More Gov't corruption

10-19-07, 10:05 PM

This time in the office of emergency management, Colorado. Approved by Susan Kirkpatrick, the executive director of the Department of Local Affairs.

The e-mail was sent at 11:41 a.m. on Friday by David Holm, who had recently been the acting director of the Division of Emergency Management.

I love this part. How much do you want to wager that the credit cards are state issued.
Holm says they will be using the personal credit cards from Kirkpatrick and Holm, and not their own.

And you wonder why I dislike and I don't trust Gov't.

Give this fellow David Holm a call. I bet he is getting many calls.

Until you realize that OEM computers block all other internet activity. And that these folks are around for protecting the citizens from harm and not for personal gain. One office (200 people) get all the tickets.

Tip of the iceberg.

Call it a job perk. They are using there own time and legal credit cards. The only thing they are doing is using the power of a super computer. 'Improper use' is all you can say. 'Don't do it again.' No big deal.

An update.

9Wants to Know has learned that two state agencies told more than 1,500 employees Monday not to use state computers to buy their World Series tickets.

The e-mails, sent by the Colorado Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) and the Colorado Dept. of Public Safety, were sent to employees at 9:30 Monday morning, just 30 minutes before tickets went on sale online.
