Gov. Jim Gibbons record of appointments is pretty dismal. He kicks the only McCarran International Airport rep off the state’s Homeland Security commission, but appoints the lawyer for a bankrupt subprime lender to oversee mortgages in Nevada. We once joked that he’d probably put Dr. Jack Kevorkian on the state’s Commission on Aging, but now we wonder if that’s so much of a joke.
Why? We’ll let fellow bloggers (and newsbreakers) Myrna the Minx and Hugh Jackson tell you all about how education activist Joe Enge got himself appointed … wait for it, wait for it … deputy director of the Nevada State Office of Energy.
You read that right: Energy. Not education.
It would be funny if it was a sitcom, but none of us actually wanted to live under the governor from that one show Benson.
