So we know this is actually the post from yesterday, but we just discovered 30DOJ today. And this mortician-ish gentleman to your left is one Timothy Conley of Louisiana MO, who apparently has grave cause to hate Jay Nixon. Surely Jay must have wronged him in some deep, irreparable manner or levied some dastardly insult to the Conley clan.
