(2003-06-10) — Short-circuiting a voter campaign to remove California Gov. Gray Davis through a special election, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) today issued a recall on the faulty politician.
During Mr. Davis’ re-election campaign, CPSC members watched with concern as his claims of fiscal responsibility inflated uncontrollably. Now that he’s in office, the same thing is happening to the state budget deficit, which has ballooned to $38 billion.
“It reminds us of the automobile airbag issue a couple of years ago,” said an unnamed member of the commission. “Those things would just blow up. We’re recalling the product to protect the people of California.”
