This is outrageous!
The state is facing an enormous budget deficit.
Instead of asking for Federal aid, President Timmy is pandering to the
right-wing base. Pawlenty is kneeling at the feet of Grover Norquist, hoping
for a Papal blessing.
The state is facing a huge budget deficit. Governors of both parties are
asking for Federal help.
During a bad recession state and local budget cuts make the recession
deeper. The Federal government can run countercyclical budger deficits during a
recession. States can't.
Here is a Star Tribune story: "Pawlenty cool to stimulus proposals"

President Pawlenty would rather slash health care than take Federal money
