More Democrat Role Models
S
heila Dixon is the first woman to serve as mayor of a major northeastern city - Baltimore - and a black at that! What an opportunity for role-modeling! What a chance to bring lots of little Democrats into the fold! What an opportunity to be just another Blogojevich:
A grand jury indicted Baltimore Mayor Sheila Dixon on 12 counts of perjury, theft and fraud on Friday, saying she used gift cards intended for poor families to buy herself a fur coat and other presents. …
The indictment says Dixon received gift cards to the Best Buy and Target stores from two unnamed real estate developers. The Baltimore Sun newspaper reported that one of the developers was Ronald Lipscomb, her former boyfriend, who was indicted on Wednesday on charges of bribery.
In December 2005, one of the developers gave her 20 cards, of which Dixon used 19 to buy a camcorder, a Sony PlayStation 2 and other electronic devices “for her personal benefit,” the indictment says.
A year later, she received more gift cards for distribution to needy families but used them to buy more electronics, clothes and other items for herself, the indictment says. (Reuters/Breitbart)
Let’s see what we’ve got here. Oh, it’s that again! A democrat elected on promises to help the poor, only to abuse the poor for personal gain. Dog bites man all the way.

Greetings:It’s too bad the First Woman (Black) Mayor’s indictment didn’t come down last month. She could have given the First Woman Astronaut to put her tool bag into orbit a run for my First Woman award.
