Graft, greed, and corruption. Is there anything else that this can be called?

Not much of a surprise I guess… 2 1/2 hours posted w/o a comment… guess no one in the city cares.

We get the government we deserve. City of St Louis Francis Slay is what you deserve.

Big deal. Do you expect them to give money to Irene Smith? What I’d like to know is, where was the scrutiny of Nixon’s laundered contributions from Ameren that he received while considering whether to prosecute them for the Taum Sauk incident? Perhaps you could file a sunshine request on the AG’s office and look into that one.

The definition of insane is, “Electing the same political party year after year after year and expecting a different result.”

Ladies and gentlemen who reside in the city of St Louis, you elected these morons, now you get to live with the results of your voting. Remember this the next time you vote.

Good thing we have transparency in our campaign financing. Before the reforms, Thompson Coburn would have contributed the same amount, but they would have funnelled it through numerous groups, which makes it difficult to ascertain where the money came from.

Jake, have these attorneys given to Slay in the past? If so then this is a nonstory. Infact, the city did very little in comparison to say, Clayton or St. Louis county to keep a company. the story should be that the county continues to steal the city’s jobs. Thompson Coburn chose to stay downtown and they continue to contribute to politicians. Poor journalism Mr. Wagman.

I wonder how Dr. Suggs, Chris King and co at the American feel about the Franklin brothers of FUSE giving to the mayor.
