Allow me a moment to shift my focus to the other side of the aisle and remind folks what real corruption looks like. I really don't think enough is being said in the 527 media about the craziness that has been going on in Cuyahoga County for at least three years.
The Plain Dealer barely scratches the surface of the tip on this particular iceberg with their latest update on the Culture of Corruption in Cleveland.
This is the sort of thing that happens when you allow petty ethical lapses go... Ohio Demcorats go WAY beyond failing to report golf outings and scalping OSU tickets, but you'll never see that kind of comparison in an editorial. We've gotten far too used to seeing just how bad those evil Republicans are and the media still refuses to use the word "Democrat" in these stories...so who is to blame for allowing this racket to continue? We all are...elections matter.
Developing...MUCH more to come...
RELATED UPDATE: Tom and I covered this on the radio show, but it bears repeating in this context too... Let's not forget that T-Shirt Ted's staff has tax problems too...
