Oregon Gov (D) quits

After this week, I'm getting the distinct impression that love and politics don't mix all that well.

Right under the headline:

"In honor of Valentine’s Day, Oregon’s governor let’s his scandal-prone fiancé ruin his political career. "

Emphasis mine. Your moral and intellectual superiors?

What about Obama and himself?

"The Oregonian reported that Hayes “was trained by former Vice President Al Gore to lecture on climate change,” but there are no details about what, exactly, that means."

Having listened to others with similar "training", I've often wondered the same thing.

Basically, he's a fool for love. He's not the first and he won't be the last. But if he had thought with the head above his shoulders, and either kept her at arms length on official matters or convinced her to stop bidding on state contracts, he could have kept his job. Also, doing a background check on her way back when would have been a smart move, too.

Ahhh yes. As they say, it was written in a song.

Heh. I seized upon that same quote. I can translate: "She's a trained bullshit artist."

She had some good ideas on changing the climate. It should only rain or snow between 1AM and 5AM.. Clear skies in the Morning & cloud cover in the PM...

Screw the scary predictions... it is time to deliver.

The term "circus freak" used elsewhere this week, comes to mind.

The dear Guv'nor was smitten by the same affliction that often strikes older men when they meet an attractive younger woman, we used to call it,"fu**struck".

Which describes perfectly that condition.

There is more to the story than meets the eye.
The woman that took down the governor has a colorful history. Went to so called school where they have no grades, generating mostly socialist/fascist cadres for spreading the manure of free stuff.

Have a read.

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
