Teresa Isaac’s Silence is Deafening & Telling

May 27th, 2009 · 5 Comments

Teresa Isaac still hasn’t directly addressed the serious concerns about her involvement with the Fayette County Detention Center and Blue Grass Airport scandals.

Did Anyone Else Watch Kentucky Tonight?

May 26th, 2009 · 3 Comments

Were we the only viewers last week? Anyway, our pal Brad Cummings, a sympathizer of the known homosexuals and bad people, was on the KET machine along with Sannie Overly, KDP Chair Charlie Moore and Jim Weise. We’ll never understand why the Kentucky Democratic Party continues to put boring, un-exciting, non-confrontational people on television who [...]

Oh Snap Monday! Bunning’s “Still Running”

May 26th, 2009 · 3 Comments

Who needs increased revenue and decreased spending? Not Kentucky! Get ready for another wasted special legislative session that will cost Kentucky more than $60,000 per day in legislative salaries alone. What’s funny, really, is that Steve Beshear’s staff tell legislators that casino gambling isn’t definitely on the table – that a special session will only [...]
