Linda Daves is attacking Mike Easley's trip to Italy.

In a statement to the press, the chairwoman of the N.C. Republican Party says that the governor should not have spent $170,000 to go to Italy.

"Rising gas prices have caused many North Carolina families to cancel their vacations this summer," she said in the statement. "At a time when North Carolina families are struggling to make ends meet, they should not have to foot the bill for the Governor’s exploits abroad."

Daves says that Easley should either return the money or show the results of his trip.

Absolutely! This is an OUTRAGE!!! HE should RESIGN as 'governor' immediately, or REIMBURSE the taxpayers some or all of these unnecessary costs

PLUS, the minimum of 147 trips to their coastal HOMES on the STATE employee JET!!! His use of the JET does NOT conform to state requirements!

Get this C R O O K OUT of office N O W !!!
