Bill Ceverha Responds To Rep. Lon Burnam’s Call For His Removal

Another chapter in the Bill Ceverha saga unfoled yesterday, as State Rep. Lon Burnam released a disjointed and rambling letter from the former state rep, Texans for a Republican Majority treasurer and lobbyist who sits on the board of the Employee Retirement System of Texas.
Burnam has previously called for Ceverha’s resignation as a result of Ceverha’s significant conflicts of interest.
Here’s what Burnam had to say about the letter:
“In an extremely odd letter to me, Mr. Ceverha blamed me for failing to bring about world peace, among other ridiculous accusations. Texas does not need a person who exhibits that kind of judgment serving as a fiduciary for a $20 billion state fund.”
…
“It is obvious from this letter that Ceverha isn’t even cognizant of the issues I am trying to address here. He is so ethically challenged, he doesn’t see how working as a lobbyist and serving on a Board which has millions of dollars invested in companies he represents is a conflict of interest.”
The letter is here (page 1 page 2) for your perusal. After you read it, if you don’t come to the conclusion that this guy is among the nuttiest of the wingnuts, then read it again.
