New Jersey Gov. Christie Whitman delivered her sixth annual budget
message yesterday to the state Legislature, and quoted Dorothy Parker (born in West End, N.J., in 1893). Gov. Whitman announced the $19.2 billion budget plan includes the first installment of $1 billion in tax rebates over five years. She quoted Parker, who once said the most beautiful words in the English language are “check enclosed.” Nice to know an elected official is a Parker fan; I wonder if she knows Dottie was born on the Jersey Shore.
