I love “Governor wants more middle managers in prison system”
I think we should put upper managers in prison too!

From the Giuliani article: “His secret weapon among Republicans is his utter fearlessness and devastating effectiveness in deconstructing liberal orthodoxy,” said the strategist, Wheaton’s Dan Curry.
Huh? I find myself agreeing with a lot of what Mr. Giuliani has to say and I consider myself a decent liberal. Maybe I’m just an unorthodox liberal?

> Egan endorses Vi Daley reelection

Hey C …
You may want to change the “Falwell” headline. It made me think of televangelists who are not yet in prison instead of incarcerated ex-politicos.

Ha, good call. It’s a just as a little wishful thinking on my part.

Prosecuters seek to reduce Falwell prison term by 6 months; helps feds with 5 cases
If this is true then the Feds have a one or a few pending investigations into State government that Fawell has recently assisted them with. To use Fawell as a witness of for information in the investigations mean that the illegal activity occurred while Fawell was an Aid to Governor Ryan.
Inquiring minds want to know…………….
