Lembke Supports Martin Over Spence

Surprise , surprise! One Tenther supports another for governor. Hey Jim, do you remember what Martin did during the Blunt administration?

Lembke Supports Martin Over Spence By .Sean at Fired Up on November 30, 2011 - 1:54pm

Sen. Jim Lembke wrote the following to the Draft Ed Martin for Governor Facebook group this afternoon: "We need a candidate for governor that embraces the constiution, knows the proper role of government and is not afraid to stand firm against the tyranny of the federal government. We need a leader at the top of our ticket that will take the fight to Nixon. This race is an uphill climb and will take a candidate that is seasoned, and has been around the block. I believe the right man for the job is ED MARTIN."

Governor Blunt Ordered the Code Red

In the movie, A Few Good Men, Jack Nicholson's character would not acknowledge that he ordered the unauthorized disciplinary procedure which lead to the death of a young marine. I don't know how others feel when watching the movie but it doesn't bother me all that much. The fact is military leaders me decisions all the time that lead to injuries and deaths of their troops. It's a tough part of the job. The problem with Colonel Jacob was that he was going to let two enlisted men stand before a court martial for something that was his responsibility. This conduct is truly unbecoming for a United States Military Officer.
But that's a movie. What we had at Governor Blunt's office was reality. He was responsible for the e-mail problems at his office. They had numerous problems retaining the state's business records and also attempted to destroy those records. For that mess, I can't get too worked up, but I can not excuse the firing of the attorney who tried to stop it and the attempt to ruin his reputation with slander.
It's a shame Gov. Blunt doesn't think we can handle the truth!
