Shawn Clark and the Theft of New Jersey Union Funds.

Joe Ryan, "Parties Are Over as Trial Starts for Ex-Union Official," in The Star Ledger, May 5, 2010, at p. A1.

"Amid thumping music and twirling dancers, the former labor union official [and Democrat-connected power-broker, Shawn Clark,] dropped $65,000 in seven years at go-go bars across New Jersey. On average, prosecutors say, he hit clubs once or twice each week, buying pints of beer, bottles of chardonnay and shots of liquor chased by fizzy energy drinks at places like Johnny A's Hitching Post in Paterson, Double D's in Morristown and Pure Go Go in Manville. Some days he spent more than $1,000."

The trouble is that this was union money that Mr. Clark was "dropping." Strangely, more than one of these establishments has been described as mafia fronts, allegedly. ("New Jersey's Connected Pimps, Prostitutes, and New York's 'Pay-For-Luv-Guv.'")

What other expenses he incurred as an appointee and "good buddy" of the likes of Jon Corzine and "Slim Jim" McGreevey (How's your Israeli sailor, Jimbo?) is difficult to say. Allegations of mafia connections are denied by this so-called "labor leader." ("New Jersey's Mafia Culture in Law and Politics.")

"Clark, 45, of Branchburg is charged in a 15-count indictment with conspiracy and embezzling $85,000 from local 455 of the International Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners in Sommerville. If convicted[,] he faces up to five years in prison."

The disgusting spectacle of politicking at the most soiled Supreme Court in America is piling more shit on New Jersey's legal system. ("New Jersey's Feces-Covered Supreme Court.")

Justice Benjamin Wallace is not going to get reappointed. Democrats in the Senate say they won't vote on Christie's nominee to the tribunal, a corporate trouble shooter ("fixer" or "janitor" as opposed to a "real lawyer"), named Anne Patterson who is "all dressed-up with nowehere to go." Chivalry is dead in Trenton. ("We don't know from nothing" and "Judges Protect Child Molesters in Bayonne, New Jersey.")

If reappointed Wallace would have to retire in about two years, at age 70. Justice Wallace, famous for an alleged marijuana habit which he denies, I am sure, wants to stay on the state payroll -- especially, with all the doubts about pension funds. Who can blame him? The money for your retirment may not be there, Mr. Wallace, not even enough to buy weed.

Christie wants to send the message to the junior legislature in the Supreme Court's chambers that is connected to the Democrat-mafia machine that reforms are needed. I agree with Christie, much as I dislike Republicans.

The N.J. Supreme Court's disgraceful condoning of censorship at these blogs, I believe, by persons affiliated with OAE officials (how's it going, John?) should be one indication of what I hesitate to call the "judicial reasoning" of the likes of Stuart Rabner or the brain-dead moron, Jaynee LaVecchia. Did somebody say HIP? ("Law and Ethics in the Soprano State" and "Jaynee LaVecchia and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")

This is not about mere agreement or disagreement with particular decisions -- notice how quickly "errors" will now be inserted in my writings, again! -- but it is a result of humiliation and disgust as the only sane reactions to the gross incompetence and corruption of a state tribunal dismissed, everywhere, as "beholden to the Democrat power structure" (i.e., the mob) in the putrid Garden State.

Some changes are desperately needed. Each day that the cover-up continues, Mr. Rabner, is a further DEFECATION on your judicial robes. Have you no sense of decency, Mr. Rabner? ("Stuart Rabner and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")
