David Williams To Get Pink Slip From Tea Party?

Kentucky Senate Adjorns Early: Restarts in a Special Session
There is a Mess in Frankfort. Now it gets even clearer for many Kentuckians. It appears Senate President David Williams has Proven himself unfit to be Governor of the people in Kentucky. A citizen of Kentucky filed a Petition to Remove a public Official (Family Judge) from Office. It was read into the record January 4th 2011 and assigned to committee. All requests for hearing were ignored, and the petitioner was given the run around. The session ended early and the petition denied any due process.

Questions to determine why the petitioner was being deprived of the right revealed answers from the Senate Judiciary Chairman just before the session was ended early; they had been given orders by "Senate Leadership." The Petition for Removal filed by a citizen of Kentucky would get "No Due Process.

Word from an inside source in Franfort close to Williams office said Williams dreamed up the call for the early end to the session as a way to get the media off his senate doorstep with questons on the petition, and why he had ordered it denied without process.

This wasn't a petition filed by some disgruntled individual for no reason. It was well supported by the evidence and had been reviewed by a petit group of credible individuals from the community. A law librarian, A Kentucky Colonel, A WW2 Veteran, a mother, and a businessman, who all signed affidavits finding resonable cause for removal of the family court judge from office, because the conduct commission had grossly neglected to act. In addition, 40 other petitions were filed by individual citizens from various parts of the state, in support of their right to the process, and for Senate President Williams to "give it due process." 

Word has gotten around now through Tea Party groups regarding Williams deed, and they are now saying it makes him unfit to be governor by demonstrating a flagrant disregard for the rights of all Kentuckians to the petitions and its processes. It's a duty of the body to provide and the subsequent cover up of public corruption lays squarely in David Williams lap. One Tea Partier, who ask to not be Identified, speculated where  Governor Bashear would stand on the issue. In a recent meeting of Tea Party types, talk was about giving Williams notice after the election by sending a box full of pink slips signed by people from his senate district, and backing a real Tea Party Conservative in his next senate district election.

Senate Judiciary Committee Continues to Stall on Petition for Removal by Address

Two requests have been made by motion, each filed with the Senate Clerk, to be heard by the Committee in a preliminary inquiry proceeding. Both requests to be heard have been arbitrarily denied by the Senate Judiciary Chairman who has failed to hold inquiry hearings upon the petition.
 
Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, Sen. Tom Jenson, met with the petitioner about 2 pm in the hall outside of Senate Chambers and said " I don't have any authority to give due process to the petition" and he defered to Senator David Williams as having said "their is no authority" for the Ky Senate to provide any process to the petitioner upon the petition filed for the propor purposes of removing the judge for acts of Official Misconduct.

Senate Judiciary Committee Stalls on Petition for Removal by Address

With the petition having been read into the Ky Senate floor record on January 4th 2010, plenty of orientation time has elapsed for the SJC to get it's bearings on setting up a proper process and moving forward, but that is hardly the case. The Petitioner filed a motion with the Senate Clerk on February 2 to be heard on 2-3 before the SJC right after the legislative business. The motion sought the creation of the "Senate Removal Committee, call for a response from the respondent, and to number the Petition as SA1.
On Thursday February 3rd Chariman of the SJC Jenson, denied calling the motion to order for discussion and vote. The appearance of 1st amendment violations has happened.


Senate president David Williams was also given a copy of the motion, personally delivered, and still no word.


A re-notice of hearing for the next committee meeting Feb 10 will be filed.
