Well I just heard {and I don't remember which channel, cause I was flippin to find the current temps outside here }
That, Gov. Richardson is now under investigation? for Pay to Play deal with favors for a California company for Government contracts?!

Sheeesh, might not being getting a new NM Gov.? OR does that mean he'd get tossed for Commerce Sec. and retain his NM Gov. position? OR be remove and then a New Gov.?

Anyone else heard this this morning? I just have short time at the moment to {not} look online, got cooking/baking going on.


Tia Dalma, wondering

yep, heard it last night on FOX news and it was in the paper here this morning. Don't know what will happen, but it makes for an interesting conversation to say the least...I won't give my view of this quite yet cause I will get blasted from some in NM.

If ya heard it on Fox noise it has to be B.S. as this tabloid travesty of a news channel, actually the propaganda wing of the now obviously completely dishonest GOP, has absolutely zero credibility, except among the witless yokels, neo-con scammers, bible thumping, money worshipping zips and multitudes of easily impressed, low information carney-lovers. Please change the channel and read some legitimate printed investigative media before ya'll go scampering around again screeching "the sky is fallin'!"

I love Fox News, and I have no problem with the credibility of their news. Most people who have a problem with it prefer to get their news from the mainstream media, which can be called names as well for their credibility and bias.

I have heard the story about Gov. Richardson on local (ABQ) radio. Do the radio stations elicit your scorn as well?

Where exactly can one find "legitimate printed investigative media"?

It's not only Fox news that's reporting on a problem:

dracul: Don't hold back...say what what you really mean! By the way, I agree with you concerning Faux News. I saw something about Gov. Richardson's troubles on CBS; apparently, there is really something to it.

The Rachel Maddow show on MSNBC is my favorite news program.

Luv Rachel!!! Despise all despicable things Fox. If the guv has problems and LEGITIMATE news agencies are vetting this issue then let the fat fall to the fire. Faux Noise has so twisted most political issues that few besides the pie-eyed, ever faithful, true believers give this Mur-duck tainted cabal much cred. Sorry Towanda, you may be sweetheart and all, but Hannity, bill-o the clown, Anne Cult-ure, et al, ad nauseum, are rotting your brain. Good luck on your investigations, nevertheless, and try Politico for starters, take a mild sleep aid and meditate

Definitely not interested in arguing politics or news media outlets with you.

There are two sides to everything.

I know what I believe and I am comfortable with it.

Peace.
