Kline's Lawuit Costs Can't be Compared to Stovall |
|
We recently learned that AG Kline spent over 2 million in taxpayer money for outside legal consulting costs - a big chunk of which - $152,700 went to Vincent Rue, who is a national anti-choice advocate. Most of that money went to pay for "expert" witnesses in the federal court lawsuit still pending a decision in Wichita. This is the same lawsuit where Kline testified that boys performing oral sex on girls were commiting a crime, but not girls doing the reverse. It is a sham to claim this money was needed for "expert" witnesses. Instead, this money was just a clandestine way to give taxpayer dollars to Kline's extreme, right-wing political friends and idealogues.
And any claim that AG Stovall spent similar amounts of money is comparing apples to oranges, as her water lawsuit against Colorado is all about basic human and governmental needs for water. And her tobacco lawsuit brought millions of dollars back to Kansas to be spent for improving children's health and education. These are legit goals of good government, and Carla Stovall should be proud of this record.
Kline's spendthrift activities are not designed to do anything except improve his chances for reelection. Fat chance there.

that all these things add up to him losing his job.
Something tells me he will but in this state you just never know.
I somehow missed (or forgot) about that case in Wichita, disgusting but typical old Double L.

I thought you did not like Morrison or am I just nuts? Oh wait, don't answer that!
I think he has a very good chance of beating Kline.
:hi: Have fun in Crawford!

4. No I don't like Morrison |
|
but I think he will beat double L Phill. Morrison is really hard core and a law and order type. I think he comes down too hard on kids and is a publicity hound. But those qualities are more well suited for the state AG than a county prosecutor. I will definitely vote for him.
