It's a dirty job but somebody has to do it!

It is my sincerest hope that Kentuckians who intend to make informed decisions at the polls this November are not relying on the mainstream media in this state to enlighten them on anything of substance with regard to the actual merit hiring probe that Beshear's campaign is using to smear Governor Fletcher.

If it weren't for the folks at Conservative Edge, none of us would find much real enlightenment with regard to the much trumpeted "merit hiring probe" that resulted in endictments to some in Governor Fletcher's administration. It appears now that the person who implemented the "pre-selection" process at the heart of the matter is the same person who lodged the complaint with the state Attorney General. Hmmm... Vast Leftwing Conspiracy? Shocking, isn't it?!

... "Last week, CE reported that Missy McCray had testified that Doug Doerting himself had implemented the "pre-selection" process in the Transportation Cabinet that formed the basis of his complaint to Attorney General Stumbo about Governor Fletcher violating the merit hiring system. McCray also testified that the "pre-selection" of job recipients had been happening under the Patton administration and Doerting knew about it, but never complained to anyone that it was illegal.

...

CE is at a loss to explain why the state's two largest newspapers and the AP have failed to report on this issue. The information is all in a public forum. Considering their interest in the story when it was damaging to Governor Fletcher, their lack of professional curiosity leads to at least one conclusion. The editors and policy makers at those three leading news organizations don't want the general public to know the full story before the gubernatorial election in November. We'll entertain any other plausible explanations." ...

Thanks for keeping your nose in the news that matters, Conservative Edge! You're keeping Kentucky media honest -- a dirty job but somebody has to do it -- and we love you for it!!

As the Blog Turns...

Gee. I have found myself fascinated by the soap opera unfolding in the comments section of this blog since last night. One little mention on a controversial Democrat's blog and it's High Noon on ConservaChick! (Yes, I'm laughing while I type this.) For those of you who have no idea what's happening in the ever-expanding comments section , join the club! Here's what I know about Mark Nickolas from bits and pieces I've read on his blog, and from a local news report: Nickolas likes to sneer at Republicans and call them snide little nicknames as he provides his "Unfiltered and Candid Look at Politics, Politicians and the Media in Kentucky;" he raised a ruckus within the Democrat party here in Kentucky by filing a suit against the chairman of the party , Jerry Lundergan; and he will be appearing on the same panel with yours truly on Thursday night. That's about it. You now have the benefit of my not-so-extensive knowledge on this subject. Nickolas poste...

Is conscription the prescription?

US Representative, Charlie Rangel (D-NY) is at it again. Rangel's prescription for fixing the ills we're feeling in Iraq is a draft . I have very mixed feelings about this. Conscription is conscription no matter what you choose to label it. Is that appropriate in a free country? On the flip side of this coin, I've often thought that compulsory national service would be a great idea for American kids right out of high school. It might have been a better start for me than learning to down beer at a Liberal Arts university! Two years in the service might give kids time to think about their future, learn higher levels of responsibility, and begin to take life more seriously. There are many countries who require some level of mandatory military service: Belarus, Chile, China, Croatia, Serbia, Russia, Iran, Lebanon, our neighbor Mexico, and our old buddy Germany, to name a few. Gee, now that I look at that partial list... aren't many of those countries Socialist or at battl...

Three Things No One Else Is Telling You

From: Downsizer Dispatch < downsizer-dispatch@downsizedc.org > Date: Fri, Oct 8, 2010 at 12:38 PM Subject: Three Things No One Else Is Telling You To: conservachick@gmail.com Quote of the Day: "Things in our country run in spite of the government, not by the aid of it." -- Will Rogers (1879-1935) American humorist Unelected federal bureaucrats are forcing New York City to spend $27 million to replace their street signs. Our bureaucratic overlords maintain that streets signs must contain both upper and lower case letters, instead of just capital letters! Do you feel grateful that you're being protected from upper case streets signs? This dictatorial mandate comes from the Federal Highway Administration, and applies to every community in America, not just New York City. But don't blame this outrage on the busy-body Democrats. This isn't an Obama directive. The rule was actually promulgated back in 2003 -- during the Bush Administrat...
