Attorney General Kathleen Kane, Pennsylvania's highest ranking row officer, wields more power inside the state than anyone except the Governor himself. But I love her latest reaction, through a spinmeister, to a Grand Jury's recommendation that she be charged with contempt and perjury. She is using the same defense that I have often heard from Karen, now K. Dierdre Dolan defenders. She's just a poor young woman being railroaded by "bitter and angry" men. Maybe she should quote a little Shakespeare, too.
Philadelphia Daily News columnist Christine Flowers, retorts that it is Kane's "gross incompetence, not misogyny at the root of the attacks."

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Really O'Hare. Why can't you let these poor young women alone. This is some sick obsession you have with women.
ReplyDeleteMr. O'Hare seems to have an obsession with incompetence and corrupt persons in government that the taxpayers subsidize .
ReplyDeleteAs Kane is AG, who makes the decision to charge her or not? The Governor, legislature, or who?
ReplyDeleteFrom My understanding it is the local D.A. of the sitting grand jury.Without any commentary I predict the D.A. won't charge Her as the D.A. does not want to upset The Democratic Machine
ReplyDeleteThe DA is a no nonsense woman. Charges are coming.
ReplyDeleteThe DA is also an R who'd love to upset the D machine.
ReplyDeleteThe person who decides to prosecute is a Republican DA:

3:26 AM - Keep sucking on your swill and working on your legal briefs, sweetie. You may be so soused you can't comprehend facts. Bernie voted for Kane, I believe. So did I. But it looks like she's in over her head, and made a serious mistake. I hate to see it happen, but when people make mistakes (like defaming others) there is an accounting to be expected.
ReplyDeleteYou can try to spinnnnn this as Bernie is "obsessed" with something, but it is obvious that you, a disgraced failed candidate, is the one who is obsessed, not the reporter.
Hey Bern.....You like to look up corrupt shit......check out how a retired Bethlehem cops kids (Scott Parry) got off on a DUI in Bethlehem just recenty....I believe if You look hard enough You will find out it was also some type of accident..........................................................................

Kane is a disgrace. Total incompetence and regardless of D or R, she needs to go. BTW, if Capt. Morgans comments are accurate, that is a disgrace- DUI is a charge that should never be dismissed just because you know someone...
ReplyDeleteI see nothing that backs up his anonymous attack.
ReplyDeleteOh please @533. Because other charges should be looked the other way? Plain and simple if you do the crime you do the time. Any crime
