Randi spoke about Minnesota's Governor yesterday

[SHRED]

I missed the details but I believe she said he bragged about a Bill he vetoed that would have funded infrastructure repair. The DAY BEFORE!!!

Please...any links...details?

Thanks

2. He vetoed a transportation bill that included a $.05 raise in the gas tax

(hasn't been raised since something like 1988). But it was before the legislative session ended last spring, not the day before. I've noticed that Randi has a tendency to exaggerate at times

On another Minnesota subject, several times she has said that "Wellstone and his whole family" were wiped out. His wife and daughter were killed with him, but he and Sheila are survived by two sons and grandchildren. It alwas kind of annoys me when she does that because I wonder how his sons must feel if they hear it - it's almost as though they don't count.

3. As Randi always says, don't believe me, do your own research n/t

4. And in her case, sometimes that's an absolute necessity. n/t

5. Randi does tend to get details wrong. Occasionally she corrects herself,

but not always. She also has a big problem pronouncing the word "subsidy." Every time she says "substidy" it makes me cringe.
