This statement is ignorant on so many levels. So the Republicans in the State Government in California are responsible for what the Republicans are doing in Washington? Because the Republicans in Washington are running a deficit, does that mean that Democrats all over the nation are now above criticism if they run deficits? Are the macro situations facing the State government in California the same as the Federal government? So in 1993 when the Dems controlled every branch of the federal government and were running deficits, that meant that during that time the Democrats lost all moral standing to critisize Republicans in control of state capitals for runing deficits? Do you really not grasp the ramifications of a two party system?

Agree with everything you said -- except criticizing the Dems for not eliminating the Reagan/Bush deficit within the first year in office -- before they had even passed a budget -- is a little..... much.
