Len Peters says it was solely his decision (because of performance - PROVE IT!) to fire Ron Mills from the Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet as mine permits director. Multiple sources in Governor Steve Beshear’s office still insist otherwise when I ask. They all say his firing occurred because Alliance Resource Partners wanted him fired. And they also say that the Gas Station Governor asked for him to be fired. Yet another reason Beshear is a one-term governor. Yet another reason nearly all of his staff have jumped ship. [Tom Loftus]
Ah, whattya know. Turns out it WAS Greg Fischer’s campaign that some how transferred an anonymous email address I maintain to Kimberly Greenwell. And to Daniel Mongiardo’s campaign. Yes, I’m pointing fingers, and I don’t like being lied to. [Pointing Fingers]
In other news, Crit Luallen or Jane Beshear need to move to Louisville ASAP so they can run for mayor in 2010. [Pipe Dream]
Mitch McConnell is suddenly a military expert. Guess he has forgotten that he is a first-rate chickenhawk and should probably always avoid anything having to do with the military. Primarily because of his own scandalous past involving the Floyd Family. [Politico]
The ACLU will be targeting anti-choice Ben Chandler this Friday. Visit his office to let him know how you feel. [Barefoot & Progressive]
Lt. Dan’s worst nightmare: the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies is hosting a panel on mountaintop removal today at 5:00 P.M. (too bad we all live in Kentucky) The panel, moderated by Roger Cohn, editor-in-chief of Yale Environment 360, will examine how mountaintop removal has destroyed or severely damaged more than a million acres of forest and buried 2,000 miles of streams in Appalachia.

Daniel Mongiardo answers KEY issue questions:
How will you deal with Healthcare?
We will cure all illnesses with a Coal Xtract taken from the tops of mountains in Eastern KY
How about Energy Issues. Again. COAL is the answer here. When breathing becomes an issue in the future..(and it will) don’t worry I have invested in and we have already developed a new mask to wear based upon COAL filaments found in the mountaintops of EKY .
How about dealing with terrorists?
We have developed a very complex plan that requires poisoning our environment so they… the BAD GUYS… wont come here anymore and pick on us.
How about world hunger Dr Dan?
Well in my research I have found that many parts of COAL are edible. Its a little hard on the teeth, but heck…teeth are not a big deal in EKY.
One last thing Dr Danny… What are you going to name your new Daughter?
Why Bituminous BlackLung Mongiardo of course …
Uh …..Thank you Francis Danny Mongiardo. Now back to you Steve

I will not be voting for Beshear next time. Gatewood has my vote. Beshear is a sell out. Anyone who fires an employee for following the law, does not deserve to be reelected.
