   I was surprised that there WAS a corruption sting in NJ.

   With regards to Carrion’s appointment as urban czar … keep shining the light on the cockroaches as they do not like it when you do that.

   …why do NJ corruptocrats go down while pay-for-play pol Adolfo Carrion Jr. (involved in very similar favor-trading with developers in the Bronx) gets promoted to urban czar?

   Just a guess, but maybe it’s easier to indict a ham sandwich than it is to indict a liberal, minority politician who can “show you the money.”

   My question is — and gee, maybe someone in Washington might think to ask President Obama — why did NJ corruptocrats go down while pay-for-play pol Adolfo Carrion Jr. (involved in very similar favor-trading with developers in the Bronx) gets promoted to urban czar?

   A favor to the New Jersey Mob, from the Chicago “families”.

   Perhaps it was just a Party Purge–shake them up a bit in the lower ranks-terror for the sake of terror. Uncle Joe Stalin-hero to all Progressives-set the standard to which all Liberal/Progressive/Fascists strive.

   Then again perhaps the NJ corruptocrats had cut the Obaminites out of the action. Good grief good people how can BitterMoma pay for her expensive handbags and shoes if the riff raff don’t pay the street tax?

   Vito Corleone-Adolfo Carrion: the GodFathers 1972 to 2009. Now if he can mumble as does Marlon Brando..he can make an offer we can’t refuse

    But you know that none of it matters to the MSM or any other true believer in the Democrat Party and their lord and savior, THE ONE (and only–THANK GOD), Barack H. Obama. A liberal Democrat could be feeding on the entrails of aborted babies and be the biggest slum lord on the planet, but so long as that “[D]” is at the end of their name, it’s hunky-dory with them. Just so long as they’re holding a seat that will maintain Democrat dominance within the government structure, they can do anything they want.

    Why yes we do, The US Department of Housing and Urban Development.

    When is some US Senator going to challenge Obama on his unconstitutional practice of appointing “czars” to replace pre-existing Cabinet level positions that require Senate confirmation?

    He’s Hispanic-American. He supports the Obama four year “grab ‘n git” self-enrichment program. He’s avoided jail for corruption, so he MUST be smart. And he’s not black, so he is discardable.

    His name is synonymous with roadkill, so he is a perfect choice for throwing under the bus.

    That’s the beauty of naming Czars for everything…deflection, distraction, and they are great patsies for the blame game. “Uh, uh, um, it….wasn’t me!”

    Another thing to make me physically ill. I’m starting to realize something…the suspicious deaths in the Clinton administration are probably suspicious for a good reason. I never could bring myself to believe people are actually murdered by crooked thug politicians. It was just too “conspiracy wacko” for me. I now know better. These people will stop at nothing and that is quickly being verified. So far, they are “merely” resorting to reputation smears, stifling freedoms, strong-arming, tax audits, threats, and snooping into citizen’s private information. They will be ratcheting up their program any day now. We are truly being “ruled” by the mob. Can we ever get rid of them? It is starting to look like an honest election will be very very difficult.

    When I first read the title of the article, i thought for some reason it said “immolate” and not “emulate”. Gave me a slight chuckle, in spite of myself, for a moment.

    Michelle,

    I just viewed the clip again and it occurred to me that there is one killer response that might have squelched the endless “Didn’t Bush do that too?” inanities once and for all.

    “Sure, Team Bush did also had cronies and he started the “stimulus” nonsense too, both of which I was very vocal in criticizing at the time. But arguing that the house was already on fire to justify Obama’s throwing gasoline into it is utter nonsense. All you are arguing about is who has the right to be the criminal. There shouldn’t be a crime in the first place.”

    I’m sure you could use your talents to reduce that to a more manageably compact statement. It would kill, Michelle, KILL!
