The Troubling Case of an Attorney General Who Lied
2016-08-21
A good Sunday morning read about Kathleen Kane, the now ex-Attorney General from Pennsylvania who is about to be sentenced for perjury. The article gets into the importance of swearing an oath to tell the truth, and why perjury is punished so harshly.

#2  ...The real point here is this question from TFA:

"How could a state's top law enforcement official be so dumb?"

The real answer in this case gets missed, though it must be said that the author did a great job on the article. The fact - ugly and inescapable - is that Ms Kane is, was, and will always be a Democrat politician first, a power seeker/holder second, and a lawyer sworn to uphold the law last. Reviewing this case leaves no way to escape the conclusion that she felt her first duties were to the Party and herself, not necessarily in that order depending on the situation.
