Look, nobody is going to accuse Gov. Jay Inslee of being the hardest-working man around. His frequent late arrivals to the office and large blocks of “workout time” on his calendar attest to that (Source [1] [2] [3] [4]).
If his life was a Dos Equis ad, he’d be The Most Uninterested Guy in the World.
Yep, if Inslee’s legislative influence was expressed as a movie title, you’d have to choose “The Man Who Wasn’t There.”
Worthy of FAIL Blog
How did Inslee manifestly fail this year? Let us count but a few of the ways.
- No carbon tax. There is nothing in this world Jay Inslee wants more than a carbon tax. After all, he wrote the book on it, as he incessantly reminded voters in 2012.The Legislature isn’t so hot on the idea. Inslee loyalists file carbon tax bills every session, but neither chamber has ever even voted on the idea. Inslee simply doesn’t have the votes or legislative support for his most fervent wish. Ever notice how Inslee’s failures are good for your pocketbook?
- No capital gains income tax. Inslee does have legislative support for this one – at the very least, a good chunk of House Democrats support this one. It’s funny, though. This one, too, hasn’t been brought to a vote by the House. Democrats have never proven that they have the 50 votes needed to pass one. Regardless, credit Senate Republicans with keeping this new tax dead as a doornail in Olympia.
- Totally ignored on levy swap. Candidate Jay Inslee slammed a proposal for a levy swap to fund education in 2012. Some thought it was just campaign talk, but he continued badmouthing the idea as governor.So how did lawmakers end up addressing the McCleary case? With a levy swap. Despite Inslee’s protest, legislative Democrats conceded to one, and all Inslee could do was meekly sign it.
- Did absolutely nothing about Hirst or The Evergreen State College crises. Legislators needed to address the atrocious Hirst ruling by the state Supreme Court, which has effectively halted new building in rural areas of the state.
Inslee was remarkably blasé about the problem, telling legislators in the spring that they needed to settle McCleary and the budget first. When they did, he still didn’t act like Hirst was important. When the House and Senate adjourned without fixing Hirst or passing a capital budget, Inslee as usual blamed Senate Republicans for everything. But a solution? He doesn’t have one. Could it be Inslee secretly likes halting all development in rural Washington? Many of his closest allies do.
And when ridiculous protests were wracking The Evergreen State College, with students screaming at professors and administrators, wackos calling in death threats, and vigilante protestors carrying bats to intimidate people, where was Inslee? The most he deigned to do was to say in a press release that he was monitoring the situation.
Yet Inslee found plenty of time, while ignoring Hirst and the deteriorating situation at Evergreen, to meet with the leaders of Mexico, Canada, and Chile of all places. Last week he took the time to address the “casual video game” industry. What a busy guy!
Some day we will have an adult in charge but until that day having a lazy liberal works just fine. The less they do the fewer regulations they shove down our throats.
If Seattle Dems stay in power to SCREW our state even MORE do not HOLD your breath! This LYING POS Do nothing but TAX FAKE Governor, Obama Clone should be impeached TODAY!
I’d like to see him return to the farm for his workouts…shoveling the actual stuff he flings at us every time his mouth moves!!
AMEN!
Most useless Governor since Dixy Lee Ray
Without Dixy we’d still be driving u s 2 through Snohomish…..at least she got something done
Where’s Scoop when you need him.
Unfortunately the uninformed King County voters control the politics of this state. Here in the 45th District we are trying to avoid socialist Manka Dhingra being our next representative. If she gets in Jay just might get his wish list and he didn’t have to lift a finger or get to the office early. Outside leftist groups will have their puppets in place.
Why is Manka Dhingra leading in the 45th District senate race? Jinyoung Lee Englund is a superior candidate, so why do so many people in the district dislike her?
Now that Dhingra has won decisively, returning control of our state Senate to the Democrats, perhaps Jay Inslee will perk up and get interested again?
I’m sure Shift would love an activist Gov. Inslee, one who has support of Democratic majorities in both houses, correct?
A coworkers spouse is Jay Inslee’s cousin, he’s such an idiot that my coworker said that he campaigned at a family reunion a few months before his first election. What sort of loser has to campaign at a family reunion to convince his own relatives to vote for him? Perhaps if more of the population knew what a dork the guy is he wouldn’t have been elected the first time much less the second time. But then again, liberals would vote for Bozo the Clown if he ran for office as a Democrat.
There was talk of this IDIOT making a run for the White House….lololololol! Please, please, please!
The less time Inslee spends in the office, the better off this state is.
The gang at Shift still torments themselves by recalling how easily Inslee walked to re-election?
Of all the total failures at “shifting the debate in Olympia“, Shift’s complete and utter impotence regarding the one target it has most relentlessly attacked really stands atop the list. How many more status quo elections do we need before Shift concedes it has failed in its own stated mission?
