The arrogance of (Democrat) power
The American Thinker ^ | 05/23/07 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 05/23/2007 12:13:49 PM PDT by Enchante

Carole Migden is one of the most powerful people in California, and she knows it. The lesbian activist (author of the state's original domestic partners act, "married" in a faux ceremony conducted by SF mayor Gavin Newsom) is chair of the majority Democrat caucus in the State Senate, and has held a series of extremely powerful posts in a state government that spends $100 billion a year with little press scrutiny.

Last Friday, while driving her state-leased (members of the legislature get ample allowances for the vehicle of their choice on the state's dime) Toyota Highlander hybrid SUV, she was involved in an astonishing series of accidents caused by her reckless driving, and behaved very, very badly.

It is very difficult to believe that this ‘Rat bozo was not (1) seriously impaired while driving, (2) lying about being on state business (so that the state of CA would pick up all costs, and (3) anything but a lying ‘Rat fraud who should be pursued to the max by the media and legal system.

Could any ordinary person get away with what she just got away with? Any ordinary person would have been arrested on the scene (unless maybe they were an illegal alien or other ‘protected’ group such as a prominent ‘Rat state legislator).

This matter needs to be pushed hard to the media, not that they will want to look at one of their favorite ‘Rats.....

"She kept saying, 'You can't talk to me like that, I'm a state senator,"'

Imagine the fate of a Republican who said that.

“You can’t talk to me like that! I’m a state senator!”

Reminds me of John Kerry.

i seem to recall that several years ago some Congressman was speeding, went through a red light and killed some guy on a motorcycle.

Just shows the arrogance of all politicians both Democrat and Republican.

Drugs.

So -- DUI, reckless driving, hit-and-run, depraved indifference to human life.

But the courts in this state will back her up completely. The inmates are truly in charge of the asylum and law-abiding citizens are completely at the tender mercy of these maniacs.

I would trust a drug-dealing pimp before I turned my back on the average elected official in this state.

Several months ago a female aide to MA Gov. Patrick had a screaming fit and threw an appliance at a store clerk because Ms. “DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM??” tried to leave without paying. I wish I could find the posting on it.

I agree. Something is fishy with this whole story. Unfortunately I live in her district. Another Democrat is challenging this year. I cannot remember his name but he is a serious challenger. He would be just as liberal but maybe not as crazy.

The sodomite set in this state will do some obligatory tongue-clucking, but what they’re thinking is, “What’s the big deal? All she did was slam into a breeder cow and her little brat.”

Janklow was sentenced to 100 days in jail and he resigned his house seat.

The lesbian activist (author of the state's original domestic partners act...

I guess the the notion of 'conflict of interest' doesn't apply to sexual preference minorities.
