On December 16, 2007, Marv Adams published a column called "Get caught in our Web", in which he asserts that LNP "broke the news" last Sunday that Senator Gib Armstrong planned to retire in 2008.
Well, duh. On Saturday, Gib was announcing to staff and supporters of his decision.
And it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that Gib Armstrong has reached retirement age. Just look at when he graduated college - 1965! That's over 40 years ago. Consider that he graduated college around age 23, that would be 63 years old! Actually, a quick search of Intelius reveals that Senator Gib is 64.
According to the State Employee Retirement Code, "Normal retirement age for most members is age 60 or the age at which the member attains 35 years of credited service, whichever occurs first."
Wow - simply amazing that LNP was able to report this astounding to news, isn't it?
