Kentucky has borrowed nearly $474 million from the federal government to pay unemployment benefits this year and the total will likely reach $1 billion before the state’s economy improves.
A Billion dollars is a lot of money for the average Kentuckian. It all becomes play money in the halls of Frankfort, though.

My favorite left of center blogger from Lexington celebrated the addition of new protected groups under Federal hate crime law.

Many offensive demonstrations have been made against Christianity without the [...]
