Courtney Cole, the Democratic candidate in the 121st Legislative District, strikes back - with, you know, actual facts:

Hoskins voted to raise our taxes numerous times, but he hasn't even bothered to pay his own taxes on time. 1

1. HCS SS SB 307, a.a. (2009), CCS SSSCS HB 1442 (2010), Johnson County Official records

Hoskins owed over twenty thousand dollars in back taxes. 2

2. Johnson County Official records, The Daily Star Journal, 11/11/2009

A member of the House Budget Committee, Refused to balance the state budget and voted for a budget with a three hundred million dollar deficit. 3

3. HB's 2001, 2001, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 (2010)

Hoskins voted to raise taxes on emergency medical services, including ambulance service, for local patients, while failing to pay seven hundred dollars of his own taxes to Johnson County ambulance services 4

4. HCS SS SB 307, a.a. (2009), The Daily Star Journal, 11/11/2009

Hmmm. Facts rather than bogus assertion, misdirection, and outright misrepresentation.

Cue victimhood with a plaintive cry of "why are people being so mean to me?" in three, two, one...
