This is about what I would expect from a former state legislator. You have to admire the Beshear administration for being consistent. Even if that consistency is how totally clueless they are about public perception.
E-mail messages obtained by a newspaper show Kentucky Education Commissioner Jon Draud approved the purchase of a new state car for his own use with $13,000 in extra options.
If Steve Beshear wanted to get some public relations points he would take this little perk away from the temporary help like Draud. Make them drive their own car and pay them mileage. This is cheaper than the state buying tweaked out pseudo sports cars.

One other question, how are they going to get the state seal over that piece of trim on the doors?
