Jack Lied: Mainstream Proves He’s Been Bought

October 7th, 2011 · 7 Comments

The Republican Party of Kentucky has forgotten that it planned to hit Jack Conway every day over his involvement in his brother’s drug scandal. Good to know they give up almost as easily as the KDRP. [RPK Failure]

From the No Shit, Sherlock files: Eric Cantor says the Occupy Wall Street “mobs” are “pitting Americans against Americans.” They’re pitting common sense folks against people like Eric Cantor. [HuffPo]

We bet Kathy Stein is happy Alan will have an actual social life and free time now that he’s retired from sports CEOing. [H-L]

Can’t be having whistleblowers, right? Gotta panic and stifle free speech even more. [NY Times]

Comment on Kentucky might not suck tonight at 8:00 P.M. Eastern on KET. Scheduled guests: Ryan Alessi, Joe Arnold, Linda Blackford. [KET]

When Jack Conway tells you he isn’t bought and paid for? Here’s proof that he is – literally – bought and paid for by corporations like Office Depot, Pfizer, Genentech, American Natural Gas Alliance, Anheuser Busch and ServiceMaster. They’re literally funding his re-election bid. [C-J/AKN]

Quick, buy up all kinds of canned goods and terlit paper! The world banking system is gonna collapse in a few weeks. [Wonkette]

The September jobless rate remained at 9.1% despite the country adding 103,000 new jobs, which were probably all seasonal. [HuffPo]

Kentucky got a federal $2.5 million grant to buy and demolish 26 homes in Pike County. That’s nearly $100K per home. Somebody’s making out like a bandit. [WKYT]

Mining is completely safe. But somebody dies every five seconds in Eastern Kentucky. [H-L]

If you missed it on The ‘Ville Voice this morning, River Fields in Louisville has turned into a group of Whiny Ass Titty Babies because Metro Council has decided to hold them accountable for their outlandish bullshit and obstruction. They’re the reason Louisville’s bridges are a disaster. [WHAS11]

You a gigantic space nerd, maybe? The International Space Station could be visible during the early Saturday morning hours. [WLEX18]

    Did u copy and paste this whole list? Do u people do any real reporting whatsoever? Could u do me a favor, and make sure that labor unions are suppressed, and the student voice? Wait! U do a great job of doing that anyways. Thanks for keeping that information away from us. Hey, welcome to the club Rubert Murdoch… except you’re irrelevant. Just a typical corporate bitch! U just as bad as David Williams… good thing u print his words! Stupid motha fuckers.

    Pro-tip: Threatening my staff via email because they won’t forward your stoned rants that the Cardinal won’t even publish is hardly a good way to get me to publish something.

    The folks at the Cardinal tell me they didn’t bother publishing your rant because you had a similar freak out on them. Imagine that.

    Then leaving ridiculous comments about me being corporate and hating labor? HAHA. Hahahaha. Riiiight. Because I’m anti-labor and loooooove gigantic corporations. Even the teabaggers know better than that.

    Funny how some of these lunatics love our websites when we publish items they like. And then hate hate hate when they don’t get their way. Always have to come up with some conspiracy about whatever way they’ve recently been wronged by the man.

    HAHAHA. Check this email the dude just sent:

    The 5 alarm drama queen telling me I’m queening out… PUH-LEEZ… U queened out on the 2nd email I sent to Kay… did she show u the first one? Of course not… she suppressed that story… 4 a stupid reason. most pieces of info I’ve given u, you’ve ignored… I can take a “no”… I can’t take a “no” that’s attached to a stupid reason… or attached to some stuck-up elitest snobbery, plus there’s nothing about labor unions on your page… you’ve ignored working people for quite some time… probably don’t want your place to unionize, eh? Whatever… ur the reason the Democrats don’t organize into one coherent party… u help the T Party by not giving the 99% coverage… u a part of the problem… I don’t care about your feelings… u need to change who u r as a person, fundamentally. Having a head with no heart is having no head.

    Thanks for the Iraq War… and U NEED TO CHECK YOSELF, bitch. Again, DO NOT publish any of my stuff, or there will be consequences, okay bitch?

    Maybe making threats are the reason the Cardinal and this website won’t bother?

    We are clearly the man trying to suppress the story of Wall Street protests and organized labor gatherings. We clearly have never written about either.

    Hahaha. Wow.

    A reminder: this is the guy who lost to Royce Adams 82-18 last year.

    Wait, it gets better:

    u tattle tellin Uncle Tom house Negro cry baby. Go run to the wyte power structure which u defend so much. The only “threat” is one of a lawsuit, and it’s a conditional threat…

    Wow.

    “Comment on Kentucky might not suck tonight”

    - It kinda did.

    Jake, you do understand that you’re not dealing with a criminal, he’s a hero, he’s a “people’s champ.”

    Wow……….I guess the 18% were people who voted by default by voting the party ticket. If the Democratic party is looking to guys like this to energize the base, they are in more trouble than they realize.
