Impeachment proceedings need to be filed against both President Bush and Ernie Fletcher. There seem to be so many parallels and the biggest is they keep lying, working under the assumption if they keep saying it loud enough and long enough, people will believe them. Unfortunately, there is some history to support that notion. Mark Nickolas at BluegrassReport picked up Mark Chellgren's story for the AP gives us a rundown.

FRANKFORT, Ky. - Gov. Ernie Fletcher met with a former Democratic state representative about a job in a state highway garage, an appointment that became the subject of an indictment of Fletcher's former chief of staff, according to evidence released Wednesday by the attorney general's office.

Bill McCune, who was appointed to the state Personnel Board by Fletcher, said in an e-mail he met with Fletcher and former Rep. Jim Maggard in Fletcher's office in May 2004. "It was our understanding when we left the governor's office that this job would go to Jim," the e-mail said.

The communication is one of the first links that puts Fletcher in the middle of the kinds of Merit System hiring decisions that have been at the center of the lengthy special grand jury investigation of his administration.

Fletcher continues to dig his own grave and President Bush is picking out his shovel. It's a shame our state and our nation are being put through this. I can only hope enough of this sinks and things can be gotten under control soon our country won't have anything left.
