Random Quote: The 2 best days of a boat owner is, day #1 you get your boat, day #2 you sell it!
Rodney King made famous the quote, "Can't we all just get along?"
I'd like to put forth, "Can't we all just NOT cheat?" Cheat the public trust?
The more I think about things that have been going on, when we wipe everything down to the base and get to the bottom, is not the basic human trait that seems to be lacking with all these "Crisis'" not honesty? At the most basic human level of education, are parents not doing the job? Is it the schools and the teachers? College? Where in the pipeline of human interaction is the flaw of believing that 'I will NOT cheat, steal or lie' get lost with all these individuals doing what they are doing to the rest of us? that is causing all the problems with what was/is the biggest problem that the "polled" voters voted on, the economy?
First Dianne Wilkerson, now Chuck Taylor. Who is next? Would we have any sympathy at all or at least honor if those next up on the list to be shown photographed taking bribes just comes forward and says, "Yes, I took money and I'm sorry.", to save him or herself the embarrassment and shame from having their pictures in the papers/TV/Internet for all to see? How humiliating. Makes me realize that I will NEVER be one of those people. That is, unless the Anarchy comes and it is survival of the fittest, then all bets are off.
I can't believe its over yet, there probably will be more. Gonna be interesting to see who turns next. Apparently Mr. Turner threw it all away for the grand total of $1,000.00.
DiMasi is next up or at least in line!!!!
Wilkerson is looking at 20 yrs so I'm sure that she has a list Hopefully it involves every branch of government so we can finally get a clean slate in this pathetic state
Another brother being beat down by the man. How long before he has a news conference surrounded by his men of the cloth, blaming it on the racist society?
Are you allowed to investigate and penalize two African American individuals in a row in this state........there's gotta be some rule against it somewhere
Cres, they already had his pastor on the news last night. Standing by Turner, said it could'nt be possible for only $1,000! As for Chuck, he said he is innocent and will be found not guilty when he is judged by a jury of his peers. Given one of his peers is Diane Wilkerson he may be right.
Do you notice that a significant amount of these crooked politicians and government appointed financial officials are Harvard and BC grads..or is it just me..
Mojo
I don't think he ever said he was innocent, He said he would not be convicted by a jury of his peers. I guess that depends who you consider your peers. What an arrogant scum bag
The other scumbag pols. will put together some kind of golden parchute for these two so thy don't drop the dime on the rest of them. Follow the$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I believe it's tomorrow at noon, on the steps of City Hall if I remember the news reports correctly, a rally it's being called, because he was set-up...

Soooo, let's see. I just noticed that "they", the people who currently run this state, re-named the Mass Maritime ship the "Kennedy's".
Now let's see......... this is being named for a group of people who have served the State of Massachusetts in various capacities and have continued to embarrass the good citizens of this state over and over again during the past 50 years.
Drunken bingeses(sp), murder(got off without any legal implications), rape, sleeping with every woman available, need I go on ????
What a disrespect to the citizens of this state that pay taxes, to pay for the salaries of these rich inconsiderate people of ill-be-gotten means. It is an absolute shame that these people continue to be recognized in this current state of economic circumstances that they have helped to contribute to !!
The rich keep getting richer and the poor..... you fill in the rest !!!!!
How many of them have been killed off at this point ? I've lost track, but not enough is the correct answer !!!!!!!!
