Another GOP Fall Guy ...

Again... sickening... (4.00 / 1)

But we should have the best of both worlds here in NJ. If Christie won't do anything about this, we should certainly expect Milgram to, right? Where's Anne?!?!?

Apparently, there's underage drinking going on. Go get 'em Anne!

Look at reality (0.00 / 0)

Between the State A.G.'s office and the U.S. Attorney's office, it is very likely that some of this Republican corruption is being looked at. These investigations are done well in advance of public pronouncements of indictments and such. None of us know exactly who or what is being looked at and that is as it should be to maintain the integrity of the investigation. You don't get to be 125-0 by performing your job in a sloppy manner.

Nevertheless, I regret to point out that it is primarily Democratic powerbrokers who have their hands on all the major levers of power in the State at this time.

For policy formulation, legislation and for ideological correctness, that is a very good thing. Most Democratic public policies are better than most Republican policies. Most Democratic legislation speaks to the needs of the majority of the people who have the least power. Most Republican laws do not.

But when the party in power have their hands on all the major levers of institutional power in the State, you know what happens next. "Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely". That goes for Republicans as well as Democrats.

It's a handful for Chris Christie (125-0) to keep up with all the corruption being manifested by the leaders who have their fingers in so many pies. Democrats rule so Democrats have the opportunity to play in the sandbox of corruption.

Don't be so quick to dismiss the conviction of Joseph Lucas in Somerset. A conviction is a conviction. If they hadn't convicted anyone at all from Somerset, I am sure someone would be saying that "they should have convicted somebody!". Well, they did. And that's good news.

And where is Anne Milgram and her team from the State Attorney General's office? I am still giving her the benefit of the doubt. But how long will it take for them to dig into the "Soprano State" of corruption?
