Mayors and Rabbis and Crooks, Oh My!

"New Jersey's corruption problem is one of the worst, if not the worst, in the nation," said Ed Kahrer, who heads the FBI's white collar and public corruption investigation division. "Corruption is a cancer that is destroying the core values of this state." [More]
"Core values of the state..."

Good one!

Yeah, this is certainly representative of a government I'd want dictating what they trust us with--right? Although I can see why they'd want to.

I think this "cancer" IS the core value of NJ now. The actual moral values have been killed off there for years.

David,
Have you checked to see how many are Mayors against guns?

hey, the bright side is if they ever rally clean up New Jersey, you could cut the FBI's budget in half!!

Yeah, I think the deputy mayor and I already posted on his boss. Other cities weren't listed. Anyway, the results didn't pan out so I didn't mention it.

But you can bet all the mayors ARE against guns.

David,

"Gov. Jon Corzine said: "The scale of corruption we're seeing as this unfolds is simply outrageous and cannot be tolerated." "

So how much corruption is acceptable, Governmor?

Corzine's probably just pissed because he didn't get what he would have considered his fair share of the profits before the fbi's broke up the operation
