(For anyone who does not know: I am a nevermo.)

My question: Does the "J Reuben Clark," who is central to Steve Benson's current thread on RfM, have anything to do with this:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215650875

Note the third paragraph, where "J Reuben Clark" is being used as a username.

This is either a bizarre and almost unbelievable coincidence, or there is, somehow, something Mormon about this exact name coming up in the reported context.

The Alaska asst. AG in question is a graduate of BYU's J. Reuben Clark law school.

I don't think his user name is just a coincidence.

As an aside - compare the SLT and DN articles and see how DN tries to soft pedal things.

Not only is the Alaska Assistant AG in question a mormon grad of BYU Law —

<drum roll>

so is his boss, the Alaska Attorney General by the name of Treg Taylor (yeah, Treg; sounds like something Mitt would named a kid)

Let's see, he's a mormon, his boss is a mormon; both grads of Clark Law; mormons protect their own except in times of bad publicity. Chances are good nothing happens to him.
