My attention today was immediately directed to the right column on the first page : "Patterson is Said to Direct Aides in Abuse Case"...
Should I be surprised that yet another politician is corrupt? Probably not. Should I be surprised that money and power can get you out of a horrible crime? Again, probably not. However, I am continuously surprised by the lack of conscience present in cases like these and the lengths people will go to in order to cover their tracks.
Governor David A. Paterson is caught in the act of pressuring the two women who brought up assault charges on the governor's aid. Excuse me? Are we still operating on the 1950's complex where the man is always right?
All I could think about while reading this was Governor Deval Patrick, being from Massachusetts. He has so much to do with so much Mass residents daily lives, behind the scenes in so many policies and bills and we all put our trust in him to do this job to the best of his ability. These people that we trust to make our lives better could so easily make them worse, as Paterson has so "generously" shown us. Sickening.
