snafu Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 So much for the honest people I've been talking about in the villages up here. Seven postal officials from Bush communities across the state have been charged in federal court with pilfering tens of thousands of dollars in cash and checks from their employer while on the job, the U.S. attorney said Monday.

Moderators IWS Posted September 17, 2008 Moderators Posted September 17, 2008 You should be ok, Snaf. All you do is play freecell on USPS time. Don't worry. :D Quote One of the consequences of such notions as "entitlements" is that people who have contributed nothing to society feel that society owes them something, apparently just for being nice enough to grace us with their presence.? ~ Thomas Sowell
Times Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 I am sure it is just coincidence that these charges were made public now, when there is so much work being done to try and discredit and stain Palin with something to hurt her, even if it is just to create an negative image for the people in Alaska and not directly against her. This is not really a new kind of crime, mail personel have been getting busted with these kinds of crimes for a very long time. I have never really had a lot of respect for most government jobs, it seems like most don't really care about what they are doing, they are just "putting in their time". I am glad these guys were busted though, they also need some very harsh punnishments to go with it to show an example for the other mail employees.

When you subsidize poverty and failure, you get more of both.? ~ James Dale Davidson
snafu Posted September 17, 2008 Author Posted September 17, 2008 Yeah they have been investigating some of these since 2002. It is kinda funny why they would lump them all together. But this is part of my job. They send their bank deposits to me. Quote *NEVER FORGOTTEN*
