The arrogance of Obama and this Leslie Johnson are on a par.

“Leslie could go to jail for more than a year, which of course, means that she will then be forced to relinquish her public office.”

Lets hope the judge is not bought off.

A prominent Maryland councilwoman who made international headlines for flushing a bribe down the toilet and stuffing another in her underwear has pleaded guilty to a felony but won’t leave her $96,417-a-year public job.

In Massachusetts, Diane Wilkerson stuffed her bra with bribes on hidden camera. She eventually got kicked out of office and convicted. Same corrupt story, different location.

Which once again begs the question "is there even one black Democrat official who is NOT corrupt?"

Dang if it doesn't look like the same percentage of criminal black politicians as criminal street thug blacks in prison. Could there be some cultural correlation going on? Not very PC to ask, I guess. Maybe just that the pooleese are watching em closer, profiling and all.

On leaving the courtroom, Leslie was heard to say, “I’ve got this bra and it’s f’ing golden!”.

No mention of her party affiliation.

How curious.

A conquering people often feel a sense of entitlement and privilege when when they compare themselves to the vanquished. "They feel themselves the bright ones, the happy ones, they who make the law."-A Great Historian 1888

We should stiffen our upper lip and endure. As time passes we will accept such conduct without murmer. As the Gaul said to the Roman: "Woe to the conquered."

Why on earth would she resign?? She makes $96,000 /year
Johnson does not have to resign from the council until her Oct. 13 sentencing. She would earn about $28,000 of her $96,417 annual salary in the next 3 1/2 months.

What sort of mental giant pays (or accepts) a bribe written on a check?

Well I suppose in a pinch it could be eaten or flushed, but somewhere, somehow it has to be cashed or deposited if it’s really effective.

Nothing like democrats. Rules and laws are made for others.

Over and over again, blacks elected to office in areas of large Black population engage in graft. They excuse it because they need the money and they can't get it legally because of racism. Most of their constituents don't see anything wrong with it. It is sad and it is an indictment of prevailing Black morality!
