Now,now he only "borrowed her until he had a green card.

Win win for everyone involved and the statute of limitations for prosecution is long over. She is not running for governor and the whole marriage-divorce was wrapped up years before she began dating Kitzhaber.

Give us more Palin!!

Cylvia Hayes, the fiancee of Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber (D), has admitted that she married an Ethiopian immigrant in 1997, in exchange for money, so that he could obtain a green card.

That was Haile Selassie of her.

Aw, never mind this. Did any open-carry loon get his gun stolen from him again? Cause any stories of that kind are going into the "Funniest Stories on TPM – 2014’ file.

Meanwhile I am torn as to whether or not the particulars of the ‘Thrilla in Wasilla’ should go in, partly because the Snowbilly Brawl was in Anchorage.

50 years ago, a pretty, young female acquaintence asked me to marry her for similar reasons. I said sure, as long as I can claim regular conjugal visits. That was the end of the negotation.

Five thousand dollars? I know a girl who was offered thirty thousand dollars to marry a foreigner who wanted citizenship last year. Man has inflation spiraled out of control. Thanks, Obama. Even the cost of fake marriages has gone up.

But meanwhile, all anyone has to do to become a citizen is line up and fill out the paperwork. Or so say anti-immigration folks who are angry at all the people who come in illegally. And they’re never wrong.

For $5,000 cash U.S. I myself would consider marrying a woman who could only speak word salad English and exhibited no discernibly rational behavioral patterns.

I would consider it my higher calling as a good 'Murican cit’zen.

Even if she was Sarah Palin.

What does this have to do with anything? TMZ, sorry, I mean TPM, really should be focusing on important political coverage of which there is plenty. I fail to see how this Politico=style piece about a governor’s girlfriend’s decisions 15 years ago has any relevance at all.

Like she said, a marriage of convenience. Just like the royals of yesteryear did, and no one’s throwing them in the garbage bin.

Sorry, no funny stories. Just more stories of supposedly trained current or former law enforcement officers unintentionally discharging weapons as a demonstration of the risk of having teachers or staff carrying weapons at schools. Only 1 mourning family after this pair of screwups.

26-year-old David Kedra of East Coventry Township, Chester County was mortally wounded Tuesday in an accidental shooting at a Plymouth Twp. firing range.

“It’s with an extremely heavy heart and deep sorrow that I announce the tragic death of Trooper David Kedra of Troop K, Skippack station,” State Police Commissioner Frank Noonan said in a statement Tuesday night.

According to Noonan, Kedra was shot in the chest during a training exercise at the Montgomery County Public Safety Training Complex on the 1100 block of Conshohocken Road around 4:45 p.m.

Sources say he was in a classroom for a demonstration of how to break down and clean his service weapon. They say an experienced state police firearms instructor was handling a gun that somehow misfired.

The bullet hit trooper Kedra in the chest.

A criminal justice instructor at Technology Center of DuPage in Addison accidentally discharged a handgun during class Friday afternoon, striking a file cabinet and hollow wall, officials said.

The instructor, a retired FBI agent, wasn’t authorized to have the gun on school property, said Jim Thorne, the school’s director.

“It’s not part of the curriculum. It’s nothing we knew he had,” Thorne said.

Three students were watching the instructor’s demonstration about 1:30 p.m. in an office adjacent to a classroom, where other students were preparing for the start of class, Thorne said.

No one was struck by the bullet, which ended up lodged in another classroom, he said.

It would be my duty as a fellow citizen to save you from yourself. This isn’t cable TV, man. You can’t just hit the remote when you want the crazy to stop.

Oh man, you are a true patriot!

This woman is a goddess…
here in Oregon, her background bio is not an issue
of any kind, Dylan.
…her story could just as well be the story of any of us…women,
men…She is a remarkable person, She I!. Watch, and listen to the
kind and beautiful voices from our faraway northwestern state,
Orgeon!

This is an OUTRAGE!!! If the governor’s fiance was involved in this kind of crime against humanity back in the 20th century, it clearly disqualifies him from public service. How do we know this “immigrant” wasn’t an Islamoterrorist? How do we know that Kitzhaber didn’t allow this because he wants more terror attacks in our country?

DON’T LOOK AT THESE FACTS AND TELL ME THAT DEMOCRATS DON’T HATE AMERICA!!!

Also, I heard that Michelle Nunn’s sister-in-law’s cousin had a dog when he was a kid that bit somebody.
