He thought he could do as Governor more than he did as Auditor in dealing with waste and corruption.<br /> Politically, these are two untouchables for different reasons as Mabus learned. <br />There's not a politician in the State that doesn't know these are fiefdoms and why.<br />The real problem is too many people in this State have benefitted from the corruption. You don't want to believe your family member or buddy are not the upstanding person you thought. You don't mind if they " lose" your <br />DUI but you don't want them to ignore other DUIs. You don't mind if Pells grants are abused and students paid for training for " jobs" that aren't available as long as your town benefits from the Junior Colleges and provides some activities in your town.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-61223388500094663102017-07-26T20:40:40.198-05:002017-07-26T20:40:40.198-05:00@ 7:29, I think anyone who has worked in state gov...@ 7:29, I think anyone who has worked in state government in Mississippi could write a book about all the crooked, criminal, and ignorant shit that goes on.

Remember when they sent the former MEMA employee to report on money issues involving federal grants? The former MEMA employee was a good friend to Robert Latham. While friendship may get you in the door to get an interview you become obligated to tell the positive story. The "State" paper was also the only news outlet that refused to publish a mug-shot of a former Brandon Police officer recently arrested who also has a shady past. Again, a friend of the reporter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-75119078371627056382017-07-26T08:28:25.948-05:002017-07-26T08:28:25.948-05:00As I have said on here several times before, MHP i...As I have said on here several times before, MHP is NOT beefing up anything during these national saturation periods.
