Gregoire calls killer's field trip 'unfathomable' (Barf Alert!)

SEATTLE -- Gov. Chris Gregoire said it is "unfathomable" that an insane killer who spent three days on the run was taken on a field trip to a county fair. Phillip Arnold Paul was returned to Eastern State Hospital on Monday, one day after he was captured on a rural road during a manhunt involving dozens of law enforcement officers.

"I cannot understand why anybody would be taken on an outing, with the history of this individual, to a family day at a county fair," Gregoire said on Tuesday. "The fact that that happened, yes, is embarrassing to me and to the state. It's a wake-up call."

She would not speculate on what disciplinary action, if any, would be taken against those involved, but said all options are on the table.

Chrissie probably would have approved these field trips had she been asked. "Oh, yes, the inmates should be allowed to interact with nature and their fellow human beings! It will help rehabilitate them."

(She looks like Hillary's little sister.)

“Hart said Ho has a history of violence and mental illness, and that his mental condition causes him to be extremely afraid and suspicious when he is not taking medication.”

And he was walking around in downtown Seattle?

Gregoire got elected over Dino Rossi with the help of ACORN. Rossi beat her twice in recounts but thanks to dead people voting three times and other crappola, she won. That’s when the recounting stopped. The FBI should have investigated but did not.

"All options are on the table"

Starting with a long boring lecture by Mike Dukakis on the perils of furlows and killers. (granted, any speech by Mike Dukakis is long and boring)

Fraudoire stole the first one, back in ‘04, after losing on election night and the first recount, it took until the second “recount” to manufacture enough fraudulent votes to enshrine Fraudoire in an unbeatable position. That was proved in the “rematch” of ‘08, which was, as expected, a laugher in favor of the Fraud. Once a ‘Rat gets in, it is very hard to dig out.

My guess is that Fraudoire will appoint a "Blue Ribbon Commission" to "study" the problem and make "recommendations". Maybe Fraudoire can dig up Sam Reed to do another term as Fraudoire's Commissar.

Further proof of what our tax dollars are spent on, because they think we the people aren’t smart enough to handle our own money!

Because she’s condemning a problem she and her cronies created through their policies and political beliefs regarding crime and punishment.
