    It appears the politicians are no better at managing their personal affairs than they are at managing the affairs of the State.

    Still sounds cheaper than going to Vegas with Bill Bennett.

    The irony drips off this story like honey off a biscuit. How nice that while she was withholding tax and mortgage payments she voted herself a nice tax break of $20-60,000 in legislation that changed tax code so that principal loan losses by lenders due to foreclosure no longer became taxable event for borrowers--in Richardson's case about $200,000 in loss to lender. Nice as well that her local paper buries the story well inside the paper. If she has any integrity she will recuse herself from any future votes that have to do with the mortgage industry, housing, etc. but she doesn't and won't.

    Laura Richarson is currently using her political power to get her house back. I guess we are in Cuba, where the government can just take property from citizens for their personal benefit. Its sad to know that Laura Richardson has the same ethics and rights as Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez.

    What's more, Perv Matthews is apparently the only viable option. Whereas Richardson is a blatant Conwoman, Matthews is more of a weasel type who will steal millions without ever being caught. God help us.
