Like If Willie Sutton Was A Bank President By Day

Wow. We talked about the arrest of California legislator -- and Secretary of State candidate -- Leland Yee's arrest yesterday, but when you read the charges filed against him, holy sh-t. This is a liberal anti-gun politician -- he was behind legislation to ban some assault weapons -- and anti-Rush Limbaugh protestor who was apparently not practicing what he was preaching. To wit: According to the affidavit, he allegedly was dealing automatic weapons obtained through the Russians to Filipino rebels and Muslim terrorists and took cash bribes and campaign donations to influence pot legislation. And he told undercover agents of his desire to lead a different life, running away to the Philippines. This guy was not just dreaming of being a gangster, he was putting it into motion while STILL AN ELECTED OFFICIAL. An elected official who campaigned against violent video games. And his top fundraiser and advisor, the former President of the San Francisco Board of Education, is accused of being involved in arranging a hit. It's stunning how hypocritical and evil these guys are, if the charges are true.(San Francisco Magazine; San Francisco Chronicle)
