That makes him perfectly qualified for Kline. His criminal record is a plus!

Change the laws, people…

Oh my goodness…

Convinces me I was correct all along.

Now we are talking about the release of confidential information.

They were email address Ben!

Social security numbers are already protected information so your little DMV scenario is void.

Confidential information is just that, confidential and is protected.

It is amazing the leap of logic people take. We have gone from email address to confidential information…Social security numbers…etc…

Give me a break.

Kline checked on the legality of it. If you don’t like the law then change it. We already know you don’t like Kline, so you can stop trying to twist every situation that comes up to bash him.

We still have these little problems of:

1) Nepotism: Kline hired his nephew for a job that required driving; only problem was that nephew did NOT have a valid license.

2) Inquisitorial subpeonas to rummage through private health records due to the AG’s opposition to abortion.

3) Tiller investigations for political payback.

4) Deputy AG unqualified for his job, but an old abortion foe friend.

I’m sure you will find a way to defend this indefensible crap. Please don’t disappoint me. I wish that I could have those blinders you seem to have. Where did you get them?

Did you notice how Sebelius turned a ten point lead a few weeks ago over Barnett into a twenty point lead?

Did you see how Bush’s dead cat bounce after the 9-11 speech quickly fell back to 40 percent approval after just a few days?

You had it all–the White House, the Senate, the House, the Supreme Court–and you gave us historic high debt, a widening gap between rich and poor, a middle class losing earning power, an unnecessary and costly war in Iraq which we seem to be losing, and more and more outsourcing of jobs.

If you had any shame, you’d be begging for forgiveness. If you had any sanity, you’d demand an end to the war and the deficit spending. If you had any sense, you’d be voting Democratic.

25-4169aChapter 25.–ELECTIONSArticle 41.–ELECTION CAMPAIGN FINANCE; GENERAL25-4169a. Use of public funds, vehicles, machinery, equipment and supplies and time of certain officers and employees to influence nomination or election of candidate prohibited; exceptions; misdemeanor. (a) No officer or employee of the state of Kansas, any county, any unified school district having 35,000 or more pupils regularly enrolled, any city of the first class or the board of public utilities of the city of Kansas City, Kansas, shall use or authorize the use of public funds or public vehicles, machinery, equipment or supplies of any such governmental agency or the time of any officer or employee of any such governmental agency, for which the officer or employee is compensated by such governmental agency, to expressly advocate the nomination, election or defeat of a clearly identified candidate to state office or local office. The provisions of this section prohibiting the use of time of any officer or employee for such purposes shall not apply to an incumbent officer campaigning for nomination or reelection to a succeeding term to such office or to members of the personal staff of any elected officer.

Tell me, if I or a member of my staff, as an elected official, can spend a portion of “government” time on politics, am I allowed to breath the “government” air, heated or air conditioned by the taxpayers? to sit in a “government chair”? to use a “government phone” or to use a government computer?This boob from out of state does not understand the law.—-Ask Morrison, point blank: have you ever discussed your personal election matters, ordered yardsigns, organized volunteers, over a “government phone” ???Come on, this is a bunch of bologne!

READ IT AND WEEP:

The provisions of this section prohibiting the use of time of any officer or employee for such purposes shall not apply to an incumbent officer campaigning for nomination or reelection to a succeeding term to such office or to members of the personal staff of any elected officer

In other words, if Morrison used his office for his Johnson County political race, that would be ok.Chances are very high that Morrison has used his office to work on the AG race, in that case, Morrison BROKE THE LAW!!

Well done.

A Theory:One of the things that conservatives like about Kline is, they can point to him and say, “He’s a bigger jerk than I am”.

If Kline would leave the abortion clinics and the teenage girls alone….

I don’t want him representing me in any way shape or form!!

When you are a public figure, the press is entitled to report on what you do, say, etc. If that is unfair treatment, what would you suggest as an alternative. Don’t we let the public figure critique the press findings? That happens all the time.

Not always, but sometimes – “where there is smoke, there is fire” – Kline supplies plenty of smoke, IMHO – which may have something to do with the press being so interested in him.

I would wonder if Outlander really hasn’t made up his mind who he is going to vote for. It may be that the pervasive appearance of impropriety is oaky with him if you have the right politics and religious leanings.

In fairness, I don’t know anything about our friend outlander’s behavior, but I have wondered just how disclosing he has been here today.

I wonder if anyone from that email listing that was contacted by the campaign has complained?

If they did, then wouldn’t that bring on an investigation into the ethics question.

These guys don’t sound like bombing throwing anarchists to me. I think it is okay to be concerned about counsumers — that doesn’t sound like a crime or treasonous behavior to me…—–
It is human nature, Steven to feel sympathy for someone being picked on unfairly. And you know, because I have mentioned it before, that it is just not this instance, but the cumulation of 5 negative Kline lead ins from the Eagle in about a week. When I see that kind of obsession, I wonder why.

The fact that organizations like “Public Citizen” are sticking their nose in our state’s business is also a plus for Kline.

So given this mantle, this responsibility to the public, it galls me when politician’criminals play fast and loose with citizens private information.

So given this mantle, this responsiblity to the public, it galls me when journalists play even a little fast and loose with the truth. Even in a blog environment.——-
