Dogmann,it's OK-feel free to call people communist whenever you can.

So now it's all one big free market conspiracy and we all have rings in our noses...and can't think for ourselves and..and.....

Anyone else ever notice how "Nevaduh" is full of whiners...especially when they're guilty of not following known industry standards, best practices or are incompetent and slooooow to respond when a crisis errupts? Perception IS reality at this point.

So to sum it up, how could the board possibly know anything unless the media alerts them-damn that's scary but thank God. And... Clark tried to act but couldn't because gosh darn it,those records were confiscated by the mean ol'police and well that just screwed up the Board's whole timely investigation, and...and...and those meanies in the media got it all wrong and...and...and...those pesky politicians who represent the poopy-headed public....they don't get it either and gosh darn it I'm a lawyer and I know the law and...and...

Please, someone get that man some cheese-preferably Limburger-to go with his whine. Clark needs to leave already.

"Who will be anointed next? Predictions?"
Yeah....Goodman. Charisma factor and the leadership on the Hep C issue.

Regarding that misogynistic posit that male pundits keep tossing out re: ..."a woman scorned".....

If I helped you get where you are today,raised our child for you,cleaned up around the toilet you couldn't hit if Cherrios were floating in it and propped your lame ass up when you royally screwed up,you're damn skippy...Gas,Grass or Ass, someone is gonna pay and tag...Jimmy is it.

I can see how men would fall back on the theory of the whole "woman scorned" thing because it's easier to toss that out than to examine the power issues here. Men are the ruling gender in this state-and society for that matter-and it's seems there are 2 things men with power understand:money and humiliation. She's treating him just like the success object he is. It not about revenge or fury, it's about paying now or later. I guess Jimmy decided on the "pay later" plan.

Dawn has apparently been invaluable to him in getting him elected as he obviously has the personality of petrified wood. I hope she can collect her due compensation in whatever form that takes.

Rogers is right. This slash and burn policy of Gibbons is short sighted. Again, Gibbons appears unconcerned with matters of this state or it's future.

Hmmmm...If US health care is so good then why does the US rank 2nd in infant mortality in the developed world? Just currious.

true-you're right on target. All Las Vegas has to do is look at the rust belt and the cities that relied on one industry. Yeah, they had a good run for about 100 years and now nothing.

If Las Vegas does not diversify its business base it will be doomed to the same fate as the rust belt. You can't diversify and attract other industries here with an uneducated workforce. Investment in UNLV is crucial if Las Vegas wants to avoid future extinction.

It's about time someone lit a fire under someones a$$ and cut through the bureaucracy.

To LV,
Amen.

For all future issues where Gibbons' office might be contacted by the media-no matter what the issue-Keickhefer should just hand out the statement..."The governor is never directly involved, and that his office never_________.'

To LVLawDog,
I appreciate and understand your analysis from a taxation standpoint. However,these extra profits earned or taxes collected from one institution or Mr.Farmer does not seem to 'trickle down' to cover increased local demands in public services-in our schools or in our hospitals. When I lived Dallas, it was the same. A large undocumented immigrant population without health coverage using Parkland hospital's ER as a primary care facility-just as UMC and other valley hospitals are being used today. I'm not convinced we're seeing any parity in public services due to the fact undocumenteds'employer is paying more in taxes vs wages.
