Those folks at the Riverfront Times can flat out write! This is good stuff.

"Kinder, you may recall, recently came under fire for using government money to subsidize his lavish stays at local hotels during his frequent trips to St. Louis. (He's since promised to pay back the money.)

"Yesterday, the lieutenant governor's car, a 2009 Ford Flex, was reportedly stolen in Cape Girardeau and promptly rammed into a gun shop. The vandal then torched the car and left it burning on a county road."

"Came under fire" and then the stolen car was burned. Well played.

Meanwhile, I think it's pretty well known that when "stolen" cars are burned the owner is often seeking an insurance payoff of the auto loan. Just sayin...

If you click on the Riverfront Times link (and get past that photo of one-half of her peach ofa pair) they really look like brother and sister.

Really.

"Kinder — who is now widely believed to be mounting a challenge to incumbent Governor Jay Nixon, a Democrat — suggested she move into his Brentwood condo."

Looks to me like Kinder has already got a challenge to his mounting.

I clicked on that Riverfront Times link. Ms. Chapman's photo is, well, uplifting. The caption "Tammy Chapman, featured in this August 1992 Penthouse spread..." Somebody at that paper has quite a sense of humor!

Meanwhile, " Chapman says. 'It was like going straight back to the past when he’d offer to have me come to events in Cape Girardeau all the time.'"

And we all know Cape Girardeau's favorite son.

This is gross. I got nothing, other than everyone in the article uses the same tanning spray used by Boehner.
