Memo indicates that MO GOP Gov Blunt lied in records scandal

http://www.firedupmissouri.com/system/files/Eckersley+Over+Blunt++11-12-07.jpg

The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS | An aide to Gov. Matt Blunt sent a memo challenging his boss�s stance on deleting e-mails weeks before he was fired, a memo shows.

The existence and content of the memo, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press, contradict public statements by Blunt and his top officials after the aide, staff attorney Scott Eckersley, was fired in late September.

Blunt officials have repeatedly said that Eckersley never challenged � orally or in writing � their policy of deleting office e-mail. Those officials have said Eckersley brought up the issue only on the day he was fired.

1. He comes from a slimey family. Hope he'll have to face more questions about this,

and lose the election in 2008. Blunt really needs to leave, and Jay Nixon would make a WONDERFUL Democratic governor.
It's a real wonder he hasn't run already.

2. I'm sure the DOJ is looking into it.
