Business as usual in New York
From the
New York Post:
�Grea$e� is the word for pols
Democratic state Sen. Malcolm Smith and GOP City Councilman Dan Halloran were caught on damning FBI wiretaps bribing GOP bosses in order to �grease the wheels� for Smith�s mayoral run on the Republican ticket, authorities revealed yesterday.
Smith, Halloran and four others were arrested in predawn raids on a slew of federal conspiracy and bribery charges that could send them to prison for up to 45 years.
The FBI used a confidential informant and an undercover agent � both posing as real-estate developers � to secretly record the pols hatching their plot.
Bunch of other people were named in the article. No shame at all...
