THE TIMES RECORD ENDORSEMENT, IMMATURITY, AND TERM LIMITS. October 22, 2012
Two term double-dipper State Representative Stephanie Malone is seeking a third term in the Arkansas State Assembly.
Ms. Malone states she was not mature in the first two terms; however she claims the maturation process has deemed her mature. It remains to be seen what areas of maturation she refers to—mentally, educationally, or legislatively, etc. Rep. Malone states she has now grown into the position of state legislator. It is obvious from her own statement that she has languished in the legislature for 4 years practicing on the job training, which seriously points up the fact that she may have not matured after all and has been a legislative zero like her uncle Senator John Boozman, “the Global Travelling Manâ€.
Recall Ms. Malone, formerly employed by the open borders, cheap labor Fort Smith Chamber of Commerce, and along the way was put in charge of UAFS’s farcical “Entrepreneurial†School and is now out marketing for the Fort Chaffee Redevelopment Authority (perhaps triple government dipper).
Representative Malone bloviates that state government is complicated and can take several terms to really understand it, the lie all politicians promote, which translates directly to arrogant incompetence. GOVERNMENT IS NOT COMPLICATED AND IS A VERY SIMPLE PROCEDURE IF CONDUCTED HONESTLY & CONSTITUTIONALLY. WHAT IS COMPLICATED IS FERRETING OUT THE POLITICAL & FINANCIAL CORRUPTION WHICH IS RAMPANT IN ALL GOVERNMENT.
Rep. Malone, in league with the open borders, cheap labor Chambers of Commerce is advocating an extension of term limits….exactly what we DON’T need. Malone is a ward of big government and follows its edicts and at the same time big government likes absolute control. Then there is the personal aspect if elected, she will be termed out in the next 2 years; therefore her interest in 12 year term limits. She says she supports term limits (Huh?) but just likes to see them raised, in this case doubled, which is analogous to being “just a little bit pregnantâ€.
Politicians practice the principle of The Divine Right of Kings…in this case Queens. They quickly believe they deserve to be lifers in a political office, but of course this can only occur through the acts of simple minded voters.
This by no means that I support the other government double-dipper.
