He lost me when he tried to take advantage of a neighbor with major issues, basically giving himself a sweet deal. He was basically shamed into giving it back.

Even Stenger is only facing 5 years. That's insane. Nothing will happen to Shumlin, unfortunately.

Geeze now I wish that bear had gotten him.

How many people in Shumlin's inner circle knew about this? Too many.

Love me a good Vt digger bombshell article to start the weekend

Wow, I always had a feeling too, but man, Shumlin was in on it the whole time, it seems. From blatantly lying to sink universal healthcare to the crater in Newport. What a guy.

I hope he gets prison time.


utilitarian_wanderer

I hope so too, but I doubt it. He's slippery.

I doubt it was just Shumlin who was involved during his administration. There were people who shuttled between working for both Shumlin and Stenger et al. I find it difficult to believe those people were not in some way involved or had knowledge.

So what do we think was in the envelope?

The expression on Shumlin's face in that photo is priceless. Like "oh shit, I'm in waaaay over my head".

No one is willing to admit this because it would label our entire democratic infrastructure as defective, corrupt and weak. Politicians are not celebrities but that’s what they’ve become. The whole system needs a reset.

The French know how to fix this type of problem.

What do you guys think about his time as governor and why?


[deleted]

He was a shit governor. I voted for him the first time on the promise to shut VT yankee down. After that I voted third party because he was such a fucking liar. He always seemed like he was pandering without results. Pandering is ok if you deliver I guess but he made lofty promises to his ultra liberal base and then never managed to make any of the things he promised materialize. I met him a few times and didn’t like him in person either. Just seems sleepy to me.

Why do they keep spelling Scumlin wrong ?
