Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver Arrested.


Recommended Posts

You're absolutely correct grampy.

 

Silver is also the one who worked to put a stop to the "moreland commission" last spring. No surprise there really, as it turned out Silver was one of the primary targets.

So far Albany Dems appear to be standing behind him though.

It's bad enough that these people do this kind of thing, but that they have the arrogance to think that they'll get away with it and that we commoners won't notice or care is just an astounding level of moral corruption IMO.

Does anyone remember the specifics about just why the corruption commission was disbaned? Cumo agreed to decommission the investigations if the legislature passed his proposed budget, on time. It was all over the news and I thought it was pretty odd at the time. He was sort of admitting he knew his legislators were corrupt, he'd look the other way if they'd greased his palms by passing the budget. What's that say about our NYS elected officials and how our state is run??? Pretty sure Silver is only the tip of the iceberg! May be just a personal vendetta, but I'm hoping Skelos is under investigation also.

So let's put this in upbeat mood I dedicate this to good ole Andy....

Take this verse structure and repeat..to the tune of she'll be coming around mountain...

They'll be driving around the State House when they come,when they come.

They'll be driving around the State House when they come,when they come

They'll be driving around the State House,they'll be driving around the State House

They'll be driving around the State House when they come,when they come.

They'll be driving 6 black Yukons when they come,when they come

They'll be carrying white subpoenas when they come,when they come

OH they'll all jump out to grab him when they come,when they come

He'll be wearing a bright orange jump suit when they come,when they come

We'll then down the Safe Act when they come,when they come

We'll be shouting "Helleluja" when they come,when they come

They'll be driving down the thruway when they come,when they come.
