Marvel at it:

When asked how North Carolinians could be sure that temporary tax increases would not become permanent, Perdue’s answer was simple.

“Because I’m the governor,” she said.

Frankly, with her skills at justifying a massive tax increase smack-dab in the midst of a severe recession with the state looking at unemployment at 13 percent, the governor had me at think of the children! So her comments were already in the top quintile of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard. Now they have to be in the 99th percentile.

You’re in good hands, North Carolina!
