Keystone kleptos - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "Keystone kleptos
Wednesday, April 26, 2006
The Pennsylvania General Assembly is not as ineffectual as its reputation suggests.
With impressive ingenuity and yet monumental modesty beyond its respective districts, the Legislature's bipartisan leadership deftly created a funding mechanism for favored nonprofit organizations that redefines incestuous and gives Pennsylvanians a new appreciation for the principled statecraft of banana republics.
At least six legislators earmarked about $29 million to nonprofits they created, control or are associated with, which, coincidently, help them politically."
