A note about having others swipe for you. During the pandemic (the time period we are mainly discussing) my school used the proximity card system to track who was in the building for contact tracing purposes. Even if you got to the door with other people, you were all expected to swipe individually.

Are we to believe they did not enact this simple measure in KY?

The guards should certainly be able to identify the governor and let him in themselves without forcing him to resort to his own key. Unless they've never seen him before for some reason.

I intend to criticize him until he disappears, which can't be soon enough. My criticisms are entirely divorced from any consideration of his skin color.

Cameron was a much more interesting story when it was rumored he was somehow related to Moscow Mitch by marriage. Now he's just boring.

"General Cameron"

Stop it with calling Attorney Generals and Postmaster Generals "Generals." Or even Majority Leaders just "Leaders."

Just stop it. Stop it now!

We could also talk about "attorneys general" as opposed to "attorney generals," but that may be gilding the lily!

That aside, I agree.

You are more correct. From Columbia Journalism Review:

"Which is correct attorneys general or attorney generals? “General” here, though, is an adjective, not a noun; you can think of them as “general attorneys.” So the plural goes on the noun, and the proper form is “attorneys general.” Unless you're British. Then you can call them “attorney-generals,” but don't forget the hyphen."

Even in the military, the "general" is an adjective. They are "general officers."

Do people call inspectors general "general"? I think not.

Do not call me General. Period.

I think he tried to say that he works out of some 'satellite' state AG offices sometimes, but I don't know if that turned up zip, zero, nada as well on the security records.

JFC, he is an idiot. Just say it's your security detail swiping. Or that you drive in with your chief of staff every day so you can talk and have coffee along the way, and that person swipes in for both of you.

Or you always show up when it's busy, and one of your colleagues / co-workers opens the door for you (or holds it open).

It is kind of funny how we associate the word "General" with the military, because we refer to "general officers" as "generals" rather than "officers" (using the adjective rather than the noun) to be more specific and not include all the junior officers. Further adding confusion is that the Surgeon General wears a military uniform, so people figure it's because of the "General" name in the title, so then they wonder why an Attorney General doesn't also get a cool military uniform with patches for all those cases they won and wounds they sustained to their attorney reputation.

My brother-in-law flosses his teeth regularly, every six months on his way to the dentist.

But he uses a tooth pick regularly. Always has one in his mouth?
