Were John Kitzhaber and Cylvia Hayes attempting to destroy evidence again?
Governor Kitzhaber could be seeing the inside of a prison cell if he’s found guilty in a federal probe.
Steve Buckstein of Cascade Policy comments on John Kitzhaber’s resignation by quoting Lord Acton: ‘Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” – Lord Acton, 1887’
John Kitzhaber issues a petulant letter blaming others for his professional demise.
From Steyer to Hayes to Kitzhaber
Cops, Reporters swarm Governor John Kitzhaber’s Southwest Portland Home. Anybody there…?
“This is the smoking gun. This is the smoking gun.”
John Kitzhaber did what he had to do: Say he loved his obviously unethical, greedy, grifter girlfriend while technically trying to cut her loose from his quickly troubling legal case.
