Nah nah nah nah, hey hey hey, gooood bye!!!His claims to the contrary notwithstanding, e-mail traffic between Del. Phillip Hamilton and Old Dominion University makes clear that he expected to be hired by a new teacher training center at ODU when he sponsored the center’s startup funding.
In releasing the e-mails, which had been requested by The Virginian-Pilot under the state Freedom of Information Act, ODU President John Broderick said Thursday that the university has severed its relationship with Hamilton and shaken up the leadership of the center.

In an interview with The Pilot in July, Hamilton said he had no discussions with ODU officials about possible employment with the center before he introduced the budget amendment.
However, in a Dec. 21, 2006, e-mail to then-ODU President Roseann Runte, Hamilton wrote that he had initiated preparation of the budget amendment and reminded Runte that “when we talked about the Center last August, I expressed an interest in being associated with the initiative from a professional perspective.”
Phil Hamilton is a liar. And for that, he's fired.
Go Robin Abbott!!!
