Well, he’s doin’ it. Governor Jim “I Did Not Text That Woman” Gibbons has decided to go for it and sue the Feds over the new healthcare bill. GJG says the bill is unconstitutional. I know what you’re saying…”Jim Gibbons has read the Constitution?” Probably not…but he’s goin’ through with it anyway. This, even after Nevada Attorney General Catherine Cortez-Masto said she wouldn’t file suit. Here’s my problem with all this…
Since a lawsuit against the Feds won’t work, I figure Jimmy-Wiggles is just doin’ this to show off his Teabagger bona fides. After all, he’s running for reelection and he’s about as popular right now as redundant root canal surgery. That being said, he needs the Teabaggers a lot more than they need him. But what really chaps my ass is the fact that he’s using State money to pursue a purely political venture that doesn’t help the state of Nevada in any way. Yo Guv…you’ve wasted three years of taxpayer money by taking a salary. When you were supposed to be workin’, you were letting your little head think for your big head. Now, in the middle of our state’s financial clusterfuck, you’re gonna spend our tax money on this boondoggle. Aye caramba! No worries Jim…you’ll be out on your ass soon enough. Problem is…today wouldn’t be soon enough. True dat!

why is he even bothering, just a waste of good money on lawyers.
I think he's just trying to accumulate brownie points from the Teabaggers. Given his past performance, he's gonna need every one of 'em.
Thganks for posting a comment and reading PTB!
There were already enough states in on the action, so you're probably right that Gibbons' move to sue the fed is more for political show than for any real substance... then again so was the health care bill.. and that wastes a hell of a lot more tax dollars than a frivolous lawsuit does. The CBO is now projecting that Obama-Pelosi will have us spending 90% of the GDP on our debt by 2020. Why does that concern you less?
Yo Dave...
I was wonderin' where you were bro. Glad to see you back!
I figure if it's ok to be spending lives and money and world-wide reputation on the military-industrial complex, might as well spend some money on the poor folks. They could use the help.
