Since there is no mention of Dem or Repub, I would assume Dem since the story came from a big city newspaper.

BTTT. If this was a Republican, they'd be screaming his party from the headlines. Democrats, they never say what party he's from.

Sorry to say, he is a RINO Republican from Northeast Philly.

Since you're from his area, do you know why he was in Pittsburgh instead of Northeast Philly?



No clue. I can't bad mouth him too much. My boss at my old job knows him and when I needed help for my son with school he was right there to help me, even though I'm angry with him voting for the pay raise.

"Trouble is, the low esteem in which they are held by their constituents really doesn't matter."

Everytime the msm and dim pols gloat about GWB's low poll numbers I remind myself that low though they may be, they are much higher than the numbers of both the dim pols and msm.

There is a serious effort to target every incumbent next election

I'm here in Pittsburgh and am on board. Their arrogance is disgusting.

One of the fourth grade students asked Perzel if he had a Limosine. He responded "No" Just a big car. The student asked if they could see the Limo. He said no because there was no Limo. Turns out there was a Lincoln Towne Car, with a limo license on it that had indeed brought him to the school but an aide was sent out to tell the driver he was no longer needed. Perzel was driven from the school by another aide in a different car. Hummmm!!!

The story isn't Dem or Rep.

I figured that, since the posted story is about the Republican house speaker and the one I found was about the Dem minority leader. Done in the middle of the night huh? Nice.

BWAHAHAHA!!!! Perzel is an utter embarassment in a legislature rife with disgrace. I expect Dems to be Dems, but our RINOs have whipped me into a fury on this unconstitutional pay grab! They have made us the laughingstock of the entire country.

PhillyMom, that's a great poem! Did you write it? You must send it to Bob Durgin at WHP580!

No, Perzel is REPUBLICAN. Truly a scumbag from the Philadelphia area.

Should have said.. Perzel is a RINO. Still a scumbag, though.

I wrote it a couple of weeks ago; that's just one verse. A parady from Les Miserables: Here's the rest {my way of venting, besides writing letters to the editor}.

Speaker of the house
Doling out the charm
Ready with a handshake
And an open palm
Tells a saucy tale
Makes a little stir
Legislators appreciate a bon-viveur
Glad to do a friend a favor
Doesn't cost me to be nice
But nothing gets you nothing
Everything has got a little price!

Speaker of the house
Keeper of the zoo
Ready to relieve 'em
Of a buck or two
Watching every vote
Keeping ‘em up late
Pushing through a pay raise
When they can't see straight
Everybody loves the Speaker
Everybody's life-long friend
I do whatever pleases us
Then I milk 'em in the end!

Fools beyond compare
Hogs beyond belief
Mix in a resolution
To get tax relief
Keep ‘em off their guard
That is sure to please
Pass some resolution
They’ll forget the sleaze

Voters thoughts are not so welcome
And our time is occupied
To protect our pensions
And those little extras on the side!
Charge 'em for the cars
Extra for the vice
34% percent for us, oh that’s so nice
Here a little slice
There a little cut
Keep up a diversion so their mouths are shut
When it comes to raising salaries
There’s a lot of tricks he knows
How it all increases
And the Constitution?
No one knows!

Speaker of the house?
Feeding at the trough
Taking what we have
And more through greed and sloth
Cunning little brain
Regular Voltaire
Making deals and spinning wheels
With Jubilirer
What a cruel trick of nature
Sticking us with such a louse
God knows how we’ve lasted
Living with this Speaker in the house!

Everybody bless the Speaker!
Everybody bless his House!
Everybody raise a glass
And maybe all of this will pass!

Everybody raise a glass to the Speaker of the House

They brought in Perzel to dispute the theory of "intelligent design". LOL!
