Lima Gives a Short Budget Heads-Up

Marc Comtois

Rep. Charlene Lima (D-Cranston) was on the Dan Yorke Show to talk about license plates, but Dan steered the conversation to the budget. Lima stated that the budget would be out next Tuesday and that, from what she was hearing, the emphasis was on budget cuts and not tax increases. She also indicated that some fees would increase. Finally, she clarified that, though a member of the leadership, she wasn't privy to the ongoing, high-level negotiations. Hm.

Not privy to the details? My arse. She's in on all those discussions. Maybe a more apt description is that she doesn't understand it all. She's a dunce.

Well, apparently she was privy enough to have her head turned around on eVerify from last year.

What does she do when she hears 'privy' info?

Put her hand over her ears and go "lalalalalalalalalalalalalala" ?

They are all useless on the hill.

I've been pretty hard on Grace Diaz,but Lima makes her sound like Einstein.
