Astounding

I don't see any real hard evidence yet that Governor Martinez and her hapless Public Education Head Skandera arranged the hiring of the APS school Superintendent.  But I am suspicious that they had their way there only because they are now blaming Bill Richardson for a lawsuit filed against them by the whistle blower at APS that was threatened by the Superintendent.  Remember the Super's email to  Skandera?  The sophomoric quote from them said, "These are false and unsubstantiated claims being peddled by a disgruntled APS employee who served under Bill Richardson and clearly has an ax to grind.” 

This juvenile rhetoric is the signature response to any thing that might harm the Governor's carefully constructed facade.  It is getting pretty nauseating.

And of course, the Albuquerque Journal has totally buried former GOP Congresswoman Heather Wilson's complicity in illegal lobbying for Lockheed Martin's Sandia Labs Management Contract.  It will cost the taxpayers $4.5 million.  If that had been a democrat  there would have been photos and condemning quotes on the front page for weeks.  It just shows how you can not trust the coverage of political news by the Journal Editor Kent Walz.  He is the GOP mascot for New Mexico.

Jim: I am still having a hard time trying to figure out just exactly the Journal's personal connection, if any, to the Suzana Martinez and her political machine other than it is right wing and just promotes any and all Republicans and the Republican Agenda. Is it Jay McClusky or the Director of the Republican Party??? Any info you know??? The Journal's connection with Berry is very well known at City Hall. Berry is in constant, weekly contact with Ken Waltz by phone asking for opinions and guidance on what he should do. Does Susana and Jay do the same with Ken Waltz?????

The connection is in 8/27 edition of the urinal . The editorial says it all !!! How did we ever get along without this guy . Enquiring minds want to know Ken! Remember, according to Ken the buy out boogie man is waiting for the school board to fire Valentino. So we should all crawl back to the corner and let good ol Val serve out his tenure. At this point who cares about buy out as long as the urinal keeps Susie and Hanna out of the limelight. You go Ken keep us scared of the buy out boogie man because in the end we pay him anyway.

Jim: I'm pretty sure the Journal broke the Heather Wilson lobbying story in June 2013.

The Journal did break this story, but the feeble followup is incredible. Now, once again after a one day story it will die. If this were a democrat it would be a three month story.
