How appropriate is it for an employee of the Commonwealth of Kentucky’s Department of Criminal Justice Training to close a press release with “God bless!” sent out via the official state system? Innocent mistake with no harm meant, obviously, but I’m pretty sure people being paid with our tax dollars need to be a bit more cognizant of the fact that they work for the government and that their press releases may be rolling out to people who do not care for the baby jeebus or Buddha or whatever it is people could be worshipping. [Deep Thoughts]
Why is it Rand Paul get caught up in a hot, racist mess? Maybe because his dad has a history of being an angry white man who is afraid of the non-whites, gays, AIDS, and anything that isn’t filled with hatred and ignorance. [TNR Flashback]
Finance Secretary Jonathan Miller has a fancy pictorial tour of the final stages of Capitol Rotunda renovations. [Facebook]
Steve Nunn is gonna get his noggin looked at to see if maybe he is crazy for allegedly killing Amanda Ross. [Stephenie Steitzer]
Clearing up two things about Rand Paul’s lying satanic racist spokesman. [Barefoot & Progressive]
Still yet, David Adams, Rand’s campaign manager, has a history of Anti-Semitic and downright dangerous behavior. This stuff about Jonathan Miller should sicken everyone to the core. [More B&P]
Too pressed for time/lazy to write it’s own post, so be sure to watch Comment tonight at 8. Linda Blackford, Al Cross and Deborah Yetter (we heart her) will be the guests. Should be pretty interesting. Linda knows the drill on KLC, so her commentary will be enjoyable and Yetter knows everything about everything. [KET]
The Kentucky League of Cities may be canceling it’s fancy shindig tonight and donating some money to charity, but that’s just not enough to make this mess right. [H-L]
The gays never let us down when it comes to hilarious “bear” jokes. Not even when it comes to a U.S. Senate candidate and the comments are kinda mean. Sorry, Jack, it’s my fault. I’ve been asking for bear jokes all week. The gays finally delivered. [Pee Alert]

What’s up with the Jonathan Miller hate? I liked seeing the progress of the renovations, but with that said, you haven’t lived till you’ve secretly made your way to the very top of St. Rose Church in Springfield!!! (Scaffolding n0t included).

I’ll note, there are very few atheists in law enforcement – even if the God they worship goes by other names, such as Yahweh or Allah. God doesn’t necessarily equate to Christianity, after all.

Separation of Church and State exists for a reason.

So does “.. nor prohibiting the free exercise thereof,” which unlike “separation …” is actually in the Constitution.

Uh, a press release – from GOVERNMENT – sent out to the media is hardly an exercise of religious freedom.

Oh, I agree, but the question is, who approved it? I doubt any press release goes out without the knowledge of the Commissioner – but then, I’m told he’s absent quite a bit.

For the record: I think you should be allowed to pray to Jeebus or whatever at work, school, anywhere you want. But when it comes to my tax dollars, you are not welcome to promote your religious beliefs. Just as you’re not allowed to promote your lavish lifestyle (Sylvia Lovely) or your skanky girlfriends (Paul Patton).
