Tomlinson the late neo-con head of Corp for Public Broadcasting going down
The SS Neo-con is foundering and as the rats come out they are identified.

guess who has serious connections to Rove? Why his good friend Mr. Tomlison. Geez I wonder where his marching orders came from?

Well he is a neo-con that must mean he's doing somethng illegal.

Yep, the state department has him under investigation for the misuse of federal money and the use of phantom or unqualified employees.



"State Department investigators have seized records and e-mail from the Broadcasting Board of Governors, officials said. They have shared some material with the inspector general at the corporation, including e-mail traffic between Mr. Tomlinson and White House officials including Karl Rove, a senior adviser to President Bush and a close friend of Mr. Tomlinson."

3. Yes! The bastard made a crusade out of trying to eliminate
not only "liberal bias" in public broadcasting, but any liberal sentiment whatsoever.

4. I used to drive by his house all the time.
I should say, estate. The guy is rich as fuck. He lives in Middleburg, Virginia where all the Washington elite have their horse farms.
