You almost have to feel sorry for new Pennsylvania governor Tom Wolf (D). The man’s just moved into Harrisburg, gotten his voice mail straightened out, starting to get a feel for the morning commute, and then WHAMM! – his (Democratic) Attorney General (Kathleen Kane) is on the verge of being indicted for perjury and his (Democratic) Treasurer (Rob McCord) is resigning, not to mention preparing to plead out on extortion charges:

Wait...I thought only Republicans were corrupt.

I don’t think I would have plea bargained with him; I would hve tried to make him an example.

Better a plea deal than a Budd Dwyer press conference.

Nobody robs banks anymore. The crooks all get government jobs or get into politics.

Stumper of the day:

Are there more felons in the democrat party than there are in the NFL?

If I add the felons in the NBA, will that exceed the number of felon-O-crats?

What if I added all the felons in prison?

OK, OK, I give up.

ex·tor·tion ikˈstôrSH(ə)n/ noun the practice of obtaining something, especially money, through force or threats. synonyms: blackmail, shakedown; formalexaction "arrested on a charge of extortion" So WHO did they extort?? Stealing from the state without force or blackmail is called embezzlement. WHO were they shaking down?

Ok he threatened not to give jobs to those who did not donate to his campaign?? Without proof and money changing hands, this does not make sense. I read it, but no proof was offered.

The wheels are coming off the Kane Klown Kar.

ouch ... Kane can't even speak on her home turf now because of her mounting troubles.

Luzerne County group dumps AG Kane from guest list at gala

Maybe the Clintons will come back and campaign for her again! LOL!
