He's moving to New Mexico? ;)
Lol, figured someone would jump on that the second I hit post.  Resignation effective Jan 30th.

I hope the Governor appoints someone friendly, someone like Papillion's mayor!

In politics, destroying an opponent's reputation is simply another way to attack his policies. A politician has to be perpetually on his guard about what he says and does. If he has anything in his background that could be dug up and used against him, he should stay out of politics entirely. Kintner paid the price for giving his enemies a way to get at him.

Ya can't have him...He's mine.

Not sure if he could represent Kitners district anyway. Probably lives in Smith's district.

Did Kitner introduce any bills for the NFOA? and if so, what happens to them?

And on a State issued computer.  2 questionable choices made in the last 2 years. Wonder if he has had a history of making bad choices?  Don't know the guy.

Kintner did introduce LB666 for us.

Speaker Scheer is working on redirecting Kintner's bills.  We have no confirmation yet, but this one could end up with Senator Lowe.

He liked to force votes so that senators had to go on record, which I appreciated.  But you can't be the guy rocking the boat and then just hand over fodder to your political enemies like that.  Hopefully the Governor appoints someone who can help out the NFOA.
The master has failed more than the beginner has even tried.

Granted what he did was not the smartest thing to put in writing, but I remember another senator saying he "wants to kill all of the police because they are my ISIS", but nothing happened to him.  If I remember correctly, the gov tweeted that wasn't a very nice statement. 

Threating our men and women in blue vs a stupid tweet? 

What am I missing?

Mayor is not in Kitner's district...  lives in Senator Smith's district.   

Kitner had a really small piece of Papillion.  He is more rural southern Sarpy, all of Cass plus Greenwood.
