Oh Snap Monday! Fancy Farm’s This Week

July 27th, 2009 · 7 Comments

Why has the Kentucky Association of Counties spent $200,000 in two years for advertising during UK basketball games? WTF kind of waste is THAT? Every day we learn something new that makes us hope KACo is dissolved entirely. What a g.d. farce. That money really would be better spent on hookers and coke. And maybe [...]

July 7th, 2009 · No Comments

The Courier-Journal, which was criminal in its lack of coverage of Louisville Republican Party Chairman Brad Cummings’ recent press conference has done it again.

Don’t miss your chance to win copies of Bluegrass Treasures and Horse Farms! Enter today. Drawing is Friday afternoon. [Page One] Jerry Abramson, naturally, avoided reacting too extremely to Brad Cummings’ scathing indictment yesterday.
