Owl, I know how heart-broken you must be as we witness another example of the Feds trying to keep a good man down! Will the Feds stop at nothing in their quest to destroy this man? I mean, so he gave his brother a no-bid contract to build an airport...so what? Next, they're going to be saying that he's overrated as a mayor because he's black...
What's breaking my heart is that John Street has surged ahead in the polls DUE to this investigation. This is one of the ugliest, clearly racist campaigns I've ever seen run. Street is clearly trying to appeal to the basest instincts of the voters... and it's working.
The specter of what living in Philadelphia will be like under a lame duck Street administration is chilling. I was speaking with my Ward Leader last night and she and I are both afraid that the crime, corruption, cronyism, graft and mismanagement that is Street's stock and trade will lower the value of our homes so drastically that we may be trapped in what only a short time ago were great neighborhoods.
Now we are the taxbeasts of burden for the openly racist Street administration.
Sigh...
