Speaking of Rowland: It's about damn time he resigned. His speech carried no note of remorse, only regret for losing his grip on power. It was delivered coldly, but not stoically. He's a lying, dishonorable bastard who should be disgraced, publically ridiculed, and then locked up.

I've tried to ignore his slow burn self-destruction one state away from me, but no luck; each week brought new evidence of a politician, to quote Lou Reed, "caught with his pants down and money sticking in his hole."

Good f*cking riddance.
