Davis is like the Energizer Bunny of corruption, isn't he?

All must pay respect to Don Davis. Its just business as usual.

It'a odd that the Bee would notice and put it in print.

Earlier this year, when Davis learned that one of his top technology aides, Arun Baheti, had accepted a $25,000 campaign check from a lobbyist for Oracle Corp., Baheti was fired.

Wrong...After it was disclosed by a bay area newspaper, he claimed ignorance and canned to patsy.

If this type of reporting is being published by McClatchy maybe Simon does have a chance.

I have never, in 40 years, seen McClatchy publish such accusitory information about a Democratic politician before an indictment.

Even Jesse Unruh and Alan Cranston were treated as gods by this Democratic rag until their fall from grace was official.

"* Doug Bosco, a member of Congress from 1982 to 1990. Like Dombrowski, he is a Davis appointee to the Industrial Welfare Commission. He said he has held "about 10" fund-raisers for Davis.

In an example some Davis critics say illustrates how the governor's appointees guard the interests of big campaign contributors, Bosco's former law partner and a former congressional aide were appointed by Davis to the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board, where they helped block timber cleanup regulations opposed by Pacific Lumber. "

Bosco was involved in the Oracale debacle and resigned his role. I thought he was in the dust bin of 'rats caught in the act. He was our state senator on the North Coast and his father in law was in the timber business.

A friend of mine was to serve on the Water Quality Board until some group railed against his former business contacts with Pacific Lumber and he said he retired to enjoy life. He just told Doofus to forget it. He is a staunch Repub and I wondered why he even considered.
