Note to Headline Writers: Adjective Order Is Important


“Former gay”? Did he come out of the closet and admit that since 1994 he’s been hiding his straightness from his gay friends? Did he have a press conference to announce this?

    What would the headline be for an article on Daniel Patterson now? “Former wife-beater beats his former girlfriend/campaign manager” The byline could be “She didn’t believe the story about him beating his wife, but now her own bruises are making her reconsider.”

    For anybody who wanted Bundgaard to be forced out of the Arizona Senate, when are they going to start calling for the removal of this total scumbag?

    Tyler-

    Wow…you managed quite a feat there: going after Paterson and blaming the victim. Congrats on that.

    As far as the people who called for Bundgaard to resign, I got a text shortly after you posted this from a Democratic member that was filing an ethics complaint. It must have been because you called for it.

    Tedski,

    Anything that I can do to help. I am glad that Democrats in the State Legislature are finally taking the criminal actions of this scumbag seriously.
