Jimbo Eruptions

It's a full-blown political feud, with one corrupt politician chastising another:

Krolicki on Saturday defended the 10-day trip he took in June with 14 Nevada business leaders, saying no taxpayer dollars were involved.

“My work ethic couldn’t have been any stronger,” he told The Associated Press. “It was a trip filled with work, but certainly there was an opportunity to grab a present for a child or look at Chinese architecture. You’re going to do a little of that as well.”

Krolicki declined to provide a copy of the trip itinerary.

Krolicki, who’s considering a 2010 race against Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., said he was dismayed by the governor’s criticism of him.

“I don’t want to follow the governor downward in this conversation,” he said. “I don’t find it productive.”

In a statement issued Saturday, the tourism commission said the business leaders paid their own way and their companies were assessed a fee that paid Krolicki’s expenses in exchange for obtaining access to Chinese officials at commission-arranged meetings.
