When I tell you guys I have a horrid degenerative nerve disease that makes it hard to type, you're all going to feel really badly about teasing me for typos.:p

And yes, Chekov is more like it. Dirty Commie.

I don't know, liberals and conservatives from both ends of the spectrum are sooo much fun to pick on - but friends is friends despite the different views.

Democrat House Candidate Deb Eddy Admits Theft of King County GOP Property

Democrat Deb Eddy, 48th District state House candidate, has admitted to illegally removing lawfully posted campaign signs belonging to the King County GOP. (documentation here) :

(KCGOP) is asking that [Bellevue Police Dept.], in conjunction with Prosecutor Maleng, take the following action with regard to Deb Eddy who has admitted to acts against the property of the KCGOP constituting theft in the first degree (RCW 9A.56.030), possession of stolen property in the first degree (RCW 9A.56.150) and the lesser included offense of removing or defacing political advertising (RCW 29A.84.040). Theft in the first degree and possession of stolen property in the first degree are both class B felonies (RCW 9A.56.030 and 9A.56.150). Removing political advertising is a misdemeanor. A conviction of either felony charge would warrant removal from public office under RCW 42.12.010.

For the umpteenth time, it's not about "Repubs are corrupt and Dems aren't." Duh, no one believes that. It's about the fact that Repubs bank their entire existence as a party on the "fact" that they represent the "moral majority", that to vote Democrat is a morally bankrupt choice, that their shining moral compass is what will save this country. So yes, whenever it comes to light that "moral" Republicans ain't so moral afterall (omg, they're human, not mesiahs?!) they're going to, rightfully, take more flack than Democrats who never claimed, as a group, to be morally superior in the first place.

Thank you! Exactly!

yeah- the notion that it is ok to be morally bankrupt as long as you tout it like your best asset.

- and oddly enough I am not conservative for any of those reasons.

Ah well-

I wish they'd go after those from all parties who litter the public right-of-way with political signs.

Alas, wishful thinking.

Near where I work there is a long stretch of road near a golf course and lots of housing that is surrounded by lush vegitation. Very pretty.

In the center of the divided highway are about 40 small signs each with either No on "whatever" and the other half were Yes on "whatever". The funny part is that they are set up so each follows the other and if you read it at 35 mph, you get yesnoyesnoyesnoyesnoyesnoyesnoyesnoyesnoyesnoyesno yesnoyesnoyesnoyesnoyesnoyesno

I wish someone would make up thier mind! ;)
