Get Your Butt To The State Fair This Weekend
August 20th, 2010 · 16 Comments
What’s that sound? I hear this is unofficially being called Non-Merit Layoff Day in Frankfort. Can’t confirm any numbers (200 saving $5 million?), but quite a few non-merit employees were axed today.

Some Questions For War Expert Rand Paul
June 9th, 2010 · 12 Comments

Oh Snap Monday! The Political Games Are Rolling
May 3rd, 2010 · 13 Comments
Rand Paul admitted he doesn’t support the war in Iraq and he appears on stage with anti-gay folks Frank Simon and Jerry Stephenson. He’s using his dad’s talking points, despite saying he’s not like his father politically. His campaign is fueled by national donors and national interest. The Kentucky Right to Life says [...]

Thursday Afternoon of Gas Station Governing
November 19th, 2009 · 5 Comments
Dear Gas Station Governor: over-hyping a story about a garden will not take the focus of your corrupt firing practices. Nor will it take the focus off your ignorance of tax policy in both the Commonwealth and the United States of America. [Press Release]
