Dear editor:
Would someone, anyone, tell me what education, if any, and what experience, if any, and what personal background, if any, Jan Morgan -- this shamelessly self-promoting, past-her-sell-by-date woman (who nevertheless flaunts sex via painted-on jeans, tight sweaters and come-hither looks) -- has to be governor?
An AR-15 and a pair of 45s astride a Harley do not qualifications make.
Barbie-dolling gun-nuttery on Fox News qualifies her only for Fox News "analyst," not governor.
Sensationalizing cheap stunts on YouTube, e.g., a "Muslim-free zone" at her "Gun Cave" -- where white supremacists (no more distinctly identifiable than Muslims, but not banned) can wipe their feet on doormat jersies of black NFL players -- maybe qualifies her for racist and Islamophobe, but not governor of our multiracial state.
Writing for Breitbart (a single column as far as I can find) and other alternate universe rags qualifies her only for inmate, not even warden, of the loony bin called Arkansas politics.
Someone? Anyone? Her education? Experience? Past judgments? Personal life? Character as evidenced by a past life?
We know these things, personal details, about candidates for dogcatcher.
Why are they not available for a candidate for governor?
"I'm not Asa" or "Asa is a RINO" are not qualifications. "Make Arkansas great again" is empty rhetoric. "Drain the swamp" is recycled pabulum.
Give us facts, not slipperily packaged hype poseuring as "biography" that is anything but.
If the devil is in the detail, I suspect he will be found. When we get the details.
And we will get them!
Investigative journalists will see to that.
In the meantime, can someone, anyone, just give us a few facts, any facts, as to what qualifies this woman for governor?
