TALLAHASSEE -- For more than two years now, Rep. Paige V. Kreegel has pursued a libel lawsuit against a political consultant who exposed problems from his past. He said his lawsuit was all about derailing dirty politics.

But as he gears up to run for re-election, Kreegel not only has done negative campaigning of his own, he apparently has done it on state time, with the help of his chief aide, using state computers.

Florida election law forbids state employees from using a state office during working hours to further a political campaign.

There's more: When a citizen asked Kreegel's office to produce e-mails that related to the negative campaigning, the chief aide denied the records existed. The citizen then went to the office of House Speaker Marco Rubio, whose staff was able to produce the public records that Kreegel's aide said did not exist.

You'd think that an MD and professor of medicine should be able to remember if he sent an email...or maybe he needs to have his license revoked. Another Republican liar!

1. ....university demoted Richter from adjunct professor to a "teaching assistant."

...... The e-mails indicate that Millman called an official at Hodges University and later e-mailed her a list of Web sites that identify Canterbury as not accredited by U.S. organizations.

Jeanette Brock, executive vice president of academic affairs at Hodges, said Millman called her and questioned Richter's credentials. As a result, the university demoted Richter from adjunct professor to a "teaching assistant."

A few days after Millman's call to university officials, the Fort Myers News Press raised questions about Richter's educational credentials. The news account quoted Kreegel questioning the "deception" and wondering "what else he's lying about."

Robert Anderson, president of a citizens watchdog group in Lehigh Acres, filed a public records request with Kreegel's office on Oct. 10, seeking any communications between any members of Kreegel's office andHodges University.

Millman answered Anderson by e-mail: "We have no records responsive to your request."

2. Hey, he's a Republic. Therefore, he is a liar and a Hypocrite!

You are surprised?

4. I don't think Republics forgive

They do, however, issue pardons.

5. so what does this have to do with being an md and a professor of medicine?

you figure somehow professors are incapable of forgetting anything?

6. Exactly!

I would expect that an MD and professor to have a much more accurate memory of sending multiple illegal emails than your average joe. Only lawyers are likely to have inconsistent memories...

which is one reason that it is clear that he was lying!
