You know, public officials really make me laugh. Take Eddie "Slots" Rendell, for example. He wins $2,000 at a Chester County casino, and doesn't report his good fourtune to the PA Ethics Commission until he is questioned about it by a reporter from the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Rendell claims that he wasn't trying to hide anything, and called the omission a "clerical oversight," by aides who assist him in completing the paperwork that's submitted to the Commission. Please Governor, do not insult my intelligence and that of the citizens of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania with such lame excuses. You are the highest elected public official in the State, you're not supposed to make these kinds of mistakes.
In case you need a reminder, Sir you were the one who rammed the legislation to legalize casino gambling in Pennsylvania down the throats of the taxpayers and residents of this great State, do not think that puts you above the law when you benefit from this ill-advised venture.
