Kampf supports the GOP Budget???? Which one?????

Back in March, Kampf had this to say.... http://www.repkampf.com/NewsItem.aspx?NewsID=10720

Note..that budget had large cuts to education...

Hold the phone.... with the backlash to education cuts, Kampf changed his story....http://www.repkampf.com/NewsItem.aspx?NewsID=11344

And finally, he is now a friend to education funding... http://www.repkampf.com/NewsItem.aspx?NewsID=11472

Let's review. First, he praised Corbett's budget... Then the oh shit moment happened when the GOP A - saw what is happening in Wisconsin and B - realized that the PSEA has political clout. In true political fashion, Kampf is now taking credit for "restoring educational funding: http://mainlinemedianews.com/articles/2011/05/31/main_line_suburban_life/opinion/doc4de4fae7ec57d661500200.txt

What Kampf is not really saying is that while some funding was restored, the cuts still amount to $700 Million. AND - the $'s restored to education are being taken out of the Dept. of Public Welfare. Programs like domestic violence protection programs for women are going to get slashed. The Dept. of Public Welfare is the chief oversight arm for day care operations. In addition, they manage and administer many of the social programs that the weakest and least powerful of our citizens require to survive. Unfortunately for them, they don't a powerful to carry political water for them.

And all the while, gas and oil companies who take their marcellus shale profits out of the state (in spite of the environmental damage they inflict) are not assessed a well-head tax. Unlike the poorest and weakest among us, they don't have a powerful lobbying arm. That however, won't stop Kampf from scoring a few political points on their backs. His LIBERAL use of the word restore is also disturbing. They haven't restored anything. They are still cutting education to the tune of over a half billion dollars!!

As to taxes.... :) Well, locally, we are getting hit with at least a 3.77% tax increase. While Kampf can claim he isn't in our pockets, the gap is still going have to be made up by us the taxpaying public. Politicans like Kampf always put blinders on to that fact. Remember, Kampf is the same guy who told you that it was OK to increase the sewer FEE because it's a FEE...not a TAX. And when he cut fire funding....and then took political credit with his big check moment????? Now that he's a state rep, he's doing the same thing...just on a different scale. And to humanize it in his editorial where he takes credit, he has to remind us he's a father... He used his kids and family as political props then...and he's still doing it today.

Warren Kampf cares about one thing...and one thing only...his political future (AKA his job). He told me in an interview that he "Wants to make a living as an elected official."And as he rises higher and higher, the more people just become nameless and faceless statistics on a report.

He's turning out to be precisely the kind of state rep I pegged him to be.

And where is he on the Paoli TS Project?????
