“You better be careful what you say / It never really added up anyway …”

Here is a map of states with mandatory E-Verify laws on employers:

You’ll notice some states are tougher than others; some include more employers. Some include all employers. Some restrict the mandate to employers with certain numbers of employees. South Carolina has a tough law.

I hope this site makes that an automatic link above, since I didn’t take the time to make it one.

Hi, Bill.

I didn’t write the IA story with the over-the-top name dropping, and I didn’t write that IA felt they needed to get in front of this story for some (unknown) reason. And I didn’t connect his recusal from his law client with the Westmoreland call. You did.

Y’all seem as nervous as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.

To the Westmoreland call question, I am fairly certain as to why he made the call, but because I do not wish to get Matt in potential trouble with his employer, I am not going to discuss why.

To your last question, Matt realized after-the-fact that he could be putting his other business in huge jeopardy (i.e., Insider Advantage and his polling company) to remain as the lead lawyer involved in his client’s case in which Oxendine’s insurance commissioner’s office was involved with. Matt is a pollster and is running the polls for governor and every other big race. To remain involved between Ox and Nathan Deal would not look good. So, he recused himself.

Now, I know this won’t satisfy you or Harper or any other number of nobodies in the world, but the simple fact is this: You (and Charlie Harper and others) don’t (or, can’t, apparently) accomplish enough in your own lives. So to make-up for that, you seek to screw around and poke your nose into other people’s lives to bring them down to your level.

Why would IA care whether the AJC reports the story first? Is there some negative aspect of the injury story that needed to be spun? The IA story certainly doesn’t address the bizarre phone call to Westmoreland at all, so that can’t be it.

And now a new mystery: Why in the world would Towery feel he needed to dump the client he was representing when he made the call to Westmoreland? What does one have to do with the other?

Curiouser and curiouser.
