The religious right is motivated by the suspicion that someone, somewhere,
is having fun -- and that this must be stopped.
Cocaine, that is. Seems that prominent Republican and South Carolina Treasurer Thomas Ravenel thought that the laws about cocaine possession and distribution didn't apply to him because, like, he's a millionaire and stuff. Which makes him just another typical Republican office-holder nowdays, who believes the law applies only to the "little people", not to the elite like them.

The Republican party would be dead now if it would not be for the idiots who love arrogant, elitist leaders.
ReplyDeleteThe I look at the Democrats, I just shake my head in disappointment.
..but you can’t hide.
ReplyDeleteIf Ravenel is convicted of distribution of cocaine, he can serve as much as 20 years in prison. I would say that it is more likely that he will cut a “plea deal” to serve a short amount of time behind bars along with probation.
If Ravenel cuts a “plea deal”, in other words, “pleads guilty” then the Feds should insist that he roll over on a “Bigger Fish” If he does not roll over, then he should do some serious jail time with the rest of the “Cocaine Distributors”.
