With Kline, better Johnson County than Sedgwick County

The crazy talk of ousted Attorney General Phill Kline taking over the job of the man who decisively defeated him, Johnson County District Attorney Paul Morrison, is looking more possible — though no less crazy — now that Kline has movedhis voter registration to the county. The county’s party faithful will choose a successor Monday to Morrison, who was elected as a Republican. There are several other seemingly more qualified candidates. It would take a lot of nerve for Kline to seek this job, given that he only drew 35 percent of the vote against Morrison last month in Johnson County, worse than the 41 percent he earned statewide. Then again, Kline has plenty of nerve and needs a job — and Johnson County has an abortion clinic, meaning his records fight could go local.

    If the people in Johnson county have any sense at all.. They will not elect that nutjob religious zealot.

    There is a reason that we voted him out of office for the state..

    Oh that felt so good to say :)

    All the media showboating and grandstanding aside, is this guy a competent lawyer? Is he DA material?

    gster: No and no.

    What is being considered here is an appointment for Kline to serve out the rest of Morrison’s term. So, he won’t be elected this time and if appointed he won’t be elected next time. Which I believe is Rhonda’s point.

    Paraphrase of Abe Lincoln. SOB, I believe that this one applies to you, today.

    Steven Davis,

    If you don’t like what I say, just turn the channel. That’s your right and choice. Just like watching TV.

    Please don’t try to squelch my civil right of free speech. Think of it!

    A compliment? Ever hear of sexual harrassment? Your juvenile posts offer a window into the mind of a perv.

    Certainly, I will scroll past your trash. But, I do encourage you to keep posting such stuff, because it shows what kind of people you guys really are. While you retain your first amendent rights, your message discredits anything else you may say.

    Davis,You’re an extreme lib – proven by many of your previous posts.

    Nothing I say will have any merit to you. Being “discredited” (in your eyes) happened long ago when I said “Yes, I want the US to win the war in Iraq”

    Sexual harassment has three fundamental characteristics:

    1) It’s unwanted2) It’s repeated3) It’s of a sexual nature

    Think about that, Davis.

    1) She dang may want it. (whatever “it” is)

    2) Today is no-repeat Friday.

    3) I saw no sexual nature. What’s MILF stand for anyway? Steven? Can you explain?

    Golf seems to be well versed in the characterists of sexual harrassment.

    How very rude and uncalled for. Both fleets enema and SOB.

    Back to the point at hand. If they do elect Kline to be DA, you can BET MONEY that the right to life- religious right crowd runs the show in that county…and I’ll bet you’ll see a mass exodus of any of the remaining moderate republicans in that county.

    Saying she needed to comb her hair, her hair looks fine.

    Mass exodus= leaving the republican party, not moving out of the county.

    And SOB how do YOU know I’m not a MYLF? Don’t you know, liberals make better lovers lol?

    We don’t have all that shame baggage.

    How nice of the looney left to tell conservatives what’s best for them.

    Let’s see according to Holman, if the libs win, they get their way, and if conservatives win, the libs still get their way.

    I got news for you Rhonda, you don’t represent the views of Wichita and environs, and yet the Eagle crams you and many more like you down our throats every day. Just think of Phill as our revenge for you.

    What is wrong with you people? All this immaturity must mean you are men. Phil Kline is not a funny matter. I don’t have a problem using medical information if you have information that a crime has been committed. But he was just on a fishing trip. To believe that 3rd trimester abortions are just performed willy nilly shows how ignorant Kline is. They are very dangerous and are done only with trepitation by any doctor. Some of you men need to grow up!!
