So, apparently saying no to everything is now a valid policy position. At least, wannabe candidate Paradise Valley resident Vernon Parker thinks so.
He has started a committee to oppose any sort of initiative to increase revenue for the current budget deficit. Does that mean that he thinks the voters should have a voice? Does he advocate that something should go to the ballot? I seriously doubt it. This smacks of a political ploy to get his name in the paper once again.
Basically, he is forming a committee to say “No.” That’s it. He doesn’t have a plan of his own, he just knows that anyone else’s plan is bad. WHAT VISION! WHAT CHARISMA!
Seriously, this is not what I had in mind when I said that whomever wants to run for Governor needs an actual plan. In fact, this is about as far away from a plan as one could get. This latest rhetoric is no better than the “reduce spending – cut taxes” schtick that he started with earlier this year.
Well, Mr. Paradise Valley, why don’t you let the rest of us proles know how you would actually fix the problem. Apparently, the budget doesn’t look as bad when its in shadows of the sunset of Camelback Mountain.

You know what they say about opening your mouth…every time Parker says something it confirms he is over his head, has no plan, no clue, and is just a puppet of his PR flack.

Vernon is a real Republican who will never raise our taxes, unlike the RINO who is our current governor.

Vernon Parker is a counterfeit Republican without a clue on how to solve the current budget crises. The first time I heard of Mr. Parker was when he came out and endorsed Tony Bouie for the Arizona House from LD 6 against Carl Seel in 2008. Mr. Bouie was a life long Democrat who changed his party registration only five days before filing for the Arizona House as a Republican. Bouie was also being supported by James LeVecke and other people from the Wake Up Arizona Coalition which was formed to oppose the Russell Pearce’s employer sanctions law. Yes, support Vernon Parker, the Counterfeit Republican, and help Terry Goddard become governor.

[...] Parker had touted his “no” plan all the way until he bailed on the race altogether to try for greener pastures in a race he might [...]
