Jesus Christ. What is going on in Frankfort these days?
Look at this knob-slobbing article from the June 30 Kentucky Gazette:


You see that junk? “Speaker pro tem hasn’t missed a House vote” my ass. Jesus.
It would behoove these folks writing for TKG to do a little research before putting forth a crazy ass subhead like that. Say, for instance, if you Google around a bit? You find this June 9, 2010 story pointing out that:
On Larry “Let’s Kill The Bourbon Industry” Clark’s little website – run by none other than Kathy Groob – he claims he’s got a 100% voting record. I.E., he’s never, ever missed a vote in all of his 26 years in the State House.
-SNIP-
Reality, however, is much different. KentuckyVotes.org shows that Clark missed a whopping 30 votes between January 1, 2005 and January 1, 2010 alone.
Let’s take a look at an excerpt or two from the piece:
Call Larry Clark the Cal Ripken of the Kentucky House of Representatives, having never missed a vote since arriving in the General Assembly in 1984. He and Ripken, the famed Baltimore Orioles player who played in 2,632 consecutive Major League Baseball games, have something in common – a dogged determination to show up to do the job the public assumes you will do.
-SNIP-
“Being a member of organized labor gave me credibility with the business community to make sure we passed the bill,” Clark remarked. “That’s why I got involved in the unemployment task force, to take that plan back to solvency,” he concluded.
Before that, during the regular session of the legislature this year, the House and Senate couldn’t agree on a budget bill before the legislature had to adjourn April 15, forcing the governor to call the special session, at a cost of $63,000 per day, to complete the task. The budget that emerged amid compromises was lean, to say the least.
-SNIP-
Clark, who was unopposed in the primary but who has a Republican opponent in the fall, advocates more women running for office and wants those already in the House or Senate to rise to leaderships positions.
Guess I should have included a pee alert?
So let me get this straight. He’s never missed a vote… despite missing 30 in the past five years.
He’s single-handedly responsible for saving the budget… which he ended up having nothing to do with.
And he’s an advocate for women… despite letting anti-choice, anti-woman Kathy Groob run his race.
Here’s the best part:
Ask Clark what he wants to see before he ends his career and he’s quick with an answer: “The political climate today is pretty much ‘in your face’ politics. We need more civility in the process,” he declared.
More civility? HAHAHA. Mr. Larry “Fuck That Faggot – Fag!” Clark wants more civility?
Hahahahaha.
I’m going to puke.
Note: Larry had his aide send the article out to every Democrat in Kentucky. And Charlie Hoffman allegedly hates Larry. Very interesting.

You forgot about Clark killing the bourbon-tasting bill out of “revenge.” Too much garbage to scoop with one shovel.

Meanwhile, Joe Arnold repeats the misinformation about Clark not missing a vote.
And LCG is probably going to be on KET five or six times in a row to make up for the dung her newsletter’s pushing with Larry.

I do not get the Charlie Hoffman reference-what does this have to do with the story -I am sure there are several other legislators who dislike Larry Clark also -why single out one -tell us about the others.

Uh, maybe because he was part of the story?
