SACRAMENTO - The lawmaker leading the investigation into the Oracle software controversy has been accused of being overzealous and abandoning political allies to advance his career.

But Assemblyman Dean Florez's maverick style was shaped before he launched his legislative hearings this spring.

This guy must come from a pretty safe district to be taking the stands he is. So one must conclude he definitely is using these inquiries as a springboard for publicity and higher office. Though I must say I agree with what he's doing.

Then again, he eventuallly backed off his Chavez holiday position, sooooo.....think I'll just fall back on my unshakeable position of never trusting a Democrat in anything.

When do Rat Politicians lie?

When their lips move and their wallets need re-filling.
