Fool, I posted that story about AMH in the football thread like a week ago.
(And I wish to God someone would leak that asshole's name...the press would have a field day with it.)
This whole bug issue is getting better and better. John Street was hanging out with Katie Couric this morning. Several Democratic officials are suggesting that the Feds are trying to steer PA towards Dubya in '04. Mayor Street himself says he's not a "target," but others say he could be a "subject" of an investigation.
As el sicómoro sees it:
--I'm not voting for Street next month. I don't think he's done enough for the city, that whole situation with the paramedics was awful, there's corruption around every corner, and we're further in the financial hole than I think we should be.
Unfortunately, I suspect the majority of the black community will vote for Street b/c he's black. And a majority of the white community will vote for Katz b/c he's white. Stoopid. And note, this is a city where registered Dems outnumber Reps 4 to 1 (last I heard).
My own woman is hesitant about voting for a Republican...she's almost ready to not vote. (Though in her case, it's merely the GOP/Dem factor, not the race factor.)
Still though, fuck that. I want the best person in there to do the job. In this case, I think that person is a Republican.
--It IS suspicious that the FBI immediately says, "Nope, this had nothing to do with the mayoral race." But the fucking moronic Dems immediately suggest that the Bush administration is trying to steal the show here. Stoopid...after all, we elected a Democrat for governor last year.
--People are clamoring for the truth to come out. Ummm...but what if that jeopardizes the case?
--My own suspicion is that it involves either the mayor's brother, the airport contracts situation, the parking tickets situation, or one of Street's associates. All equally good...too hard to pick just one.
Ah, I feel much better now.
