UPDATE - How can the State of Idaho approve lurking on this blog for 2 hours and 16 minutes?
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Recently KREM TV in Spokane interviewed Jim Risch about errors on a government web site dealing with stimulus money, http://www.recovery.gov.
Idaho has racked up $1.2B for 2300 jobs.
In the interview Risch chided about the errors on the web site as an example of why people don't trust government.
Risch did not mention that people do not trust Idaho state government, especially the Idaho Tax Commission.
Of course Risch can't go there because he is one of the "Boise Boys".

Oil and Water Don't Mix
And neither do Dirk Kempthorne and ethics.
More political propaganda from Boise as Dirk Kempthorne plies his carefully chosen words to make you believe he has ethics.
Kempthorne, while governor, protected the illegal activities of the Idaho Tax Commission. His staff failed to follow through on an investigation of a specific complaint that was promised to a member of the legislature.
His office even went so far as to state that since they were not named in a protection order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, they did not have any obligation to see that it was enforced.
I guess Dirk owed more to his back room dealings with Duwayne Hammond, Severina Haws, Larry Watson, Colleen Grant and Larry Wasden.
Now that the legislature is about to start up again for the 2009 session what more shenanigans can we expect on the tax commission cover up?

Chit Chat
Betsy (BZ) Russell, the go-lightly Boise reporter for the Spokesman Review in Spokane hosts a blog that reports on the oddities of S. Idaho.
Russell hasn't ever been willing to report on the oddities of the tax commission. Maybe this is the reflection of the LMT's concept that uncovering irregularities at this agency might "hurt too many people".
Would those 'people' be government hacks?
