And this is how corruption works on the Pacific Coast.

More background to Mark’s Weekly Standard piece here and here: the short version is that Cover Oregon’s rollout led to a disaster which led to an apparent cover-up – and pointed fingers (which is to say, ‘lawsuit’) between Kitzhaber and software giant Oracle. Kitzhaber was, as recently as last month, still suggesting that there’d be a settlement favorable to his administration on that issue; there may still be one, but he may not be there to collect the check… largely because it would appear that Kitzhaber was letting his fiance act as the go-to person for what are delicately called ‘consulting fees.’ As you can see, the Oregonian is quite livid…
…now that John Kitzhaber has been re-elected, and thus can safely be replaced by another Democrat. I mean, the Oregonian clearly knew that Kitzhaber was playing a variant of the game that Sheldon Silver played; this story broke before the election. Didn’t stop them from endorsing the Democrat anyway. Because, hey, God forbid you elect a Republican to statewide office in Oregon.

Funny how the close elections always seem to break the Democrats’ way in the Pacific Northwest states, huh?

Moe, the Seattle and Portland DemoKKKrat Machines pretty much run the Northwet whether We The People want ’em to or not.
Save yourselves while you still can… jettison the Left Coast from the Union–just make sure you give us right-thinkers on the wrong side of the future border plenty of time to repatriate to OUR country first.
I once had a funny reaction from my gal, who’s a Canadian citizen, when I’d suggested our countries should trade the Left Coast, New York and New England for Alberta and Saskatchewan, and she basically said “HELL NO, we don’t want ’em either!” When you’re too Left even for a Torontonian (though she’s more conservative than the norm for there) that’s REAL bad news…
