The level of idiocy or dishonesty (you decide) in the media regarding New Jersey is incredible. I just read a column denouncing the trial of senator Bob Menendez of New Jersey as a Republican plan to gain a senate seat. You see, if Menendez is convicted and must resign, a Republican, Chris Christie, gets to appoint the replacement senator.
Think how idiotic this is. First, Menendez was indicted by the Obama Justice department. The GOP would must have been super cagey to get Obama to take steps to get rid of a Democrat. Second, Menendez only must resign if he is convicted. That means Menendez must go only if he committed a felony. Again, the GOP must have been super cagey to get Menendez to break the law.
The truth is that we have a Democrat senator who is accused by a Democrat DOJ of committing a felony. If the charge holds up, the senator has to go. It's not a political plot. It's called enforcing the law, something the media just does not seem to understand.
