Senator Grothman to Wisconsin residents: You are not smart enough to talk to us

Senator Glenn Grothman (R-West Bend) seems to believe that the general public in Wisconsin is not smart enough to talk to them about the Bride of TABOR and the future of taxation in this state. But hey, it only affects every issue the state faces so why should Wisconsin residents get their say on it?

An article in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel today has Grothman saying this about why he has chosen to exclude the public from the TABOR hearing:

"Right now, I want intelligent, helpful discussions," Grothman said. "It's important this be done right."

Translation - done their way. And that means they don't have to sit and listen to all you pesky taxpayers that want to have a say in this.
