View Full Version : Virginia Court Rejects Climate Skeptic’s Demand for Records
Virginia AG Ken Cuccinelli, darling of the right and a global warming denier, gets the smackdown from the VA Supreme Court.
How many taxpayer dollars has Cuccinelli wasted on his witch-hunt against Michael Mann?

After reading the article I thought, I'll bet this guy, Cuccinelli, is on the Koch payroll. So I looked around and, lo and behold: http://www.southernstudies.org/2011/11/attorney-with-group-targeting-climate-scientists-emails-featured-at-koch-funded-conference.h
He's a paid, Koch toadie.
Don't the people of Virginia give a damn that their attorney general is wasting their taxpayer money, and his time in office, to carry out the personal vendettas of some billionaire, extremist libertarian from New York?
I guess our politicians can start dropping even the pretense of doing anything other than serving the interests of their plutocrat overlords.

The AG is an asshole. I can not wait until he is out of office this November.
