It’s Thursday & the Day After the Special Session
June 25th, 2009 · No Comments
Apparently it’s a big deal to merely balance the state’s budget for a year while ignoring the underlying problems that will keep the state’s budget jacked for years to come. Governor Steve Beshear is terrified to approach comprehensive tax reform. [KY Post]

David Williams Has Absolutely No Filter
June 22nd, 2009 · 7 Comments
Really, what is it with David Williams’ lack of a filter? He’s apparently does this shiz just to come off as crazy. Or he really has no concept of what’s right and wrong.
Transferring $7 million in funds from the already-dying state employee health insurance trust fund to RACE TRACKS, no questions asked? […]

David Williams didn’t stick to his word (is anyone surprised?). He didn’t adjourn today.

Who Really Is In Charge in Frankfort?
June 18th, 2009 · 6 Comments
For weeks and weeks Larry Clark has said that he’s the man in charge in Frankfort.
But if David Williams adjourns tomorrow or the Senate keeps gambling legislation from passing, it’ll be clear that Williams is the man in charge.
So which is it? Is it Larry? Is it David?
If/when this fails, will the Governor’s […]
