NJ Democrats arrested for taking bribes This is what politics looks like in NJ: FBI agents arrested 11 public officials in towns across New Jersey Thursday on charges of taking bribes in exchange for influencing the awarding of public contracts, the U.S. Attorney's Office said. Two of those arrested are state lawmakers, two are mayors, three are city councilmen, and several served on the school board in Pleasantville, where the scandal began. All 11, plus a private individual, are accused of taking cash payments of $1,500 to $17,500 to influence who received public contracts, according to criminal complaints.

Sad he committed suicide... but another Christian Right Republican that's a sicko. I'm starting to wonder which is cause and which is effect. Scandal and suicide on St. Pete City Council As police investigate allegations of sexual abuse, St. Petersburg City Council Chairman John Bryan kills himself. By ABHI RAGHUNATHAN, AARON SHAROCKMAN and CHRIS TISCH Published September 8, 2007 I think its their thinking that causes them to become extremists in their positions. And I don't think it starts with them........his family probably has a history of sexual dysfunction. I think you either try to get well, or you become a Christian hardliner like this guy and Craig. These guys end up causing so much pain for so many other people because of their sick thinking. Ironically, they are the very reflection of the religious hardliners in Iran. Familiarity breeds contempt?
