REFORMERS COURT PLUTOCRATS BY TELLING LEGISLATORS TO KEEP OUT OF REFORM MOVEMENT
In a touching display of solidarity despite rival political ambitions, leaders of the movement to reform Pennsylvania government (ideally reform it out of existence) made clear to the Speaker's Commission on Legislative Reform that they should keep their hands off. As THE CAD told me when we were both in his suana at his vast estate near Buckingham Palace, "Those greedy legislators want our campaign contributions, and they are not going to get them."
Russ Diamond scored plutocratic points by telling the legislators that no campaign contributions should be limited, and only a constitutional convention should limit legislative terms or impose term limits. In doing so, Diamond showed a zest for protecting the reformers' turf and big bucks campaign contributions from legislative interlopers. "Diamond has all the skills and savvy to be a great Governor," THE CAD commented.
Legislative Boss Gene Stilp was scheduled to testify, but did not show up. "A great move, " said THE GUZZLER during our recent high-stakes for petty cash poker game. "He's now the boss of the whole legislature. Why should he waste his time on a single stinking committee? It's beneath his dignity."
Democracy Rising guru and sordition advocate Tim Potts didn't even allow himself to be scheduled. He just didn't show up. A really principled move from a principled man, I thought. He wants democracy to rise and rise until it rises out of sight and out of mind with unelected delegates to a constitutional convention and a gradual phase-out of elections for the random selection of the sordition system. One should not not legitimize things you want to drive out of existence, I believe.
Fellow plutocrat Bill Scranton also did not show up. "It's time to put the legislators in their place, and keep them there," said THE CAD. "Scranton ought to publicly promise that he will not meet with any legislator under any circumstance if elected Governor. If the legislators want to communicate him, they should go to Boss Stilp and have Stilp come to him. This would both fit in with Scranton's reclusive personality, unify Scranton with Stilp, and put those legislative pigs greedy for programs to help their constituents completely on the defensive."
All In All, the hearing was a great day for the legislative reform movement, enabling it to preserve it turf and its loot and its power and its long-range strategical genius. "We are going to make the Pennsylvania government live up to Grover Norquist's vision of being small enough to flush down a toilet," said the Guzzler while drinking $10,000 a bottle rare red wine. "We are winning the battle against governmental wasteful spending on the poor and the middle class," he said, before departing in his private jet for a weekend jaunt to the French Riviera.
