ordered it right after he was pushed into the public limelight, and she claims that it wasn’t political. Just standard operating procedure.

Ohio’s inspector general is investigating why a state agency director approved checking the state child-support computer system for information on “Joe the Plumber.”

Helen Jones-Kelly, director of the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services, confirmed today that she OK’d the check on Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher following the Oct. 15 presidential debate

[Always Right]

If someone is not fire, there is serious corruption in Ohio.

[YellowRoseofTx]

there is serious corruption in Ohio.

Apparently so

[DustyMoment]

If someone is not fire, there is serious corruption in Ohio.

That's the problem. NO ONE will be fired, this is the status of politics in America today. Clinton really broke the door down by using the IRS to investigate gis "enemies" - now it's become a common practice among those who claim the represent "the little guy" or "working Americans".

[OldYank1]

Rest assured, there is serious corruption in Ohio. No one will be fired.

[Carley]

A felony.

Let’s see if there is anything more than a slap on the wrist.

[kezzek]

Couldn’t Joe the Plumber go after these people for invasion of privacy?

[SlowBoat407]

Just standard operating procedure.

Under Obama, it will be.

[SueRae]

Let’s let her face the news cameras and answer for herself...or is that racist too? (she is black) I have had it with these underhanded stunts. If I was Joe, I’d consult a lawyer. For starters.

[mewzilla]

Shades of Tricky Dicky.

Note to the 'Rats: You've become what you profess to hate. Way to go.

[meyer]

Rest assured, there is serious corruption in Ohio. No one will be fired.

If the previous Republican governor Taft hadn't been such a pansy-RINO, he would have cleaned out some of this stuff. And he would still have a job. Bottom line is the government in Ohio needed cleaning out (just like the federal government) and it didn't get done (also just like the federal government).

And now, with a democRAT in the governor's chair, there's slim chance that anything will be done about the corruption. Ohio is following Michigan's path straight down the toilet.

[Salamander]

“Just standard operating procedure.”

As it will soon be for any of us who dares question The Fuerher’s absolute infallibility.

As Rush says, never trust a woman with a hyphenated last name.

[tobyhill]

But according to the Drive-by media, being a racist only applies to anyone not supporting Obama. This criminal is a part of Obama’s socialist agenda and I guarantee this lady will be at least one of his advisers.

[TheRake]

Maybe we need a legal defense fund for Joe.

[TNCMAXQ]

Utterly scary. This kind of thing should send a chill down the spine of all freedom loving people. But the “news” media will not play it up. We’ll see how people like it once the great savior is in power and all their personal privacies are lost.

Delphi worker data is missing - Information from 2,600 former Dayton-area employees removed from unattended laptop.
Dayton Daily News (OH) - Saturday, August 2, 2008
Author: William Hershey Staff Writer

COLUMBUS — A flash drive containing the Social Security numbers and other personal information from 2,600 Dayton-area former Delphi workers was removed from the laptop of a state employee that was left unattended and and is now missing.

Helen Jones-Kelley , director of the Job and Family Services department, said on Friday, Aug. 1, that letters have been sent to all those affected. The incident occurred on July 25 in Lebanon, Jones-Kelley said.

The drive included the names, addresses, telephone numbers as well as the Social Security numbers of the workers. Their names were on the drive because of their involvement in a benefits rights training program for workers who might qualify for federal trade adjustment assistance.

(snip)

The incident occurred despite efforts by state officials to improve security after a backup computer tape was stolen from a state intern’s car last year. The tape included sensitive personal information from more than a million individuals, businesses and entities such as local governments.

And a BTW on Jones-Kelly from 2007...

Porker of the Week: Department of Job & Family Services

Last week, ODJFS Director Helen Jones-Kelly asked the Ohio Senate Finance and Financial Institutions Committee to allow families earning 300 percent of the poverty level to buy into the state's Medicaid program.

Snort.

[mewzilla]

Whoa.

Maybe that theft wasn't about credit card fraud or credit-related identity theft.

Maybe it was about voter fraud.

[PubliusMM]

Clearly, there are unanswered questions in this issue. This article doesn’t provide any information apart from the denial of political motivation. So...why DID she authorize the check? Are we to assume that if we make a statement, or query a leftwing DhimmiRat candidate, over policy and plans that we will be subjected to review by bureaucracies that may or may not have anything to do with us?

Chilling implications in this one...

[tobyhill]

“Oh, We Always Do That”

I'm sure they do and I would bet they target mostly white people too.

[mewzilla]

They'll target anyone who crosses them, regardless of party or race.

The scope of this makes Nixon look like a piker.

[lacrew]

That’s nothing. I hear Palin chose paper over plastic at a grocery store (that’s racist code).

[mewzilla]

The scope of this makes Nixon look like a piker.

Bubba, too, and that's saying something.

[madinmadtown]

Nixon followed LBJ and he was a piker next to LBJ as well. I remember how outraged the Dems were when they found out that Nixon taped conversations in the oval office, but he was not the one who had recorder installed. When the LBJ tapes came out there was nary a peep from the same people who were outraged by the existence of the tape recordings by Nixon, When the LBJ tapes became public, they were precious glimpses into historical legacy.

[yldstrk]

no not at all political.

[gunnedah]

FBI & CIA Cannot Compare Notes on Terrorist

But all government can go after “Joe The Plumber” for questioning Barrack Hussein Obama.
Zeig Heil Amerika!

[mewzilla]

True, but I don't have a prob with a WH bugging itself.

I do have a prob with pols bugging/investiging private citizens with politcal payback as the motive.

[tobyhill]

Joe is soon to be Joe The Extremely Rich Plumber if he'll get a lawyer and sue the hell out of this criminal.

[silverleaf]

we have a name

[badpacifist]

America the socialist .....land of government without consequences

NBC 4 Investigates Stolen State-Owned Computers

Wednesday, May 14, 2008 - 10:09 AM Updated: 12:04 PM

EXCERPT

The problem isn’t new. It’s just getting worse.

Four months before the now-infamous state intern vehicle break-in, Target 4 questioned what the state was doing to protect state-owned equipment and data.

At the time, the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services led state agencies in computer-related thefts.

In the course of three years, the agency had lost a total of nine laptops, three desktops, a tablet PC and a hard drive – one device contained Medicaid information on 20 people.

“As long as we continue to lose them, then I think we need to look at methods to improve the deterrence,” said Robert Ferguson, Deputy Director of the ODJFS Office of Chief Inspector.

Fifteen months later, NBC 4 came back to find ODJFS has lost five more laptops, a desktop and a flash drive. Two thefts took place inside employees’ cars. One laptop was stolen in a home burglary.

[MrB]

We’re seeing some glimpses of things to come for those that speak out against the coming fascist tyranny.

[mewzilla]

Wow. Maybe my tinfoil chapeau’s on too tight, but these data thefts are really making me wonder now about another motive...

[mlocher]

Amid questions from the media and others about “Joe the Plumber,” Jones-Kelley said she approved a check to determine if he was current on any ordered child-support payments.

More Kudos to Joe. Joe in fact was current on child support. He clearly is a stand up guy who owns up to his responsibilities. I guess the MSM forgot about that part too. And Jones-Kelley is a phoney.

[MrB]

“You’ve become what you profess to hate”

Read “Road to Serfdom”. This is INVARIABLY what ALWAYS happens when collectivism starts to be implemented. Tyranny is unavoidable.

[mewzilla]

Read “Road to Serfdom”.

I have. Hayek was right.

[Travis McGee]

Welcome to the USSA, comrade. Keep your head down, and never question authority.

[GnuHere]

Wonder if he will mention this when he is campaigning?

[bitterohiogunclinger]

It's apparently only illegal to look-up Democrats. I remember earlier this year someone being fired for looking up tax information using IRS computers, but I can't remember who it was. In any event, if this P.O.S. and her subordinates looked up Joe the Plumber without cause, they should be fired. If they gave information to any outside source, they should be prosecuted.

[comps4spice]

Were the political parties reversed, the perp would be hounded out of office. As it is, she will be given a promotion in the coming Obama Socialist Worker’s Paradise.

[HD1200]

Joe needs to SUE every Government employee that accessed his personal records!

SUE THEM JOE! SUE THEM FOR DAMAGES!

[mewzilla]

Two Fired for Viewing Obama Passport File

Some animals are more equal than others.

[Lets Be Frank]

She states an example of a lottery winner that they checked. Umm..did Joe all of a sudden come into a lot of money when he asked that question? This is such bs. If she doesn’t get fired I throw up my hands on all things political.

[madinmadtown]

Part of the point that I was trying to make was that there has been a double standard of behavior for the two political parties for a long time in regards to the issue of privacy. I don't have a problem with the WH being taped either, but I do have a problem with the Dems finding it offensive and outrageous when it was Nixon, when they had been doing the same thing for years.
Because the members of the GOP for years have found jobs outside of the government to be ideologically preferable to being a government employee, our bureaucracy is filled with Democrats. It is a basic difference in the basic outlook of of a Dem versus a GOP. So, unfortunately, we have a system that is always stacked against us if there is a way to use the bureaucracy to invade our privacy.

[mewzilla]

I don't have a problem with the WH being taped either, but I do have a problem with the Dems finding it offensive and outrageous when it was Nixon, when they had been doing the same thing for years.

They didn't just find it outrageous and offensive. They found it illegal. Which it was then and still is now.

I agree with your point on the double standard thing, though.

I'd've thought that's why we have law enforcement. To take the politics out it.

Note to law enforcement: Silly me :(

[weegee]

No.

Invasion of privacy is a 13-year old seeking and paying for an abortion, no questions asked.

Invasion of privacy is harassing 2 homosexuals engaging in sexual activity in a city park restroom.

[mewzilla]

Or checking out Obama’s passport files...
