Tax Day Irony from the General Assembly

After posting today's calender...I noticed a very ironic thing. There will be several committee meetings dealing with Appropriations in the General Assembly today, and a meeting on Economic Recovery after the House and Senate sessions are over.

I would think that they'd not seek ways to "appropriate" our money on Tax Day. Especially a Tax Day when thousands of North Carolinians will be in the streets protesting profligate spending and over-taxation.

The gall...
