The U.S. attorney for has subpoenaed all of the state’s electronic records concerning Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber and his fiancee, Cylvia Hayes, issued the day Kitzhaber announced his resignation.

The subpoena, issued Friday, demands production of a massive trove of data dating back to a year before the governor’s 2010 inauguration and makes it clear that the four-term governor’s troubles will not necessarily end with his departure from office.

The demand for records was issued to the Oregon Department of Administrative Services and seeks “all information, records, and documents” for both Hayes and Kitzhaber.

Kitzhaber announced his resignation Friday, ending weeks of speculation about whether he could lead Oregon with at least two investigations into possible ethical breaches hanging over his head.

He will spend time with his attorneys and the fees will magically be paid by the taxpayers.

I cannot open the linked story but did they mention his party affiliation or did they “forget” to reference it?

The state’s two top legislative leaders and the state treasurer -- all Democrats, as is the 67-year-old governor -- had called on Kitzhaber on Thursday to resign.

the end of Kitzhaber's 36-year career in public service came swiftly and agonizingly.

Like this.....

The new governor is married to a man, but openly bisexual. So will she have a First Gentleman and First Lady?

“No public servant has given more to Oregon,” Courtney said after cataloging the former emergency room doctor’s long history in public service — as a state representative, a state senator, president of the state Senate and 12 years in the governor’s office, “longer than anyone else.”

I think we have found the problem! “12 years in the governor’s office, longer than anyone else.” This guy has a history of criminal behavior in office that he’s managed to evade for all this time.
Next RAT crook is waiting in the wings!

“Are there any “honest” politicians left?”

The “honest” answer: NO! Be they a RAT or a RINO, they are all dishonest to one degree or another. Anywhere a politician “settles in” for as long as Kitzhaber, you can bet he’s a crook! Can you say Sheldon Silver?

If this had been Scott Walker the story would have been front and center in every MSM in the country, with every gory detail.

This must be a mistake. Liberal democrats never resign. There must be some real dirty laundry for this. Even that scumbag William Jefferson, who had a freezer full of bribery cash for which he used a rescue crew to recover during the post Katrina floods in New Orleans, double downed on his crime and received standing ovations by fellow democrats.
