    Birds of a Feather.You have chosen your associates

    and, although you are, clearly, intelligent, well-informed and very experienced,

    you have chosen to associate with obstinate, self-serving, incompetent

    blockheads who do not hear the anger and anguish of the grassroots, the

    Forgotten Taxpayers, and the middle class working people who are being

    exploited by ever escalating size and cost of government and are selling out the

    loyal and credulous Republican voter.

    Pennsylvania Republican Party Leadership (sometimes called The Establishment,

    or, as a rude child of nature might say the bad guys)

    CasablancaPa (27 February 2012) On top of the Orie fiasco, Senate Rs

    awarded thelargest bonuses of any in the General Assembly, to

    employees who did campaign work:

    $22,500 toMike Long, former top aide to then-SenatePresident Pro Tempore Robert Jubelirer of Blair County.

    $19,647 toDrew Crompton, then a top lawyer on Jubelirer'sstaff.

    $15,000 to Erik Arneson, former chief of staff to then-Senate Majority Leader David Brightbill;

    Shocked at corruption in Pennsylvania Senate,

    are we? SeeTurnpike Grand Jury Report 13 March 2013andAttorney

    Generals Press Release and Brad Bumsteds reference to the spirit of Senate

    bipartisanship

    Robert Jubelirer whose former chief of staff was.Mike Long: It's odd,

    though, that Mellow is the only elected official named in the report. During the

    past decade, Fumo and former Senate President Pro Tem Robert Jubelirer, R-

    Altoona, had the most influence at the Turnpike Commission. Jubelirer has not

    been accused of any wrongdoing.READ MORE Tribune Review Brad
