1. Threatening her for what? For doing what the Tea Party wants?

She's cutting the State Budget TO THE BONE, because the toothless, cowardly legislature can't raise revenue without a 2/3 majority, and the initiative process has made new revenue streams (income tax, soda tax) impossible. Very soon WA state will enter an Objectivist paradise; no social services, no safety net, and a population armed to the teeth. But the state roads will be silky smooth because of our dedicated gas taxes.

Maybe she was insufficiently gleeful when she announced the cuts?

3. Funny!

I could not find her political affiliation on her website. I had to go to wikipedia! It is nowhere on her official site.

But I should've known she was a Democrat. She got threatened.

4. Chris is okay in my book.

I would not want to deal with the budget situation left her by the voters and the legislature.
