   He must be reading from the same talking points as the Republicans in the Senate. You would think after the debacle in the Coleman campaign the GOP would learn their lesson.

   Molnau is such a liability in the voting public’s mind it is too bad she was so pig-headed about taking top level party advice to gracefully go away. The average voting public doesn’t listen to or care the talking of Lewis, Strom, Krinkie, etc. They see her as a symbol of bad roads, bridges, and other transportation ill. if she had not acted as a bull in a china shop, maybe it would be different. That image hurts Pawlenty and GOP – and having to be fired in the voter’s mind will be remembered as tagged to GOP. DFL won this one ’cause we are stupid.

   *** “Ron Carey today issued the following statement regarding Lt. Governor Carol Molnau.

   “Today’s action against Lt. Governor Molnau again shows that Democrats in this state are more interested in destructive partisan games than in getting things done.” ***

   Is this the same guy that condemned the Override Six for engaging in nonpartisan politics?

   That said the Override Six owed allegiance to party, not district?

   And then said that he’d more-or-less destroy their careers, for not playing partisan games??!?

   We’re talkin’ the same “Ron Carey” here, “right”?

   This is why republiCons are seen by reasonable people as bein’ consistently inconsistent.

   I actually think this is a good move by the Govenor. First the DFL shoots themselves in the right foot with the larger then needed tax increase, then they attack Molnau. Since they have now shot both feet I wonder which body part will be blown off with their next tax increase – adding sales tax to clothing.

   I received this press release late yesterday afternoon.

   Don’t you mean “I WROTE this press release late yesterday afternoon”?

   Ron Carey is a hack.
   If he’d stop using the stupid political lingo I might take him more seriously.

   For example, instead of saying, “more interested in destructive partisan games than in getting things done” he SHOULD have said, “they’re dry humping us sideways because they’re in the majority, and it don’t feel so good”.

   Or, instead of saying, “relentless partisan attacks against an honorable public servant like Lt. Governor Molnau demonstrate that the Democrats’ slash and burn politics know no bounds” he could have said something like, “look, the A-holes that steal your money and think it’s no big deal are shitting all over this ugly woman simply because she hates communists, and it’s only going to get worse for people like us who think we should be able to keep our own fucking money!”

   Don’t you mean “MIKEY BRODKORB is a hack. If he’d stop using the stupid political lingo I might take him more seriously.”

   The Governor is a coward. He let the Senate do his dirty work on this topic.

   Does anybody besides me remember the huffing and puffing from the Governor’s office after the Sonia Pitt debacle? There was noise about looking into how this loser was (or apparently wasn’t) supervised.

   The Legislative Auditor issued a blistering, embarassing report, and T-Paw did nothing.

   It’s pathetic.

   As the British say: “Good riddance to bad rubbish!” Molnau was not only an incompetent administrator but actually destructive. Don’t let the door hit you on the ass on the way out!

    I really hate to be a troll here in GOP world. But does it serve a timeline to mention that the millions saved by putting some work on a certain bridge could have saved a few lives recently?

    I think the dollar value was somewhere around 15 million to shore up this very bridge. Does it not then hold Pawlenty and Molnau accountable?

    But then I forget, it was the bridges fault.
