Friday Evening Dept of Wasteful David Williams

March 5th, 2010 · 6 Comments

In case you missed it, David Williams is forcing the Kentucky State Police to spend untold hundreds of thousands of dollars to guard his butt outside the Commonwealth of Kentucky.  Meanwhile, he’s got his own bloated staff and hypocritically call for cuts everywhere but his budget. [Page One]
The University of Louisville is admittedly in […]

Bad Behavior Rumors/Dear Larry Clark

March 5th, 2010 · 6 Comments

You shouldn’t throw bottles of cleaning product at your flipping staffers if you expect them to continue working for you.
You must be in melt-down mode now that you’re no friend of the Governor’s Office (something about them “not negotiating with terrorists”)…
The rest of House Leadership is backing quickly away from you…
And organized labor is having […]

Thought It Was About Workers, Not Politics?

March 3rd, 2010 · 9 Comments

Lt. Dan and his folks (you know who you are) repeatedly told me that yesterday’s protest of Jim Bunning wasn’t about getting a leg-up on Jack Conway. One supporter/former staffer/whatever went so far as to complain about Jack Conway not being present or sending a letter to be read.
There was this in the Herald-Leader:
“Mongiardo, […]

TGIF! WATBs Work For Big Newspapers, Too!

February 26th, 2010 · 7 Comments

I’m wondering… what the heck is up in the journo world in Kentucky? Why is Joe Arnold the only political reporter to, well, report that Rand Paul’s campaign admits it is lying and taking Trey Grayson’s remarks out of context (illegally, I might add)? Somebody needs to get off their butt and […]

Teamsters Actively Working Against Larry Clark

February 22nd, 2010 · No Comments

In early September 2009, the Teamsters Local 89 told State Rep. Larry Clark (D-46) to take a hike. They sent him a letter calling him a liar and telling him in no uncertain terms to suck it.
Wasn’t clear at that time that the Teamsters would endorse Clark’s Republican opponent, Brian Simpson, but everybody expected […]

A Little Snow Throws Everything Outta Whack

February 16th, 2010 · 3 Comments

Dear Lt. Dan: Keep talking trash and I’ll start revealing the hundreds upon hundreds of emails your ex-girlfriend and I exchanged until January. We’ll talk about how you cheated on her with your current wife, for starters. Your staffers want to threaten me again? I’ll publish it all. What you […]

Everybody is pissed - especially state workers - at state workers. And they’re rallying. [Debby Yetter]
Randy Rand Paul’s singer lady is a truther. Nice. [Barefoot & Progressive]
Is Jack Conway taking a page out of Daniel Mongiardo’s playbook by trying to play on both sides of the fence? In short? […]

Oh Snap Monday! Special Session & No Gambling?

November 16th, 2009 · 3 Comments

Can you believe the Courier-Journal allowed Joe Gerth to publish my name? Woah. Thanks for that, Joe. As for Mike Bryant - he’s being totally dishonest when he says he wasn’t trying to hide his identity. He’d changed his domain name registration in an attempt to do just that - and […]
