Thomas' statement to state prosecutors concerned ballot-collection work for Martinez when he ran for county chairman in 1998, Hood's 2000 mayoral campaign, Siplin's and Apte's campaigns in 2002 and Dyer's mayoral campaigns in 2003 and 2004, Mosley said.

I wonder what's the statute of limitations for this felony?

Imagine the headline and the general take of this article had the mayor been a Republican.

This is the worst written piece of crap I can remember reading in a major newspaper. I don't understand a single fact or who's who.

Amazing how long it took the NY Times to mention the fact that the Mayor was a democrat. If this would have been a Republican they would have put it in the first sentence.

If anybody knows how to play dirty, not to mention illegal, fraudulent, felonious, etc.... it's the democrats. In Washington State, they think they've gotten away with it.

Somebody needs to start a list of corrupt Rats; where they're from and how they lied, cheated, swindled, stole, raped, pillaged, et al.

We could print up the list(s) and pass it/them out to the hysterical Rats who try to argue that Bush stole two elections.

ratmedia reporting 101: When the crook in a pubbie, it's in the headline. When it's a rat that got caught, do not mention this in the first story, then bury it thereafter so they always can deny charges of bias.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Six paragraphs in the Prosecutor making his first appearance identified as a Republican and the mayor pro-tem in his first appearance in paragraph nine identified as a Republican but it takes ten paragraphs and seven appearances by Dyer before he is identified as a Democrat.

And people wonder why the MSN is on a down hill slide.
