‘Not engage in political activities during their normal working hours’: No politics? At the Statehouse? During normal working hours? ... How about legislating no medical activities at hospitals during normal working hours? ... If Ted Kennedy was indeed denied permission to hold a press conference on the Statehouse steps, the same should have applied to Mitt. But it all begs the question: Why do we even have this silly do-gooder ‘ethics’ law? OK, try to draw the line on lawmakers using state copying machines, staplers, paper clips, pens, stamps etc. But political posturing and rhetoric? ... Maybe the 'ethics' law was passed by concerned Dems after the Duke built a Statehouse pressroom -- complete with podium, blue curtains, lights, camera stage, press seats etc., all still there and used -- for regular press conferences during the ‘88 presidential campaign. ...
FYI: More allegedly Democratic-friendly unions are jumping into the DNC shakedown act. ...
