Crony Express VI
« McConnell's Re-election Bid | Main | Double Standards »The train keeps on rolling! Gov Beshear today selected Adam Edelen as the executive director of Kentucky Office of Homeland Security.
Edelen, whose firm manages area Applebees restaurants, returns to government where he worked as an aide to former Democratic Gov. Paul Patton. He also has served as vice president of the Lexington Chamber of Commerce. (emphasis added)
Once again we are treated to another Democrat crony. I am wondering if the press is EVER going to question him about his appointments. He has selected 1 Republican. And that was for adjutant general. Does anyone even know what that position is or does? This is ridiculous! The vast majority of his appointments have been cronies from previous administrations.
Beshear spent the majority of his time during his inaugural address talking about unity. Yet while he says one thing he does another. He is filling his administration with nothing but Democratic partisans from previous administrations. This is a far cry from Fletcher's appointments. There is a massive disconnect here and I am surprised the main stream media hasn't noticed it as well. Oh wait, Beshear is a Democrat. That is why the press have turned a blind eye.
