Well, Ted . . .

Somebody's got to pay for them corporate tax breaks Butch has been givin'
away.

Killin' Idaho Public Television is a win-win for The Guv.

Live public online access to the Idaho state legislature, via IPTV's
website at http://www.idahoptv.org/leglive/, will be tossed into the
archives under the heading "Remember when . . . " as he can continues to
hand out them corporate tax breaks.

If things get too dang financially snug, he can always jack up taxes on
homeless shelters.  It ain't like them homeless pay income or property
tax, right?

Seeya round town, Moscow.

"Corporations are an oppressed minority forced to move headquarters from
state to state in search of friendlier tax codes--sometimes being forced
to live just off our shores in tiny mailboxes."
