Sunday Droopy Sunday

Whew! I'm back from the lake and caught a total of 1 fish. As fans of dubya would say, Yeehaw! With chores and some of the assorted jobs around here done I can finally get online. If you wanted cutting edge news you'd be at Huffington Post, Raw Story, and the big orange satan, etc. anyway. Hopefully everyone's having a great Sunday. On a completely unrelated note I was reading the dead tree edition of The Lexington Herald this AM and came across another of their and Ryan Alessi's scramble to pin something/Anything on Democratic candidate for Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear. They had another today on the front page with the damning title, "Report reveals conflict of interest, Beshear failed to disclose key facts to state official". Of course when you read the article it seems the worst thing Beshear had done was, to use Alyssi's own words, "The investigative report -- released at noon yesterday after being locked away for 12 years -- said Beshear was at least generally aware of a potential conflict of interest". Got that! "generally aware of a potential". I don't think their fishing expedition is bearing fruit, and I don't think this will hurt Beshear against indicted Republican Governor Ernie Fletcher. I'm not sue what Alessi's angle in this is. Maybe he sees a chance for some "journamalistic" fame in his scramble for crimes against Beshear. If this is all he's got he should just let it go. Bluegrass Reports has a great rundown on this. They say that no other Kentucky newspaper is trying to build this story into something the way the Lexington paper is. Curious. You really should read BR's take on it. You know maybe the Herald Leader could put Alessi onto that Obama flag pin story(snark).
