A few more questions for Mark Green

One Wisconsin Now has been asking Rep. Mark Green some pointed questions, which he has been carefully avoiding, as he tours the state trying to get elected governor without ever talking about anything substantive.

To the OWN list, which was at five questions and growing the last I saw, add these from the Capital Times, in an editorial about the decision of Green's crony, Rep. Bob Ney, to leave Congress because of his ties to convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Noting the close Green-Ney ties, and those of Green's campaign manager to Abramoff, the Cap Times ends by saying:

That leaves us with a few questions:

1. Will Green's House office cooperate with open records requests that would provide Wisconsin voters with information they need about whether the congressman or his aides did anything in return for favors from Abramoff?

2. Was Green one of the Republican Caucus members who gave that standing ovation to Ney as the Abramoff scandal was heating up?

3. Will Green now distance himself from his friend and political confederate Ney, or does he continue to stand by his man even as the Ohio congressman leaves politics in disgrace?
