Hey, compared with BushCo, the Richardson administration is an open book! I see Dems criticize there own quite often, but Repubs can only seem to criticize Dems. If something is wrong, it's wrong if it happens on either side of the aisle...
I agree that the legislative sessions should be televised and there is no real reason not to do it other than being motivated. While it may be true, as one of those old English fellows put it, that folks don't really want to see how either their laws or their sausages are made, it may be easier to stuff crap into the sausages (and laws) without some sort of consumer oversight.
Jerry Orniz y Pino has some thoughts on the governor's appointments to existing and created positions in this week's Alibi. Here's the link:

Joe Monahan (www.joemonahan.com)says in today's (3/9/06) post:
"Wouldn't it be great if you could catch your NM Legislature in action in the wee hours of the closing moments of a session? No? You mean you have a life? OK. But for insatiable political junkies there appears to be hope. While Big Bill Wednesday vetoed a measure putting up $75,000 so we could see our glamorous lawmakers Webcast live on the Internet, his office reports there is another 75 grand in the capital outlay budget for Webcasting that he did not veto. Why there is two versions is a story for another time, but now we are watching to see if the money is actually used to provide the Webcast or, as sometimes happens, simply stays on the books unspent."
