If you need to balance a budget you need to do it fairly. Corporate tax cuts to stimulate the economy are the trickle down effects little brother. The savings they get from these bills rarely go into the workers pocket, much like how the tax savings to rich in the trickle down only really serve to make the rich richer, rather than making them spend more money.
Don't you have homework to do? a union rally to attend in Madison?

Anyway, Where was the newspaper's interest in this prior to Nov?

In 2004, The Oregonian reported that Wu, as a student at Stanford University in 1976, was disciplined for trying to force an ex-girlfriend to have sex.

Wu had refused interview requests for months and hired an attorney, Michael Simon, who aggressively attacked the paper's reporting and sought to stop publication. When the story ran three weeks before the election, Wu quickly apologized for his "inexcusable behavior" and was handily re-elected.
That looks like a fancy way of saying "rape." But it's okay it's par for the course in politics here. It's a non-issue.
