If an elected official in any capacity in this state can double dip while on Military Leave, not show up for work, not have to take vacation and or sick leave while absent, something is terribly wrong. <br />I would think any public employee in any capacity whether it be city, county, or state would be charged criminally for doing any of these things,and terminated. <br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-35687295341339765532018-06-28T22:40:28.213-05:002018-06-28T22:40:28.213-05:00Boom.

How soon you forget Cindy Bryant-Hyde. She may have a 2% better chance since Wicker is running her ads now and Bryant continues to push her name in front of us. Otherwise, she has maybe a 30% chance of election. <br /><br />Now she's posing with a Patriot Guard member. Next she'll be in 'jeans and high boots' on the back of Phil's borrowed motor scooter (state flag curiously hoisted in the background just for the sake of subliminal messaging).

Of course we know what those two think of good government."<br /><br />AMEN! Greer is a credible and honest man who knows the value of hard work and dedication. Arguably the best hire made in Madison County in the past twenty years until two goober-hicks who think they run the county reminded him that his employment was contingent upon pleasing them and ran him off. <br /><br />When you are dead set on unscrupulous shenanigans, the last thing you want around is an honest employee. That defines Gerald Steen and David Bishop who ran Greer off. Greer would be an excellent candidate for the job of Auditor. If anybody has any dirt on him or bad things to say about him, POST IT! You can't.

Anyone know what the veteran's position pays? My guess is that Pickering is receiving a substantial raise. The auditor's job doesn't pay very well. It is really time for the salaries of statewide officials to be increased. As it is, very few qualified people can live off those salaries unless they are independently wealthy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-73346343212949913322018-06-26T13:51:53.330-05:002018-06-26T13:51:53.330-05:00Phil limits his appointments to USM alums.

Is gambling going on in the next room also? <br /><br />Pickering has been trying to get an appointment to damn near anything for the past several years - ED of DOR; ED of Community College Board; anything - as long as it gave him a higher salary. Claims he couldn't afford to keep the Auditor job and its $90k/year (plus of course, doing like Jim Hood and Lynn Fitch, living out of their "campaign" accounts). <br /><br />To those that are commenting on what a great job he did as auditor - name three cases of significance that he went after. Not a Deputy Clerk in the Chancery office, or a retired Justice Court Judge, but rather some significant corruption. Refused to touch a county supervisor anywhere in the state - acting on the theory that they are politically powerful and he needed their support (probably something he learned from his predecessor). Always quick to give a reason why he couldn't look into corruption reports, and reluctant to take on cases with officials who's name would mean something in a news article.<br /><br />Of course, since his recent "mobilazations" (actually deployments seeing as how he volunteered for them) he has been able to supplement his state salary by collecting it AND his military salary on top - instead of offsetting it as most military/elected officials do. Legal, I'm sure, but appropriate is questionable.<br /><br />Wish him well in his new position - another entitlement handed to the Pickering clan.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-44031502829855608182018-06-26T11:11:03.428-05:002018-06-26T11:11:03.428-05:00Billy Hughes.
