GOP LOWLIFE GOVERNOR OF KENTUCKY, ERNIE FLETCHER, INDICTED TODAY BY GRAND JURY ON 3 COUNTS, 14 MORE COUNTS STILL SEALED!

Last summer, nearly a year ago, DWT predicted that Kentucky's crooked governor, Ernie Fletcher would be indicted. It took longer than it should have but finally, today, a Kentucky Grand Jury indicted Fletcher. "The special grand jury that’s been investigating state government hiring practices indicted Gov. Ernie Fletcher on three misdemeanors for conspiracy, official misconduct and political discrimination. The jury lso indicted former Transportation Cabinet official Sam Beverage for perjury, which is a felony. And the jury also submitted to Franklin Circuit Judge William Graham 14 more indictments that are under seal. Those indictments cover crimes that may have occurred before Aug. 29, 2005, when Fletcher pardoned all administration officials except himself."

A right-wing nut case and egregiously corrupt slime bag, it looks like Fletcher may soon be sharing an exercise yard with dozens of fellow Republicans who have betrayed the public trust.


UPDATE: BYE-BYE UNCLE ERNIE?

Hard to say when, or even if, Ernie Fletcher will take up residence in a federal prison with other Republican crooks who have been caught ignoring laws. But at the moment only 40% of Kentucky voters think he should stay in office between now and when his trial begins. Time to resign and face the music, Fletcher.
