Moonlighting Detective Agency.  What a wonderful name.  One wonders how the Flathead County Commissioners decided to hire them to investigate all the ongoing “malfeasance” in the county planning office which they are supposed to supervise themselves.  It’s probably just a coincidence that Eisentraut moved to Kalispell in 1989, just a year after the Montenegrin thug currently using the name Captain Michael Hilton arrived in America.  Nevertheless, they both came to Montana from Los Angeles, one quite a while ago and one quite recently.  Is this familiar?  After all, we do have a lot of experience with immigrants from California here.  Surely there is no connection between Moonlighting Detective Agency and the so-called American Police Force… recently seen driving off into the sunset in their black Mercedes Benz SUVs…. although they do offer somewhat similar services.  AFP says its services are a bit broader.  They claim to provide security forces to the Department of Defense and to escort “convoys” in Iraq and Afghanistan, but they also offer husbands the opportunity to track their wives and, presumably,  vice versa if one thinks the other is cheating.  Who looks more ridiculous?  The public offficials in Hardin or the ones we have right here in Flathead County?

Speaking about public officials I suppose Hardin looks a lot like any other town underneath the covers. What are the 20 complaints / allegations

Since Ike thinks he got such a great education for the first $5000, perhaps he would like to reimburse - or at least THANK the taxpayers for that education.  If he didn’t have the knowledge to do the job, why did he take it and why did the county commissioners hire him?  Oh right….the “good ole boy” conspiracy, from earlier California days!

I have used moonlighting, and found it was a waste of my money, that’s what you get from attorenys who think they know every thing. and have you hirer them.am woundering if they know how to ask the right questions? or if they just do it to cover up what went on? that is what I believe what went on in my case is this on the job training? learn as you go?

I still don’t understand. The county attorney’s office, with lawyers who already know about zoning laws, found nothing illegal going on. The auditor’s office, with professionals who already know about government fiscal rules, found some policies that should be changed, but no malfeasance. Why, again, are taxpayers paying thousands for this private agency to learn on the job and “investigate?”

taxpayers are paying thousands because every time American Dream Montana and its sheep say “jump,” the commissioners say…

Mongo - that would be TWO of the three commissioners responding to the likes of ADM (and I don’t mean Archer Daniels Midland).
