He wants to slam the working poor with a minimum $1300 per year fee.... just to start with... to go to work on the other side of the river. And he wants to do that to put his union buds to work building a bridge we don't need, don't want and can't afford.
He wants to burden Clark County with an economic black hole that will suck tens of millions of dollars out of our local economy.
He wants to take the food out of our kid's mouths, the clothes off their backs and the roofs from over their heads.
And he's not the only one.
Every democrat running here locally wants the same thing... particularly Steve "Easy Money" Stuart.
But Kampe tells us that if there's going to be tolls, he wants a county-wide vote.
Oh... he dresses it up:
Kampe supports a new bridge over the Columbia River, but he opposes including light rail as part of the project and also opposes tolling Clark County commuters to pay for the bridge unless voters approve tolls in an election.
The problem is this: there will not be a bridge without tolls. And there will be tolls without a vote.
And Kampe knows it.
See, what Kampe is doing is trying to hide his positions... like his support for that absurd, unconstitutional state income tax that he thinks so highly of.
And that seems to be the problem with democrats this year. At the federal level, they seem to be sprinting away from Obama, the stimulus and Obamacare. Locally, they're sprinting away from their positions on the tax initiatives and the state income tax plan.
And Kampe is no exception.
