“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:34-35 NIV
Once again the immorality of the earth worshipers raises its evil head in Oregon as a Governor gets caught with his hand in the $olar cookie jar. Fortunately, thanks to the corruption of the Democrat Party activists in the state media they were able to divert his guilt long enough to get him re-elected for his 4th term beginning last month and keep the seat safe. Now they have a Stalinist in place of this Leninist who will maintain his graft and corruption schemes for another decade or two. Welcome to Moscow on the Willamette.
John Kitzhaber was Governor beginning twenty years ago when he used his Robert Redford looks to win the election after election with the ladies and maintained it then for two four year terms. He was as he called it a failed Governor taking the state from the middle of the pack to near the bottom in every category you could measure. His economic programs were to protect the spotted owl and closing state forests to proper management and running the lumber industry pretty much out of the state. Now those lumber towns have around a 30% unemployment rate with all of the drug, divorce and addiction issues that go along with them.
Once he completed his two terms he changed his occupation, but not his passion which was damaging the forest industry and renewable energy. During the eight year hiatus from Governor he struck up a relationship with another dirt worshiper who had a smalltime renewable energy company in Bend Oregon. Cynthia Hayes owned a pretty shaky operation from the start that specialized in solar energy. She has always been money hungry and even talked one of her boyfriends into investing into a pot growing operation that failed and nearly was arrested. She is an attractive woman who sells her assets to the highest bidder and when she met this John she saw a sugar daddy she could not pass up. He divorced his 2nd wife who he has a son with and they became a couple destined for the high lifestyle of Salem Oregon.
Once he regained the Governorship they became the consummate corrupt politicians. Using the smokescreen of Global Warming he began fleecing the state with a fury. Like all Dems in this state he thought he was being cute by funneling it through his spouse so he could keep his hands clean. She set herself up as a lobbyist while working out of the Governor’s office and even had business cards printed as the State First Lady even though they were simply shacking up. He was a huge proponent of solar and wind energy to protect mother earth and satisfy all of the dirt worshipers in Portlandia. These companies all lost money like Solyndra, but the Dems were able to deflect the blame from Kitzhaber since he was a Marxist just like them and needed to make Oregon more Marxist.
The interesting part of Oregon is that although it is considered a very liberal state, once you leave the twenty mile circumference of Portland the rest of the state is very conservative. Like most western states outside of California, the vast majority of the land mass is either independent or conservative it is simply overwhelmed by all of the gummit workers in P-Town.
The only reason they are able to maintain their Soviet model is the Repubs are so inept they cannot offer a decent alternative. This election they ran 120 year old man who tried to mirror Romney right down to being a Mormon who would not go on offense. He was so bad, like Romney in the final debate he was Mr Nice and actually read his final statement of why he should be elected off his laptop. He couldn’t even come up with a reason why he was running so why should the voters.
So Kitzhaber sailed to victory, but a funny thing happened as they left the coronation, one of the communist rebel newspapers actually did its job. The Willamette Weekly which is the most liberal paper in the state was the only newspaper that stayed on the story through the entire campaign and forced the floundering bOregonian to cover parts of it. The shoes began to fall and then a boot fell out when it was reported his fiancée did not report $180,000 in fees from a renewable energy firm on her taxes. All of the sudden tax evasion became something even people in Portland could understand and then his attempts to destroy evidence was revealed and jail time became a real possibility so the Party deserted him and he had to resign.
This is the problem when you have Marxists in control of your state for thirty years. They are the party of relativism and hate the Bible with all of its antiquated rules. These are fundamental cultists of the earth which gives them a sense of well being, but no moral direction. They simply make it up as they go and cover every lie or theft with moral justification. This Party has been in power for so long they have written all of the rules and laws to maintain their control so he believed he was a protected class and would get away with it. The problem he ran into is he did not want to report her tax returns to the elections board and so they hid the income from the people, but that type of income is going to be reported on the other side and eventually will be revealed and was.
This is what happens when you do not have Christians or God leading your leaders’ lives. Oh they may look and sound cool with their Robert Redford mustache, hair and blue jeans, but under that façade is a lie. He had no problem leaving his wife and kid for a younger wife to match his youthful looks, since she was hot for him and why not? He was able to kick business her way since it was helping the environment or saving the earth. After a while he was saving the earth more and more while Oregonians were losing jobs and money in his boondoggles. One windmill farm in Eastern Oregon cost Oregonians over fifty million dollars. Finally, he was making so much money in his little scratchy, scratchy system he could not launder the money fast enough and finally they were caught by the IRS. Now he is going to join some of his friends from big Chicago.
John Kitzhaber is the perfect symbol of a radical environmentalist. He worships a man god cult which all of the rules are made by man. He believes man is a god and he is godlike so he makes the rules. The problem is man is evil and will do things that are evil to satisfy the flesh. He of course is all about the environment and satisfying his needs which became more craven until he could not maintain his cravings for money and the hot younger wife. He believed his gods would satisfy and found they simply made him more and more empty, so now he is simply a hollow shell on his way to a very ugly trial. The Cinderella wedding and a final ride into the sunset have been upset by a collapsed bridge and a tumble into the Columbia. God is good, all the time and all the time God is good in his time. So much of this godless Marxism is being exposed that there may be an opening for his power to be revealed to his second favorite land, America. Oregon is America starting to change and this small state is taking a huge step in that direction.
Pray America is waking
Enough braying
I see you are in Tualatin. That brings back memories, as I was in Lake Oswego through high school and early life after that, and then spent some time in Portland before going on down to Dallas to help my aging dad, a few years back.
I really do like it in Oregon, though, despite whatever else in politics is a problem, there.
BUT ... I’ll tell you the difference between Christianity in Oregon, versus in Oklahoma and Texas. Around here, Christianity is everywhere, but a whole lot of it is “cultural” ... so it fools people from outside of the area.
However, Christianity in Oregon is not so cultural (in the general population) so it’s more of a “committed stance” than it is around here! Around here, if you’re a redneck, you’re “automatically” a Christian, and real Christians know that isn’t true.
SO ... many times I wish and long for the Christianity of Oregon than I do of Texas and Oklahoma.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer couple. May they enjoy their time behind bars.
LOLOLOLOL...silly me.
Well brayed.
If you think Oregon has won anything in this other than an even farther leftist Governor, think again
We shall see. There is another election coming.
Well said. God is so good, he has placed some people in the belly of the beast who know the beast better than most who worship him. You are right, it is cleansing to be persecuted in his name.
I just returned to my native Washington after a 17 year hiatus living in Corvallis, another god-less pocket in Oregon.
I feel so vindicated by the governor finally getting caught.
He and all his Marxist buddies need to get what they well deserve.
I think this has very little to do with the corruption, and a whole lot more to do with the fact that now a homosexual is going to be governor.
The corruption was simply the tool to get it into the governors chair.
She actually has a husband and lives with him. Apparently, she had a so called affair with a woman years ago. Most likely to build her cred in the Party, but she is heterosexual.
God moves in very mysterious ways. Oregon is where environmentalism began and is where it is going to end.
Nice writing Bray. This is the first complete article I have read in a long time. (pardon my grammar, I went to public school and am sick)
As a Floridian spending the weekend visiting phamily in Phoenix, I am essentially clueless about the Oregon situation. But Democrats in power do not allow little things like corruption to get in the way of their “progress,” so there has to be something deeper going on here.
My question: did the governor associate with the “wrong” branch of the Democrat hierarchy? Is this either Clintonistas taking out a Chicago supporter for one of their own, or the Chicago Way taking out a Clinton supporter for one of their own? Oregon is going to go Democrat in the 2016 election, so the only electoral question would be who gets the state apparatus support in the primary.
Anyone happen to know if I’m on the right track here, or if it’s something else?
That is a great question. I am pretty sure he was in the mainstream of the Marxist Dems, but he got sloppy. That and a newspaper actually doing its job and never letting go of the bone. Once they found she lied on her tax returns there was nothing the media or Dems could do to protect him.
He/his girlfriend got sloppy and then cornered by having to report the money. Most Dems like Pelosi/Reid/Feinstein have corporations owned by their family members they can launder the money through. She did not.
Thank you, why did you read it all the way through? What caught and kept your interest?
I too went to Lake Oswego High.
The only bit of good news I saw in the Oregonian was that a gun control group gave Kitzhauber $250,000. Down the toilet . . . yea.
Thanks for the information. Then what’s all this about being ‘the first openly homosexual governor’?
A celebration of the previous fling?
Cool ... about LOHS. Good ole Pilot Joe ... :-) ...
I first came there from Texas, and had that good ole Southern accent, so everyone wanted to know if I brought my horse and if I had six-guns ... LOL ...
And then we get lesbian, Kate.
