Special Session is on for Saturday. Now that the Camas Manikin has hit the bigs, will she once again blow session off?
After all, she blew a lot of it off earlier this year so she could fund raise, while her seatmate, Rep. Kevin Parker (R-Spokane) pressed the buttons so it would show she had "voted," even when she wasn't around.
So, is Her Royal Highness going to make it into Olympia?
Or will she, as I suspect, send her regrets?
Stay tuned.

State House Republicans disappear in budget debate.
.
Everyone else in Olympia has weighed in, with some specificity, on the budget debate.
So... what does the House Republicans do? Drop themselves into a pool of irrelevance by sending the Governor a letter with no specific proposals... save dumping all day K in the middle of the year and tightening up on TANF. In addition, allowing reality on the issue of health care premiums for state employees is in there.
But nothing else that I can see.
Read it here for yourself... a page or so memo long on generalities, but short in specifics... and specifics are what we need now.
The House could, and should, do better.
