the tribes, which are guaranteed the right to run casinos under federal law. She called the $140 million figure in the ads "totally fictitious."
Fueled by casino wealth, Washington's Indian tribes have become increasingly important political patrons for Gregoire and the state Democratic Party, contributing more than $1 million since 2003, according to the state Public Disclosure Commission (PDC).
Rossi has said the tribes "laundered" that money to Gregoire's campaign. But those contributions were legal and are not under any PDC investigation.
Here are some key questions and answers to sort out the charges and countercharges:
Q: What was that revenue-sharing deal that Gregoire killed?
A: In 2005, the Washington State Gambling Commission reached a tentative deal with the Spokanes aimed at ending years of legal disputes over the tribe's casinos, which were running slot machines the state deemed illegal. (Other tribes previously signed agreements, called compacts, which regulate casino operations.)
The Spokane compact would have authorized 7,500 electronic slot machines, with up to 4,000 at any single casino — double what the state then allowed for most other tribes. The deal also could have paved the way for off-reservation casinos by waiving the governor's veto authority\\
Wow imagine the little people of Florida:
YOUR governor could have DEMANDED a veto of off-casino gambling.
Huh.
Where is that big bully the Dept of Interior in Washington State?
Are they just pickin on us cause we're ignert crackers?
Or transplanted dumb yankees?
