FLASHPOINT:

What works or doesn’t work in D.C. can work or not work in Carson City

Monday, Feb. 2, 2009 | 2 a.m.

What works or doesn’t work in D.C. can work or not work in Carson City. That comes to mind vis-a-vis Clark County GOP Chairman Bernie Zadrowski’s latest missive to the faithful as he urges state GOP lawmakers to emulate their House counterparts on more government spending: “Nevadans are facing tough economic times just like the rest of the country, perhaps even worse. Therefore, now is not the time to be saddling the backs of Nevada families with more tax burden. Even the Democrats in Congress recognized that their own ‘stimulus’ package had to contain tax breaks. If they could understand this, surely our Republican state legislators will as well.” Call it the Gibbons-Zadrowksi Doctrine.
