Not A Six-Pak, But A Three-Pak

on

Dad Mark Lepak is in the state House, a Republican from Claremore. Daughter is on the State Board of Educaiton. And now son is legal advisor to Gov. Kevin Stitt.

Makes one wonder what wife Lepak does?

Because of the endless turn over in Stitt’s administration, he had to go deep on the Lepak bench of far right fielders to find a lawyer and no wonder. I can’t name a single lawsuit Stitt’s team won, whether it related to tribes or the endless stream of unconstitutional pablum passed by our Legislature.

Look. I don’t believe most Oklahomans want their tax dollars spent in and on the Catholic Church. The Lepak family does, as does our goofiest public official in history, state Superintendent Ryan Walters.

Stitt didn’t bother to vote very often before he was elected governor nor did he read much about our foundational documents such as The Constitution, Bill of Rights, amendments thereto.

He also is raising money for the group of out-of-state dark money bundlers who are attempting to remove three of our Supreme Court justices who don’t lick his boots or kiss his ass. They know the law, because they are well experienced lawyers, while Stitt is a crass, uninformed, pompous and arrogant businessman who is all hat and no cattle.

And finally, Governor Know Nothing should be thankful for the performance and behavior of Superintendent Walters because without him Clueless Kevin would have the lowest approval record among our statewide elected officials.

One respected poll has Stitt at 31% and, unbelievably, Ryan is in single digits, coming in at 9%.

Sadly, both have two more years to plague our state and its public services, but then the governor is term-limited and Ryan will be unelectable to any office.

Maybe they should open a church school with money from millionaire Kevin and Walters could be the superintendent.

Talk about a marriage made in heaven or, depending on who you ask, hell.
