The land o’ lakes state’s Democratic Governor Mark Dayton and top Republican state lawmakers failed to reach an agreement to solve the 5 billion dollar budget crisis left behind by his predecessor, Republican Tim Pawlenty, who left Minnesota in shambles in the hope of screwing up all of America as president, because it's always best to aim high.
Many social services will be suspended during the budget crisis such as funding for shelters for victims of domestic abuse, so it is believed the government will be offering Minnesotan women free pamphlets on how to become masters of disguise and/or run faster. Retailers will also feel the pain with loss of revenue due to consumer belt-tightening during the government shutdown, but it will be hard for lawmakers to hear them screaming as they’ve already left as we are writing this to go pike fishing on Lake Minnetonka.
One Democratic lawmaker spoke with Unsolicited Drivel on condition of anonymity stating, “It was really much like what is going on in Washington. Republicans are always elected on a platform of magical thinking of creating a dreamland with no taxes, which is how we ended up in this fiscal national nightmare. Their constant refusal to comprise is not very adult behavior either, but I suppose that since our Rep. Michele Bachmann has convinced them that John Quincy Adams founded our democracy despite being 9 years old at the time, they think that it’s perfectly okay to govern like children.”
