    Yep. 100%

    I disagree.

    This is more an obfuscation action on the part of OweMalley.

    He is willing to do anything to have SB281 survive a lawsuit come 10/1. If any portion of SB281 is sucessfully challenged in court, OweMalley will be considered a disgrace.

    I suggested that yesterday (though I never do go to The Site that Shall Not be Named), but got no response.

    Kenn Blanchard should be brought in on it, as should Lollar.

    OK, posted to A. Jones through their FB link. He may have presentation issues but he does make the right kind of noise more often than not.

    People within MSP leadership have been non-antagonistic toward us all throughout this. Some have even taken a neutral position. Some have been reassigned to the state equivalent of a radar station in Alaska.

    I am not at all ruling out that this has at least one finger pointed that way.

    I'll assume for the moment that the file itself may be encrypted... but it's useless if 200+ people are accessing it with the SAME CREDENTIALS!!!

    Even more useless when they are accessing a non-secured site to enter the data....the site is NOT secured. Traffic is NOT encrypted..it's going in the clear.

    I think the state's actions are indicative of how desperate they have become. Instead of heading off a lawsuit, they've made it very likely they'll be more than one. This blew up in their face big time. God Bless the person who alerted AGC to this scam.

    This kind of behavior on the part of MOM and Gansler is criminal IMO. This was willful and intentional and it proves both criminal behavior and incompetence on their part. Rip them a new one.
