Pataki's Own Whitewater
We keep forgetting about the Other George, George Pataki the governor of New York, and HIS coming race for the presidency in 2008.0 comments
Gee, it's so-o-o-o-o easy to do.
But thanks to an actual, brave PUBLIC SERVANT, this time State Controller Alan Hevasi, Georgie P. will actually have something that reporters can dog him about on the campaign trail.
Maybe the Democrats can spend ANOTHER $8 million of taxpayer money the way the GOP did, and tie things up for the next couple of years, investigating a land scandal of the Republican variety, this time.
The Canal-gate Scandal has popped up a couple of times over the last year or so, but from the reactions of some in the Pataki camp, it seems to have finally gained some legs.
Here's how Pataki's staff, committed to the Common Good as they are, responded in e-mails when Hevasi single-handedly killed a well orchestrated land grab by Thomas Hutchens, a major Pataki campaign contributor, who only paid $30,000 for the rights to develop homes along the 500-mile Erie Canal.
Gov staff's %$#! rap for Hevesi
Temper, temper, Miss Stoll.
