What Stinkin' Ethics?

Sunday morning musings on a seeming oxymoron: ethics and morality in politics

By Ozboy

There are two articles in this morning's SL Tribune that deal with ethics and morality - or the lack thereof - in our less than esteemed State Legislature.

The first is about a scam centered on Charter Schools and the legislator/hustlers that are raking in big bucks at the tax payers expense. See it here: GOP scammers

And another great Rebecca Walsh piece on ethics, or lack thereof, in our Legislature. Check it out here:

What stinking ethics?

My favorite quote from the Walsh piece comes from our state's leading Democrat - Dimitrich - who for all the world comes across as a Utah Republican. When asked about his own $7,000 take of swag from favor seekers, good old - I never saw a bribe I didn't like Mike - says:

"I guess ethics belongs to the individual."
