Matt Entenza

[question everything]

Is hosting a meeting Wednesday, April 13 from 7:30 am to 8:30 am at the Byerly's meeting room on Ridgedale Drive in Minnetonka.

"A community discussion about our future"

Can any one tell me about Entenza?

1. "Minnesota's Watchdog"

According to his website:

2. Entenza's a liar and a snake

He's the epitome of what's wrong with politics and should be flushed out of the DFL. He's a multimillionaire, power-hungry, major-league asshole. He's untrustworthy. He'd sell his soul to become Speaker. Some say he already has.

Any more questions?

[question everything]

3. Thank you. This is what I needed to know

By the way, this meeting is:

"with local leaders for a spirited conversation about access to affordable healthcare, schools, job growth, transportation and our families."

[Krupskaya]

4. Entenza's been having those meetings all over the state.

5. Isn't his wife some kind of wheel at

UnitedHealth Group? That would leave me to doubt his commitment to affordable health care.

6. Entenza's wife multimillionaire exec at UnitedHealth

Lois Quam is Entenza's wife and has been the subject of several fawning articles since being identified as one of the 50 "most powerful" something or others in the country. She's head of the group at UnitedHealth that handles seniors' and AARP business and has raked in at least $8 million in stock options alone in the past four years or so.

Don't look for any action out of AG Hatch or the DFL with regard to excessive compensation for health care executives as long as Entenza is hanging around. Quam is the source of the big bucks that Entenza has been spreading around the DFL and other groups lately.

Minnesota's Watchdog? Yeah, right.

7. I think Hatch would love to get his hands on UHG

I base this opinion partly on a brief conversation I once I had with him and how he went after Medica and Alina? There isn't much he can do about United because it is for profit and can't sell it's HMO products in Minnesota.
