Jane Orie Caught In A Tit-For-Tat Wringer?

If a Democratic prosecutor were to apply the Corbett public integrity prosecution standard to Republicans overlooked by the Corbett campaign public integrity prosecutors, it might look something like this . . . and be similarly unattractive.

UPDATE: Sen. Orie's lawyer has reached (or, at least, says he will reach) reflexively for the thermonuclear devices. If the current launch trajectory is maintained, every current elected official in Pennsylvania could be jailed by spring. (Or maybe not -- if all the prosecutors are behind bars, who would arrange the final convictions?)

UPPERDATE: If Law Claus was quoted accurately and meant what he said concerning his office's "zero tolerance" policy, he might wish to review this report . . . or this one . . . or this one . . . or this one, or . . . (If he likes his job, however, he might not.) But if a "zero tolerance" threshold is genuinely in place, the jeopardy zone might extend beyond current elected officials to include former elected officials.

Latest Grand Jury Leak Indicates Political Campaigns, Official Duties Do Not Mix Well

The Associated Press has received from Tom Corbett's prosecution factory obtained grand jury transcripts that reflect unsavory activity common along both sides of Harrisburg's aisles contain vaguely vilifying allegations concerning Democratic leader Todd Eachus.

These dispatches from the Corbett campaign revelations have, like the recent and curiously timed indictments and grand jury leaks concerning Bill DeWeese, refocused unflattering spotlights on Harrisburg Democrats, shortly after the attorney general's indictment of recently deposed Republican leader John Perzel ended an extended, headline-filled period of Democratic exclusivity with respect to Corbett's corruption investigation.

If happenstance, rather than political calculation, has controlled the timing and D-to-R ratio of these leaks and press conferences, the Corbett campaign has been the beneficiary of a series of remarkable breaks. In fact, the only break that has not gone the Corbett campaign's way involved the trial of former Representative Sean Ramaley, who was acquitted of all charges advanced by Corbett (after those charges extinguished his strong bid for a state senate seat, handing a competitive race to a Republican).

The exoneration of Ramaley has been the only element of the progression not entirely within Corbett's control. But it can't be ascribed to happenstance. It was the work of a jury, the only independent appraisal of Corbett's campaign prosecutorial effort so far. If the point of the "Bonusgate" investigation and prosecutions was to demonstrate that elected officials should not mix partisan politics with official duties, candidate attorney general Corbett might succeed beyond his plans.

OK, OK, I Give -- By Popular Request, Odds Posted On The Shields-Peduto-Dowd Cage Match

Describing the reasoning would be too depressing, so the lines are posted without comment at the Propositions Board (far right column).

Holiday Specials (this event only): All winning tickets doubled if blood spilled, chair thrown, table overturned, or any philosopher from college introductory survey course quoted on record.

UPDATE: Dowd's BFF line adjusted.

Nothing Like A Unanimous Council Vote To Signal Trouble Right Here In Three-River City

When can a 9-0 vote be bitter, divisive and ominous?

When it's just another day in InsolvenCity.

Today's Post-Gazette recounts a unanimous Pittsburgh city council vote (prevailing wage, for anyone interested) that portends poorly from the perspective of anyone who wants the city to succeed.

Both substantial camps of the current council -- the progressives, led by Bill Peduto and Doug Shields, and the [insert perjorative term here]s, led by Jim Motznik -- aimed nasty, undisguised jabs at Patrick Dowd during what might have been the most fractious journey toward a unanimous vote in council history.

For the moment, at least, Dr. Dowd appears to occupy a bizarre and isolated position between the independence-minded holdovers and the receding group that remains available to the Ravenstahl administration's paving-and-patronage pitches. Repelling a natural ally seems an unaffordable luxury for both Dr. Dowd and the imminent progressive/independent/competent majority whatever remains of a progressive hope on council.

That unanimous vote, meanwhile, may signal a mayoral veto (prevailing wage, for anyone interested).

Perhaps someone with more experience or technical insight could provide a better explanation, but a layman's guess is that a City of Pittsburgh employee -- apparently using a city computer, on taxpayer time -- is cataloguing the entirety of the Infinonyverse, perhaps downloading every page.

If this is the mayor's office's way of acknowledging that it needs advice from sources other than Republican "influencer" John Verbanac or Ravenstahl's former high school athletic trainer (pardon, make that incoming assistant parks director and outgoing public affairs director) David White, this could be construed as progress and a compliment.

If so, no need to rely on indirect illumination, Luke Yarone Joanna Gabe whomever: advice is available for the asking: Infinonymous@gmail.com

The Igloo's Future: An Ice Floe And A Shove?

By special request (from the author of a proposal to save the Civic Arena), the Propositions Board (far right column) introduces a line on the fate of Pittsburgh's Civic Arena, a marvel whose retractable roof was ahead of its time and opened far too infrequently.

Those pondering a wager should keep in mind that the sole factor controlling the building's fate will be whether the mayor's handlers can find a way to make a buck from the deal, either way.

If Dowd Votes For Burgess, Pass The Matches

A commenter has suggested that Pittsburgh city council member Patrick Dowd might vote for Rev. Ricky Burgess in the election of the next council president.

If Dr. Dowd votes for the mayor's toady, it will be time to place InsolvenCity in a paper bag, douse it with lighter fluid, place it on the state's doorstep and ring the doorbell.

Will City Council Promote "Ricky Loves Lukey"?

No -- at least not unless several people are lying.

After fresh research (in response to skepticism from the Comet), the Propositions Board line on Burgess for Pittsburgh council president remains 50-1. The polarization concerning and instigated by the mayor's office, coupled with Rev. Burgess' recent fealty to the mayor, appears to deny Rev. Burgess at least five votes. Even by Pittsburgh pension math, that's underfunded.

The line on council's handling of the tuition tax proposal has narrowed, to 1-1.

The epic 'could I look any dumber or any more disingenuous' display by county toadie Tim Johnson WTAE report on "sabotage" in the county assessment office (spotlighted by the Comet) keeps the "county in contempt on assessments" line in play, although the deadline has moved into spring. (Related: As pathetic as Johnson's performance is, the Post-Gazette's handling of this story may be worse.)

The Hons Has Left The Newsroom At KDKA

When speaking into a microphone held by a local broadcaster, it often is difficult to concentrate on the topic at hand because of cascading thoughts: How did someone this oblivious get this job? Is this one worse than the one from the other station who was here earlier? How can this person not remember what we discussed 90 seconds ago? Should I just grab the microphone, ask myself the obvious question (or just a relevant question) and answer it? If were to reply that 'It is difficult to respond because my Neptunian overlords are attempting to contact me on my other frequency,' would this reporter just nod vacantly and say, 'Yes, I understand . . . please elaborate on that for our viewers. . . . '

Fred Honsberger, however, was different. He seemed interested in substantive analysis, and was able to contribute to a debate. He could wing it too much for my taste, particularly in longer interviews, but he never was vacant. Far more opinionated than other local interviewers, Fred nonetheless was courteous and generally fair, on and off the air. (I understand some in his audience considered him a bully, but I never experienced it.) It bothered me that Fred was invariably more interested in gathering background information after an interview concluded than when preparation might have improved the on-air exchange, but he seemed to be familiar with, even curious about, many issues. In Pittsburgh, that distinguished him.

Despite Fred's reflexive straying into partisan territory, and his years conducting true-believer talk shows, I considered Fred Honsberger a journalist. I knew, from his time as a straight news reporter in extended formats and on deadline, that he could write a proper sentence and an informative report. Not once, not even during hour-long interviews or contentious exchanges, was I tempted to strangle him with a microphone cord for crimes against journalism.

Therefore, for Fred, who died today, at 58:

Recent Propositions Board Activity

The Propositions Board (far right column) states odds on selected events and local, state and national elections.

New to the board: the proposed threatened never-gonna-happen Pittsburgh tuition tax. Anyone who believed the educational institutions would flip a dime the city's way consequent to Luke's threats has already lost; the smart money expects the eggheads to win in court and in the legislature.

Ravensthal indictment lines are unchanged by the separation announcement, and Luke's wife is still quoted as roughly five times more likely to turn state's evidence than Luke's mom is. For betting purposes, the separation is a non-event.

Rev. "Ricky Loves Lukey" Burgess has all but nailed down the "Mayor's next BFF on Council" payoff with a series of obsequious moves, although Theresa Smith is still a longshot and Darlene Harris apparently will do anything if enough asphalt is involved.

Luke announced he (instead of his campaign fund) is paying Richard Sprague, but tickets should be held until someone explains how he could afford it.

Carrie Prejean paid off as the newest social conservative to fall from grace (sex tape), but after reloading the lines she is still a favorite to be revealed anew as a Bible-banging hypocrite.

The G20 fallout is far from finished, but anyone who bet that the "trophy photo" cops would be disciplined was right -- no thanks to anyone in Pittsburgh, of course, because the reprimands were issued in Chicago. A massive lawsuit by a team of big-time lawyers is rumored, so the amounts might change for the lines involving payouts to victims (and lawyers).

Wagers, comments on posted odds and suggestions concerning unlisted events are welcome.

If You Can't Step Away From The Screen (Vol. 5)

My taste in holiday movies occupies a broad range -- if anyone can top It's A Wonderful Life to Bad Santa, let me know. (Movies starring any member of Tiger Woods' harem do not count.)

One of my favorites features few traditional holiday trappings, focusing more on the human motivations and interactions -- expected and unexpected -- that make holidays worth preparing for and experiencing. A standard-issue professional on a business trip, played by Steve Martin, strives to reach his unexpectedly elusive home for Thanksgiving, helped and hindered by a more complicated and roadwise traveling salesman, played by John Candy.

Martin's character reminds me why I want to be home for holidays; Candy's reminds me why a younger me volunteered to work on holidays. Together -- it is almost purely a two-man show -- they generate laughter (several transcendental scenes and, I'd wager, ample ad-libbing) and unexpected insight (writer and director: John Landis). Suitable for the family, although not as airbrushed as much of Landis' work, and scheduled for the TV Land channel on December 18, beginning at 9 p.m., from 1989: Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

Politics Mag Peddles Politico Porn -- Purported 'Influencers' List -- At Pennsylvania Society (Plus: Why Are These People In New York?)

It can be difficult to get a word out edgewise while gang-shoveling free, fist-sized shrimp in, but Pennsylvania Societeers are an elite corps up to the task, especially when politico porn -- this list of "most influential" political Pennsylvanians -- circulates on Society weekend in New York.

The lists (50 Republicans, 50 Democrats) feature the same level of attention to non-photographic editorial content one encounters in Hustler -- other than the obvious picks, the lists appear to have been authored by a random-name generator. But several inclusions and omissions stimulated interesting conversation.

On the Republican side, Christine Toretti's listing seems stale; a salute to whomever misspelled Glen Meakem's name; and it is always nice to see InsolvenCity Mayor Emeritus Tom Murphy's former fundraiser, Leslie Gromis Baker, mentioned.

On the Democratic side, Ravenstahl/Onorato handler John Verbanac -- a Republican -- made the cut. This seems attributable more to the lack of insight that left Dave Matter, Dave Malone, the Goodrich boys and the Zappala empire off the list than to any legitimate conclusion that Verbanac belongs on a list of influential Democrats.

Listing Kevin Kinross -- a one-trick pony whose horse has not yet proven ready for the top tracks -- while omitting Lazar Palnick (center of photograph, at the right hand of Cliff Levine) is flat-out silly.

Most insiders seemed unimpressed, but nonetheless fascinated, by the lists. If nothing else, the lists spawned some great jokes, none of which will be repeated here.

UPDATE: No jokes, or off-the-record revelations, but a few observations:

Chris Doherty's campaign for lieutenant governor appears strong. People seem interested, and he delivers on substantive policy.

Tom Corbett excites no one, but no one is prepared to cross him publicly (or discuss the Ramaley verdict) in a party that defers to authority and money. Reminiscent of the greased-rail locomotive that brought George Bush Jr. out of Texas. Let's hope this version doesn't include an invasion and botched occupation of West Virginia.

Mary Beth Buchanan's political future does not appear to exist.

Democratic gubernatorial discussions consist mainly of hollow expressions of confidence in public, nervous (almost neurotic) handicapping in more private settings.

Can anyone explain why Democrats attend the Pennsylvania Society weekend? The Society tolerates Democrats solely when it is time to meet hotel room and catering guarantees. And even if Democrats break the Republican grip on the Society's neck, why not insist that the annual event become a Pittsburgh-Philadelphia-Hershey rotation? A 'buy Pennsylvania' campaign sounds bulletproof.
