Another shining (more like a black eye) example of Democratic bait and switch tactics gone bad. Washington state has one of the highest fuel taxes in the country. Gary Lock has had ample opportunity to create and implement a transportation package. He made a promise and then reneged on it all the while laying blame on the Republicans in the form of vicious attacks. He will get everything he deserves including the wrath of angry citizens for his deception although this is such a socialistic State that any vote to the people asking to raise their fuel tax rates by 9 cents will probably pass. Then again maybe the sheep have educated themselves enough and come to their senses, seeing through the ruse. M seattletimes.nwsource.com, July 26, 2001 - 12:00 a.m. Pacific During last year's gubernatorial campaign and throughout most of this year's legislative session, Locke said he would insist voters get final say on any new statewide transportation taxes. But the governor later switched his position and began pressing lawmakers to approve the gas-tax package in Olympia.
