Hot Air is reporting that XM radio duo Quinn & Rosie have received information from an informant claiming that Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius was ordered to make disparaging statements about the government’s response to the recent deadly tornado there, and was even told to lie about key facts by none other than Howard Dean. They have a ton of information so get over there, but if you’re in a hurry, here’s the take away quote from an e-mail Quinn and Rosie sent to Hot Air:

Then Sebelius explained the path to her comments. After Brownback told her that he was very disappointed in her, She pleaded “You know me Sam, I wouldn’t have said it if I didn’t have to.” She declared “Howard (Dean) called me around 5 o’clock (in the morning) and told me not to ask The White House for any help or make any statements until I heard back. Dick (Durban?) called me an hour or 2 later and that’s when he told me we needed to use this ‘n’ said to talk about the Guard all bein’ at war.”

Like I said, they’ve got the goods, so go! It sounds too good a scandal to be true, but it doesn’t strike me as being beneath Dean.
