He took time out of the Magoffin County High School ribbon cutting (a public, taxpayer-funded event) to trash reality:

When will these people stop lying and admit most folks and the EPA don’t hate coal? They hate mountaintop removal.

Oh Snap Monday! Fancy Farm Was A Sleeper

August 9th, 2010 · No Comments

Did you watch the Fancy Farm coverage over the weekend? Papaw Steve Beshear was pretty good, aside from fibbing about balancing the budget and pretending he was responsible for private businesses having a bit of success.

Daniel Mongiardo, Whiny Ass Titty Baby with a case of extreme gay panic, is STILL whining about Jack Conway beating his ignorant ass in May. Still. I used to think the guy had a bit of a political future left. Now I think he was dropped on his head as a child. [...]

Hal Rogers Calls For Clean Government

July 6th, 2010 · 1 Comment
