“KIRNER TAX” AUTHOR LAID
OUT IN RENO SMACKDOWN
The Reno
Republican Women’s Club hosted a debate yesterday between moderate Assemblyman Randy “Kirner Tax” Kirner (RINO-Kirner
Tax) and his conservative challenger, Lisa
Krasner…and it sure sounds like Krasner emerged as the clear winner.
“Republican
challenger Lisa Krasner wasted no time Thursday in attacking Assembly District
26 incumbent Randy Kirner in the first Northern Nevada political debate of the
2014 election year,” Ray Hagar of
the Reno Gazette-Journal reported on
his blog last night.
Krasner
reportedly hit Kirner for his support of the Kirner Tax - an effort to circumvent
the Gibbons Tax Restraint law by shifting responsibility for approving a Washoe
County tax hike from legislators to county commissioners.
She
said that if elected she wouldn’t vote to extend the $600 million worth of “temporary”
tax hikes the way Kirner has…twice.
She
pointed out that she has signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge, which Kirner
has refused to sign.
And she
said that, if elected, she will uphold the Republican Party Platform, a
document that Kirner appears to have never even heard about, let alone read.
For his
part, it appears the only reason Kirner could give to justify his re-election
is that he’s on the Assembly Ways and Means Committee.
The Pork and Bacon Committee. Big
whoop.
By the way, Kirner is also on the
Taxation Committee. And based on his
voting record it seems these committees are a natural fit for the Reno RINO because
he’s found all kinds of ways and means to raise taxation during his two terms
in office!
The thin-skinned
Kirner, clearly defensive over his support for the Kirner Tax, refused to discuss
the Kirner Tax during the debate. “I
could talk about AB46 (the Kirner Tax),” the Kirner Tax author told the audience, “but I think
that has already been aired at the county (level) and I am not going to air it
here.”
I
bet not!
I
mean, how do you justify your support for multiple tax hikes in front of a room
full of anti-tax Republicans?
“I
appreciate the fact that (Krasner) is not an incumbent and so her only pathway
to the position is to find fault with me and to make campaign promises, which I
call rhetoric,” Kirner told Hagar after the debate. “But when you look at my
record, it is a stellar record in terms of working for the people and
delivering results.”
She
didn’t find fault with Kirner; she found fault with his lousy voting record.
And
it’s not “rhetoric.” It’s called taking
a position…something Gumby Republicans like Assemblyman Kirner-Tax are loathe
to do. They prefer to stand for nothing…which
is why they so often fall for anything.
And
the only results Kirner has delivered to the people are higher taxes, more spending,
bigger government, drivers licenses for people in the country illegally, Nevada’s
version of ObamaCare and expanded Medicaid.
Oh,
and he single-handedly killed a bill last session that would have given the
parents of children stuck in a perpetually failing public school the power to
vote to convert the school to a charter school.
Bring
on Conservageddon!
TITUS INKS THE PLEDGE
Dr. Robin Titus, conservative
candidate for Nevada Assembly District 38, has signed
the Taxpayer Protection Pledge. She’s
running to replace serial tax-hiking Assemblyman Tom Grady, who is mercifully being termed out of office this year.
