Vince Fumo Is A Democrat
Jeff Gammage had a very interesting story in today's Philadelphia Inquirer as to what former State Sen. Vince Fumo can look forward to as he serves his 55-month sentence at a federal facility in Kentucky. He neglected to mention Fumo's party, a simple oversight I'm sure.
Fumo, of course, is a Democrat. Perhaps Gammage felt that mentioning the 55-month prison sentence made it redundant to refer to the political party.

The top story in today's Philadelphia Inquirer involved the filing of corruption charges by Attorney General Tom Corbett against former Senate Majority Leader John Perzel and nine other Republicans.And it was topest story I've seen in the Inky in a long time, with a four-column double-deck headline and a subhead and big three column picture and a big, bold pull out and a couple of sidebars.And yes, as I predicted, it mentioned that those charged where Republicans several times - including in the pull out and in one of sidebar headlines.I was wrong, though, that the Inky would ... -

The Philadelphia Inquirer, today, reported the sentencing of Susan A. Skotnicki, 53, a longtime aide to "disgraced former State Sen. Vincent J. Fumo".What did the Inquirer again neglect to mention regarding Ms. Skotnicki or the "disgraced former State Sen."?To assist the Inquirer in its journalistic mission, I'll again point out the party involved was the Democrats.Ms. Skotnicki, btw, got four years probation for theft via inflating her boss' meal expenses by thousands of dollars. ...
