Aww, the Faux Family Foundation closet cases have momentarily stopped secretly essing you-know-what to complain about gambling again: They’re all upset that “the media” won’t show video of instant racing machines. But, uh, what planet are they living on? (I know, I know– they’re living on the down low and are busy hiding from their [...]

Eastern Kentucky’s NOT Entirely Filled With Bigots
September 22nd, 2011 · 2 Comments
There’s a debate in Louisville between the candidates running for auditor.

Papaw Releases Yet Another Fancy Attack Ad
September 21st, 2011 · 1 Comment
Sorry, Mamaw Jane, but if Steve Beshear was really up 27 points on David Williams, you guys wouldn’t be releasing this attack ad: Which seems to ignore that Steve Beshear has been a politician for far longer. A little hypocrisy goes a long way, I guess. And why are they continuing to hit Williams on [...]

Beshear’s Professed Transparency Is Non-Existent

No one in their right mind thinks Governor Steve Beshear’s schedule is honest. This week? He says he has no public events scheduled. Unfortunately, public events – at which he will be in attendance – that have been scheduled for weeks/months in advance keep popping up. Like this one from a Greater Owensboro Chamber of [...]

WHAT Does Steve Beshear Have To Be Afraid Of?
September 20th, 2011 · 1 Comment
The Executive Branch Ethics Commission is being super-quiet about the investigation(s) it’s been discussing. [Ronnie Ellis] It’s a shame Steve Beshear is refusing to do interviews so the state’s newspapers (plural) can merely profile him. What on earth is so horrible that the man can’t allow himself to be questioned? Jesus H. No wonder his [...]
