17. Carcieri is an embarassment
He allows his personal religious beliefs to rule his decisions and he is a hypocrite.

-he says no casino but expands gambling in Lincoln and in Newport (apparently video slots do not count)
-he supports strong families but pulls this crap
-he cuts pay for the lowest paid state workers then gives raises to his pals
-he only goes on friendly talk shows who lob softball questions at him and attack his political opposition

The funny thing is they just had a 'discussion' on the 'brain drain' in the state. They refuse to see these policies drive away so many of our brightest young people. My oldest two sons are both looking to leave the state as soon as they finish school because they oppose the right wing slant in the capitol and on the radio.
