Here's a quote from the Seattle Times: (Full article can be found here: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/politics/2004043827_session30m.html )
"At one point early in the day, Eyman and Sen. Adam Kline, D-Seattle, got into a shouting match outside the Senate chamber in front of a horde of reporters and photographers.
Holding up a 3-inch-thick copy of the state's operating budget, Kline asked Eyman to point out one service he would eliminate.
"And you call me a media whore," Eyman said.
"You're quite the expert, Tim," Kline retorted. "There are services that you must've thought that we spent too much money on, because you want to cut the taxes that pay for them."
Eyman tried to duck out of the confrontation, but Kline got in his face. "Answer the question, Tim: Where is the fat in the budget?" Kline continued. "You won't answer the question, and the reason you won't is you're chicken. You're chicken. You are a coward."
