    Really dont have much a problem with the fact he tried to have someone who he believed was abusing a relative roughed up. I think most people would do the same in that type of situation.

    The part i do have a problem with here, is that a State GOP senate leader has such good Mafia connections that he can ask them to do it for him... I mean if that doesnt say he is in bed with them, i don't know what does.

      booked on a misdemeanor charge>>>>

      wow. Doing that is just a misdemeanor? I agree with you, Aidenag, that many would want to do something about a family member being abused. But his Mafia connections, given his status in government, is disconcerting.

          Couldn't the senator have called on the Sopranos instead?
