Occasionally, Frankfort does something in a bipartisan manner. Here’s hoping their bipartisanship on the prescription drug nightmare in Kentucky is genuine. [H-L] Health departments across Kentucky are facing cuts amid growing demand. Legislators just kind of roll their eyes at the situation. [Debby Yetter] The long-term unemployment situation in America just got a lot worse. [...]

It’s A Really Big Day For Flashbacks In Kentucky
January 31st, 2012 · 4 Comments
Bob Gunnell, who loves to tell people he “left” Peritus because they didn’t support Steve Beshear (they’re “close friends,” you know) enough, is focused on keeping a select few super-wealthy people in Louisville’s Mockingbird Valley from having to see any poor people using sidewalks. And he’s focused on trash talking the folks who support making [...]

The Legislative Ethics Commission wants to play pat-a-cake with us over Keith Hall. But John Schaaf better bring his A Game. You wondering how corrupt state government is? Here it is, out in the open, disgusting as ever. It may not happen today. It may not happen next week. But just like with Gilles Meloche, [...]

January 24th, 2012 · No Comments
This week Congressman Geoff Davis is upset over health care reform: During debate over the new health care law, concerns were raised about a wide variety of provisions in the bill, but few provisions raised quite as many eyebrows as the Community Living Assistance Services and Supports (CLASS) program.

Geoff Davis Spins For Pipeline Instead Of Kentucky
January 18th, 2012 · 5 Comments
Congressman Geoff Davis is shilling for the Keystone XL Pipeline and it’s a hot mess: At a time when more than 13 million Americans are unemployed, we should be doing everything it can to create a stable atmosphere for our economy and encourage job creation. Too often, the message from Washington speaks of job creation, [...]

They Know He Was Against It Until Convenient
January 9th, 2012 · 1 Comment
At least one mainstream media outlet is remembering that Steve Beshear has only recently – as in, the past two weeks – been interested in tax reform. They’re even remembering that David Williams called for a tax reform commission more than a year ago. [WFPL] Kentuckians already know there’s going to be a wild Republican [...]

This week Geoff Davis says the Supreme Court should overturn health care reform legislation: Since the new health care law was enacted in March 2010, debate has swirled about the constitutionality of one provision in particular: the individual mandate.

Alecia Is Probably About To Get Trey Graysoned
January 4th, 2012 · No Comments
We’ve heard for at least three weeks from dozens (maybe more) of people that Alecia Webb-Edgington begins all of her calls and emails with, “Congressman Davis said I should call you.” Literally everybody she communicates with. Even Democrats. We thought it was no big deal but it’s becoming more and more obvious that the woman [...]
