The Lexington, MS Chancery Clerk Office is writing and signing court orders as they call them on anything you can dream up. These court orders may turn out to be just a piece of paper. When one of the fake papers is supposed to be taken out the no good law enforcers show up. No one ever go to court they are just hassling law biding citizens for going about committing no crimes. Try to get a copy of the order from MS Smith in the Chancery Clerk Office and all you will get is long waits on the phone, no return calls, go to the office and she is conveniently out of the office. When you finally get to speak with her she give you the run around, or she will tell you, you will get copies and it/they wont show up. She act as if she is apart of the fake crimes they are running on the people in the county. After months of talking with this woman you may finally get a copy of the order. This woman needs to be kicked out of the Chancery Clerk Office along with the entire sheriff department and the criminal throwing away money in Washington D.C.

Jokers - this is not about partisan politics - it is about ethics - what little remain in today's political scene.
This is EXACTLY what the nation needs - a date with the truth. Taking action on this IS leadership. Ensign used government money to try to silence the creeps involved, hired a relative for an outrageous salary, and lied about it all on numerous occasions. Two-timing your wfe is not an ethics violation. But the rest is, and Ensign's hypocrisy regarding "family values" was grotesque - even for the jaded eyes of most of us. He even tried to avoid resigning - couldn't even "man-up" to do that.
You are right - Ensign's behavior is nothing to be proud of or laugh about. Doing the right thing is always time well spent. Glad this slime is moving on....

Just Libs doing what Neocons did when they were in power. Nothing to be proud about or laugh about. Irrelevant to the leadership the country needs. Its a waste of time.

Maybe he should have just taken the GOP Party line with her - "No!" Oh, wait, they only use that line while they are in session. Not heard too often at their Georgetown hang outs...
