"In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria." --- Benjamin Franklin
Question raised: What's up with a state rep doing open records requests for a blogger? A legislator can make requests via legislative counsel. Documents are then delivered speedily and at no cost. Anyone else but a legislator has to pay reasonable costs of retrieval and copying. Doing such favors, at public expense, is an abuse of legislative privilege. Should be dealt with by house leadership. Which may be the problem.

If you get specific enough usually should be free, it's when they get to big they will start to cost. Obviously legislators have the ability to pass these costs on to the tax payers like you said. Guessing these searches didn't take long as it was recent and a fairly limited time period.
Okay, please give me the summary of any impact this petition is making in the cold white north:
1. Stories on KVRR at 6 and 9
Anything else? And did KVRR ask the Forum to comment on why they ran Portly Blob's story without giving the President a chance share his side of the story?
Further, someone needs to get KVLY to run with this. They love sensational stuff, and what a chance to stick it to a competitor. It make me smile thinking about the Forum saying "no comment" to hard questions that are laid out.

I assume we are talking about Rosco here................
Ok, but why did he give the emails to Port. It seems to me a reputably legislature might pull someones email's so they could discern if they lied. Ok that seems reasonable. But what RS did after is not reasonable or in my mind ethical. One would think if RS found deceit, he would then take action through the legislation means available to him as a legislature. However, that is not what RS did. Instead, RS looked to see of DB lied and instead of taking action through the legislative process he sent the emails to a ANTI NDSU blogger so he could dig through them and use them to substantiate the blobbers agenda. I assume this action was done because there was nothing in the emails to act on.

He did give him a chance to share his side of the story and his office declined comment, referring them to one of press releases. He had has chance and declined to take the offer.
Asked Friday night for comment from Bresciani on whether the texts show he initially supported the rules, NDSU spokeswoman Sadie Rudolph provided this statement:
“If you refer back to the statement we released on Tuesday, it does indicate that President Bresciani was disappointed when he learned the facts surrounding the issue. His opinion did evolve and so our statement from Tuesday does address your question.”
