Oh Snap Monday! Time To Oust Larry Clark
June 7th, 2010 · No Comments
Watching Larry Clark wet himself in fear of Jody Richards running against him is quite nice. Even the Governor’s Office is working against Larry, who is not only a backstabber but someone who willfully attempted to kill Kentucky’s bourbon industry because he wanted to exact revenge on another legislator. Oh, and Larry? Jody is about [...]

TGIF! Denise Will Steal Your Thunder & Take Credit

Why would a “journalist” living in a rent-free apartment owned by a candidate – in exchange for favors – be calling political campaigns in an attempt to get them to trash talk me? Is it because they want me to not only reveal that they are unethical but that they’re violating several laws regulated [...]

July 21st, 2009 · 6 Comments
Rumor has it that lots of folks out in the state are contacting former House Speaker Jody Richards to encourage him to run for Secretary of State.

Thoughts Before Next Week’s Wasted Money
June 8th, 2009 · No Comments
With the special legislative session just one week away, some thoughts.

Frankfort’s Special Legislative Session Goodies
June 1st, 2009 · No Comments
What are the odds that Senate President David Williams will pull a Jody Richards and adjourn on the first day of the special session?
The Governor’s office is telling everyone and their mother that they plan to put slots on the call “later in the session.” That’s right. “Later in the session.”
It’s a special [...]
