New Jersey's Governor Appoints The State's Attorney General, Chief Justice of the NJ Supreme Court and the county District Attorneys.
Name someone, besides the Federal Justice Department, who would investigate corruption in the Governnor's Office... NO ONE!!!
New Jersey's current Governor Jon Corzine's First APPOINTED Attorney General Quits Due To Her Own Ethics Violations... Remember New Jersey's Governor Jim Mc Greevey? He had his own ethics violations and he was never charged by the New Jersey Courts. Appointing his lover to the State's highest Homeland Security position.
Governor Jon Corzine is surrounded by too much corruption. I'm interested in hearing more about these emails between him and the union leader.
His first Attorney General was an extremely poor choice of his. (An Attorney General quits because of her own ethics disgrace.)
I finally found where I placed the article about Corzine's first Attorney General.
True. It's not that corrupt in itself. There are a lot of good people in Texas. It's unfortunate that there are several high profile scum-bags that just happened to come from there. But you're right, overall there is not as much corruption as I recall in some other places.
Texas has a lot of religious conservatives without much formal education who can be taken for a ride easily by the likes of Bush, DeLay, Rove and all. They are not necessarily "good people" just simpletons who have a belief system that can lead to the lynching of a black guy or dragging of one behind a truck for miles (happened only 10 years ago). Note that a belief in God does not necessarily make you good, or all the people who ran the inquisition would be saints.
Corruption does not mean bribery or nepotism, it also means a corruption of values, ethics and morals. As an American, to me these are the values represented in the constitution. To a lot of people in Texas, these are written in the Bible, I doubt if they have even heard of the constitution.

So, to me, that makes Texas corrupt.
anytime an elected official says god is on his side.. u know we're in for some corruption.... its a beautiful smoke screen.. that churches use to get followers.. and if it's good enough for them.. its good enough for good ole boys in texas right?
The Trans-Texas Corridor is a supersize Illinois State Toll Highway Authority. Once that's built, the quality of the FREE Interstate Highway system will go downhill.
Apparently the politicians noticed that they need some 'bank' to keep their bribes in and to rob the motoring public by not providing rail-improvement alternative. Besides literal 'highway robbery,' ever heard about the speed tracking plan to be implemented with the new open-road tolling infrastructure? The I-PASSes themselves can be a tracking device simply just for the date and time of use. This should be more than enough to tick off Libertarians.
This is like not building roads but only canals and improving other waterways in the Confederate South. It was even written in the Confederate Constitution.
