Dann should go, but not because of sex

Attorney General Marc Dann should resign or be impeached, but not because he cheated on his wife.

During 2007 and early 2008, Attorney General Dann flew on the state's Beechcraft King Air 90 twin-engine airplane at least 13 times. Many of the flights shuttled the attorney general to in-state events. Former Attorney General Jim Petro never used it. These flights cost taxpayers nearly $25,000. And this was from several months ago. It is unlikely he stopped abusing the use of that plane.

Dann also sees no problem with the state determining how much profit oil companies should make and is willing to sue those companies if he thinks they make too much money. Who is he to make that determination? And is it only oil companies or any company he thinks is making too much money? He is striving to make the state more anti-business than it already is and his clampdown on lenders who he thinks are predatory is just another attack on business.

A man of integrity would resign after the sex scandal. Clearly, Dann has demonstrated he is not a man of integrity and he is not about to leave the his cushy government job.
