Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for April 28, 1979
Transcript:
Rick: Governor, are you committed to anything beyond the public mood? For instance, you now support a balanced budget, but less than a year ago, you bitterly opposed Prop 13! Jerry Brown: That was then, now is now. Rick; Uh... excuse me, sir, but I'm from Washington. I don't now about California, but back east that would be a fatuous and cynical answer. I wonder if you could do better. Brown: East is east. West is West. Rick: Thank you.

No contradiction there; Prop 13 limits taxes, denying one of the tools to balance California’s budget.
