I hear the Train a' comin'... Railroaded Twins Stadium
My throat is a little soar. Yours would be to if you had a Fricken' Twins Stadium rammed down your throat.

Alright, it's not official yet. The Governor has to sign the bill. So we are toast.

This thing really angers me because the polls show that close to 70% of the population doesn't want it. The people have spoken against the stadium for years, but the politicians won't listen. I pay more taxes, the billionaire Pohlads get some corporate welfare, and the people of Minnesota get screwed.

I'm going to watch to see who voted for this crap. I want to make it my mission to see that they are all removed from office, Democrat or Republican, I don't care. Why have elected officials that refuse to listen to We The People.
