It seems the Tulsa World took issue with our recent wag of the finger to the new Governor Elect. We’re excited to know you’re reading the blog and welcome your comments here anytime.
Sadly, in their editorial opposition they forgot their OWN editorial just five months ago about Mary Fallin and poor voters.
We don’t think that calling on Oklahomans to help the poor by giving canned food items is a BAD thing. We here at FallinFail think it’s great. In fact - we went so far as to call on the entire government to spend all of the money it’s using for the upcoming Inaugural Balls to go to feed seniors!
What we do take issue with is that this is nothing more than a photo-op. A fake politician, with fake sincerity, who is about to sign bills to cut services to the least among us.
When the Governor Elect was a candidate she was caught saying some pretty bad things about poor people, she’s been caught in some pretty bad votes AGAINST poor people, and now we’re to believe she’s being sincere? Maybe the kids at the Tulsa World were born yesterday, but ya can’t pull the wool over my eyes.
Thus, today we call on the Tulsa World to responsibly report every single instance where funding is cut to any service, school, or center which will prevent the poor from having access to basic food, nutrition, and/or health. If we really want to talk about the hungry and we really want to talk about reducing poverty in Oklahoma, I think we can all agree that the Tulsa World might ought to be along for the ride.
