Helen Jones-Kelly, the maxed out Barack Obama supporter who okayed the use of the state of Ohio’s computer system to did up dirt on Joe the Plumber, has been suspended from her job.

Helen Jones-Kelley, director of the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services and former head of that department in Montgomery County, has been placed on paid administrative leave by Gov. Ted Strickland.

Strickland said on Friday, Nov. 7, that he took the action “due to the possibility, as yet unconfirmed, that a state computer or state e-mail account was used to assist in political fund raising.”

“I have asked Inspector General Tom Charles to include this matter in his current, ongoing investigation,” Strickland said in a press release.

Strickland said he has asked Jan Allen, his cabinet secretary, to serve as acting director of the agency.

Charles already was investigating reports that a department computer was used to gather personal information about “Joe the Plumber” — Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher of suburban Toledo — after Wurzelbacher emerged as a key figure in the presidential race in Ohio. The information included whether he owed child support, which he said he didn’t.

He criticized Democrat Barack Obama’s tax plan and endorsed Republican John McCain.

This is probably all just a charade, and she’ll skate.  Either that or Obama will tap her for a cabinet position in his new administration.
