Screw You, You're Only the Governor

The Council on Postsecondary Education stuck their thumb in the eye of the Governor Steve Beshear today by first voting down the motion to conduct a nationwide search for President of the Council.

Then they followed by voting up a motion to hire Bradford Cowgill as President. Cowgill is the current interim President appointed by Governor Fletcher. Cowgill's interim status was to expire at the end of April.

I wonder if anyone will ever ask about Mr. Cowgill's request for 40 inch plasma TV or rearranging the floor plan of the offices such that meeting goers didn't have to witness the staff, and the staff couldn’t see who was coming to meetings.
