Getting out the big eraser
Members of the Fla. House and Senate judiciary committees don't even attempt to mask their contempt for the voters as they move to erase three decades of voter initiatives and make new ones harder to pass.
"My desire would be not to add things, only to remove things based on the Constitution,'' said Webster, an Orlando Republican.
Oh well, that's different. What harm in removing separation of church of state, open records requirements, the privacy amendment and of course that horrid minimum wage amendment? It's just an erasure. Not like we're actively rewriting the Constitution to eliminate voter input or anything. Right?
