What a complete, total, pompous, arrogant a##.
It's ALL A PR STUNT. NICE TRY, GOV'NER GYM!
However, the vetoes just makes you look more DENSE. and SHALLOW. That you act without THOUGHT or regard for anyone but GOV'NER GYM GIBBINS. How terribly out of touch you are, Gym. Now take your empty pen and go home.
Veto of raising taxes is a good thing if you are a successful hardworking American. If you are a lazy freeloader loser like gmag39 then you only want rich people to pay more taxes. Get a real job or shut up.
Wake up Las Vegas, and Nevada. Please figure out a way to throw your Governor out of office. His veto of the Domestic Partnership bill means that many thousands will skip coming to your great city. I've been to Vegas almost twice a year for several years and I refuse to spend my money, anywhere in Nevada, supporting a moron like Gibbons.
If Gibbons is Governor, I stay away from VEGAS.
