Seattle Times: The people of Washington didn’t vote against Tim Eyman’s latest Initiative 1033 because the opposing campaign spent more [“Eyman’s tax initiative loses,” News, Nov. 4].
In my opinion, they voted it down because they understood it was a bad law, and they are sick of Eyman. Personally, I am very tired of his incessant initiatives, and the bombastic and narcissistic approach he takes to getting them passed.
If you want to help govern this state, run for a seat in the bloody Legislature.
Eyman’s main whine with I-1033 was about the Legislature raising taxes. So? It is a fact that the Legislature may need to increase taxes. If demands for services the state of Washington provides don’t decrease, and current tax revenues do not rebound, raising taxes will be a necessity.
We don’t need Eyman to save us from this; we need him to quit wasting election dollars on self-serving, narrow-minded, unnecessary attempts at lawmaking.

Very good web site. Nice commenting system. I am sorry for the off-topic post, yet I was incredibly pleased with Djokovic’s play in the final of the Australia OPen this year. The guy is definitely unequalled. He revealed he was as sturdy as steel. Simply imagine about he he could whip Nadal who was so motivated to gain and was really so energized up during the fifth set. I’m beginning to consider that Djokovic has been doing some religious work to take some forces on his side which help him win these kinds of matches against the best players in the world
