And that, folks, is why good, hard-working, conservative Republicans have lost faith in their party.
You can't tell them apart anymore without a program.

A person would have to be completely ignorant not to see how corrupt these people are. It will not stop until the Justice Department comes in and conducts a sweeping top to bottom criminal investigation and sends these people to prison where they belong.

Regardless of the intentions of the people involved, it is so clearly obvious that everything that goes on appears tainted or subject to undue influence or control.

An issue I think we have is that all of eleven people (not really, but it is insignificant compared to the total number of voters) pay enough attention to politics at such a level that they read the blogs and/or take time to know who all of the players are and who is running things.

If the newspapers own't do it, somebody else needs to take this kind of information the public via forums other than BLOGs.

Perception isn't always reality, so I'm always careful not to assume people are up to no good; but, the information is important if people are going to make up their own minds. Especially when some of these deals are ridiculous or are nothing more than corporate welfare.

There was not one word of the agreement mentioned at that meeting, Paul. Ann Lathrop is very sneaky in how she conducts business at the CIB. I will once again demand that Lathrop disclose the list of clients for Crowe-Horath. If she does that, it will be determined she cannot continue to serve on the CIB because of multiple conflicts of interst she has.

I tried to watch the last two CIB meetings on-line but I couildn't get it to work very well. Did they discuss this plan at the CIB meeting, and if so which one? I saw McQuillen was at the Sep. CIB meeting, but the audio was so poor I couldn't hear what's going on.

Does the U.S. Attorney (the D.C. one) need to look at B&T?

They turn up everywhere in these public-private dealings.

Grisham needs to come to Indy. Hal Holbrook's outfit was a bunch of pikers, by comparison.
