Best on Blumenthal

Possibly the best single piece of journalism written on Attorney General Richard Blumenthal – that has not been written BY Mr. Blumenthal – is this one turned out by Bill Cummings, an investigative reporter for the Connecticut Post.

The "investigative reporter" although it was a fair piece . . . really just took a "lay-up" from you by using info all readily availble on yer blog. You could of been co-author :)

But did you notice how the Internet version(s) changed the title and convieniently left out The BULLYING line in the title. So the fairness lasted till the next edit

Hows this for SOME "investigative reporting" Blumenthal opportunity(s) . . .

1.) why doesn't someone report on the plants and creeps AG B has following around Linda McMahon w/ camera's and the sleazy disrupting tactics. Ask around Mr. Cummings

2.) Is he Kidding! Linda McMahon is outspending him. He has brutally outspent the opposition on every case he has brought forth (tripling the states budget). . . AND NOW that the "shoe is on the other foot" he whines like a little 2 year old about it . . . lets get a psychologist to Tony Soprano him while doing investigative reporter writing here :)

3.) Why does AGB take credit for taking on Special Interests- Electric Companies??? ( I dont know I thought they are Utilities) anyway . . . al lalong while CT still pays the 2nd highest electric bill in the country to Hawaii.

4.)Hows about cramming 20 years of one-sided interviews with Press Releases of the people AG B sued . . . or I personally would settle for just ONE article STARTING out from the other side's point of view WITHOUT or with Rebuttal.

5.)The other "favoritism" AND cases he has not pursued. Chris Dodd General RE AIG

6.)Why did Illinois get the lions share of the "pharmaceutical" case $$ . . . while CT got the lions share of the legal expenses

7.)The "sue first ask questions later" mentality got him drooling for quick PR . . . but Blumy forgot to check that he was suing his "own" client. How can you forego law 101

There is plenty of opportunities for an "investigative" reporter . . . to write novels here . . . even MSM reporters can throw in some short stories

Keep chipping away at his suit of chicken feathers Don . . . because the Press won't.

Donna

I am writing this for members of my family, and for others who may be interested.   My twin sister Donna died a few hours ago of stage three lung cancer. The end came quickly and somewhat unexpectedly.   She was preceded in death by Lisa Pesci, my brother’s daughter, a woman of great courage who died still full of years, and my sister’s husband Craig Tobey Senior, who left her at a young age with a great gift: her accomplished son, Craig Tobey Jr.   My sister was a woman of great strength, persistence and humor. To the end, she loved life and those who loved her.   Her son Craig, a mere sapling when his father died, has grown up strong and straight. There is no crookedness in him. Thanks to Donna’s persistence and his own native talents, he graduated from Yale, taught school in Japan, there married Miyuki, a blessing from God. They moved to California – when that state, I may add, was yet full of opportunity – and both began to carve a living for them...

The Blumenthal Burisma Connection

Steve Hilton , a Fox News commentator who over the weekend had connected some Burisma corruption dots, had this to say about Connecticut U.S. Senator Dick Blumenthal’s association with the tangled knot of corruption in Ukraine: “We cross-referenced the Senate co-sponsors of Ed Markey's Ukraine gas bill with the list of Democrats whom Burisma lobbyist, David Leiter, routinely gave money to and found another one -- one of the most sanctimonious of them all, actually -- Sen. Richard Blumenthal."

The Murphy Thingy

It’s the New York Post , and so there are pictures. One shows Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy canoodling with “Courier Newsroom publisher Tara McGowan, 39, last Monday by the bar at the Red Hen, located just one mile north of Capitol Hill.”   The canoodle occurred one day or night prior to Murphy’s well-advertised absence from President Donald Trump’s recent Joint Address to Congress.   Murphy has said attendance at what was essentially a “campaign rally” involving the whole U.S. Congress – though Democrat congresspersons signaled their displeasure at the event by stonily sitting on their hands during the applause lines – was inconsistent with his dignity as a significant part of the permanent opposition to Trump.   Reaching for his moral Glock Murphy recently told the Hartford Courant that Democrat Party opposition to President Donald Trump should be unrelenting and unforgiving: “I think people won’t trust you if you run a campaign saying that if Donald Trump is ...
