SacBee ^ | March 28, 2014

And remember the Dems have a super majority in both houses, although I imagine that is why they are reluctant to bounce these scum as then they would not be able to ram through any tax increases that they want. I will bet that they will allow these guys to vote from prison.

State Legislators are subject to State and Federal Law?

Sounds like a serious mistake on their part.

Well then, that does it, they are ‘not guilty’ </s>

Only a D would come up with this kind of sophistry.

Steinberg has been watching too much Seinfeld. He's channeling George Costanza.

Luck of the draw; all Seinfeld fans would think of that one right away with this lame “defense.”

We need to start seeing statistical demographic analysis of the real crooks....their religion, race, ethnic background, politics, urban v rural, Ivy League v other education, etc.

Am I the only one who sees a pattern of corruption that is embedded in USA that desperately needs extricated.

Gee, this reminds me of George Constanza on an episode of Seinfeld:

George: Was that wrong? Should I not have done that? I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to plead ignorance on this thing, because if I had known that sort of thing was frowned upon...

I think they should investigate Senator Darrell Steinberg too, going back to his days in grammar school.

And obviously they weren’t briefed on Constitutional law, either.

Or law in general.

Or common sense.

Thanks Second Amendment First.

Only a Dem could make up such a pathetically preposterous, lame, and just plain silly argument. Whatever happened to “ignorance of the law is no excuse”?

Yup, and if a Republican had made such a statement, it would be the lead story for five nights on the MSM.
