First Lady Dawn Gibbons Occupies Nevada Governor’s Mansion
I know it’s par for the traditional gender roles course for the wife to occupy the home of past marital bliss, but in this case, when the home is Nevada’s governor’s mansion, shouldn’t the Governor Gibbons retain occupancy of the residence? This seems particularly true when it is the citizens of Nevada who are paying […]
Who Is A Buffoon?
From Inside Nevada Politics:
A day after blaming public hysteria on the media, Gov. Jim Gibbons has announced he will ask for the resignation of the three members of the Board of Medical Examiners who have connections with Dr. Dipak Desai, owner of the Endoscopy Center of Southern Nevada.

Did You Say The “New Democratic Majority” Wally Edge?
Okay, I’m a few days late on this, but a hipster tipster pointed out Wally Edge’s December 14th column (that would be Nevada’s Wally Edge as opposed to the New Jersey, Maine, Colorado, Vermont, Maryland, or Oregon Wally Edge). Isn’t the Nevada Wally Edge supposed to be a Nevada political insider? If so, […]
Raising College Tuition Is A Tax Increase
