#1 Yaknow, this is actually good. Everywhere has crooked politicians, but in the USA, we actually prosecute a lot of them.

#5 1) Note that the reporter neglected to report the mayor's political affiliation (Democrat).

2) New Jersey is the new Louisiana.

#7 "Levy's service record shows he served two tours in Vietnam and was decorated for bravery twice."

Sounds like he was a genuine hero. And yet he thought he had to lie to make himself seem "more heroic"?

Wotta maroon. He needs to quit spending so much time with Skerry....

#9 The city's image as a bastion of bad government

Do the put that on the signs?
"Welcome to Atlantic City: Bastion of Bad Government".
And then you could put the current mayor's name in in pencil...

#10 This ties in nicely with the manufactured smear by Media Matters over Rush's comment on Jesse McBeth, a.k.a. the "phony soldier". The mayor of Atlantic City is a phony soldier as well. Said he served in the Green Berets--- he didn't.
