ED RENDELL IS A DOPE
Philadelphia Magazine ^ | 30 March 2010 | Chris Freind

The idiocy of some people never ceases to amaze.

For the latest example, just look how the political hacks reacted to the recent week of Pennsylvania Attorney General Tom Corbett. First, Corbett’s office was successful in prosecuting former state representative Mike Veon and two others in the Bonusgate scandal, bringing the total number of felony convictions in that corruption investigation to 10. Veon and his cronies were convicted on numerous charges related to using taxpayer money for political campaigns.

Taxpayer money is, in fact, the people’s hard-earned cash that is sent to Harrisburg for the purposes of good government. Using it for anything else, especially campaign activities, is an atrocious breach of the public’s trust.

So sending someone like Veon away with a case of Soap-on-a-Rope should be considered a good thing by all sane and rational Pennsylvanians. Score one for the good guys — us.

Later in the week, Corbett sued the federal government over the passage of health care legislation.

He didn’t do this as a partisan Republican, attacking a Democratic health care bill.

No, his decision was rooted in something much more basic: his belief that it is unconstitutional for the federal government to usurp the rights of the state and force citizens to purchase health care — or risk fines and jail.

Wow. Call me crazy, but isn’t that what a state Attorney General is supposed to do — protect the citizens of his state from criminals and unconstitutional laws?

Not to mention a thug of the lowest order. A white collar mafioso in my opinion.

All democrats are proving themselves to be dopes. Anyone who continues to stand with this so-called president is finished in politics when this administration comes crashing down as the most corrupt in history.

My wife and I heard him on his first campaign say something to the following: "... the governor of Phil-, I mean, Pennsylvania..."

I figured we were hosed the minute he took office.

I hope Fast Eddie will retire with ugliness, soon. His appearance on Comcast Sportsnet after Eagles games makes me want to puke. He has as much business on that set as I do.

Like all lefties, his motto is “Let me tell you how to think”

Eddie may wind up in prison after the dust settles. Popcorn time!
