Driving While Phoning should be a felony!!!!!!
(Preview)
Yes, driving while talking on a cell phone should be a felony with the first offense loss of license for 90 days. In the last week, I've come close to being in an accident 5 times, and every darn one of them were on a cell phone.

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT LAW: Should our state have one.
(Preview)
Many local communities are passing "Illegal Immigrant" laws, and some states are discussing them for the entire state. Basically, if a business owner hires "ILLEGAL" immigrants, or rent to "ILLEGAL" immigrants, they can be prosecuted. Hence the work "...

We should have an election vote whether we let our elected officials to vote or not on the casino issue.
(Preview)
Our elected officials are, in my opinion, abusing their offices by letting their personal feelings interfere with this casino vote issue. In my opinion, we elect them to push the issues that the voters prefer, not himself.
So what if Charlie Siler doesn't approve of the casino issue. He's not ther...

Hey "MERCSAKES", what is the governors plan??

Hello Ms. MERCSAKES, I haven't seen you post in awhile, since the governor won the election anyway, or I've just not seen the posts.
I have a question for you. You say that you work for him, and you posted quite regularly during the election. I don't expect you to answer for him, but, maybe you could giv...

Beshear has just learned how to shoot himself in the foot if he is contemplating cutting the KEES'. money ( i think that's how it's worded, correct me if I'm wrong please) to Kentucky students.
I voted for Beshear, and if this is how he is going to treat our young people, then boy did I make a mistake. I'l...

CASINO VOTE: we may get a chance to decide.
(Preview)
Looks like we just may get to decide ourselves if we want casino gambling in our state. And, we should be able to vote on it. Thats why we have elections.
Don Estep said in a recent article that this decision should be left to our elected officials, as that's why we elected them, to decide these things.

Beshear"s nightmare: the budget.
(Preview)
He's got a tough road ahead, but, I truly think he's wanting to solve the problem and enlist the help of everyone in all parties.
These first 180 days will be a big test for him.
There's a lot of waste in our state government, and I'm anxious to see how he gets rid of it.

Why didn't the Governor come to the Stocking Fund party?
(Preview)
He sent his Lt. Governor. Sorry, first strike for him for me.
This has went on since 1988, and the governor has came himself. So Beshear is the first not to come. Bad decision.
Ok you Beshear supporters, explain this one.

Yes or No, Put casino gambling on a ballot

We'll solve this once and for all, just like we did for the lottery. Put the casino gambling issue on a ballot, and vote yes or no. Neither one of these clowns has MY best interest at heart, nor anyone else's. This way, if it's on the ballot, you can vote for your favorite candidate, and this issue at the sa...

I'm fed up with the Republician way of things.

Flether is done, the size of his signs says so. (who is stan lee)

When the signs at Tri County Bank for governor are smaller than the signs for Stan Lee (whoever that is), you know Fletcher is in trouble, and the only reason they're up there is because he's a republican. Stan Lee for Railroad Commissioner!

How to lose an election, the Fletcher way?

1. Insult the integrity and intelligence of the entire state population by telling them you know what's best for them instead of letting them decide, such as the casino gambling issue. Let the people decide on the ballot.
2. Pardon your staff of their alleged crimes even before they got to trial for...

According to the paper today, in the speech from Stan Lee at the chambe of commerce luncheon, it appears he and Fletcher and the party are anti-union. Is that correct.
And Bruce Carpenter is anti-union too.

Interesting week this past week, with Senator David Williams obviously feeling it's better to jump off of a sinking ship before the ship takes him down with it. Maybe David is positioning himself for a run at the Governor's office, but the only part of the state he would have any backing is in this area o...

If Bashear wins, he'll have a lot to prove.

If Bashear wins, he'll have to put up or shut up the first 2 years. If not, he'll show he wasn't elected, only chosen as the lesser of two evils. One good thing, he'll be on the hot seat as to the normal political hiring and firing, and any republicans that were hired under the merit system by Fletcher, it...

We had the same thing when they voted in the lotter years ago. The terrible aspects of the lottery that the "no" side kept speaking of never came about. I say, put it on the ballot. That'll show if WE want it or not.
