Boys & Lizs, it's time we get involved in politics with elections just a month away. I've done much research, and found that the judge in the following article has the exact platform we are looking to support.



Judge vows to testify in his misconduct case

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Associated Press

BENTON, Ky. -- Marshall District Judge Don Thomas says he will take the stand in his own defense today and fight allegations of judicial misconduct that will be heard this week in Paducah.

''I feel that it's very important that the truth come out,'' Thomas said. There will be about 45 witnesses, including some who have recanted earlier statements, ready to testify on his behalf, he said.

Thomas is the first judge in Western Kentucky to have a misconduct case aired publicly before the Judicial Conduct Commission.

Seven charges were filed in October against Thomas, including allegations that he used his office to help a woman with whom he was having ''a personal relationship,'' and that he asked exotic dancers who appeared in his court to give him ''a private show.'' Thomas has denied all the allegations.

''This hearing is important for me and for the people of Marshall County who elected me district judge,'' Thomas said, adding that he plans to seek a second term next year.

The hearing will begin at 9 a.m. CST at the federal courthouse in Paducah.

Three days have been set aside for the hearing, but it could take longer, said Jim Lawson, executive director of the commission.

If Thomas is found guilty, punishment could range from a private reprimand to removal from office. The former Marshall County attorney has been a judge since 1997. He has been allowed to continue his duties.


We need to recruit candidates like Judge Thomas. Let's put the HMWH stamp on America!

After 29 years I think I have audited most of those courses against my will. My wife could teach them, no problemo.

Seriously, she knows I would flunk most of that stuff and cuts me some slack because I have a lot of life insurance. That also keeps me honest since I know I could die in my sleep.

Side note: About 15 years ago my wife audited one of my classes at the university. She got the highest grade on the mid-term (95). She wouldn't stop giving me grief about the 5 points she lost. I wouldn't let her take final.

Saudi Weds Four in One Ceremony to Spite Ex-Wife

RIYADH (Reuters) - A Saudi man married four women in one night only to prove to his estranged first wife that he was still attractive, a newspaper reported on Saturday.

After the failed marriage which only lasted several months, the man's wife told him that "no woman would ever marry him," al-Watan newspaper said.
"So he swore to marry four women just to prove her wrong," it said.
Polygamy is relatively common in Saudi Arabia, a conservative society with deep Islamic and tribal roots. Under the country's Islamic law, men are allowed to marry up to four wives at the same time.

Yeah, he sure showed her, huh?
