I don't want to hear any Republican throwing out the same tired old crap in the next election cycle...Spending is down as per the Legislature's non-partisan budget office. Of course, facts never play very well in elections...

Politics blog: Spending of state tax dollars down; overall spending up
The state budget recently passed out of the budget committee cuts spending of state tax dollars over the next two years by 3.2 percent, or $905 million. But overall, including all state and federal funds, the budget spends 6.3 percent more, or $3.7 billion, over those years in large part because of use of federal stimulus dollars. That "all funds" budget spends $62.2 billion over two years. The findings were released today by the Legislature's non-partisan budget office. See the findings here.
