HONESTY ABOUT DISHONESTY
Politics in the State of Louisiana are always colorful. The former governor of Louisiana has recently retired from politics. Few – even his friends – have considered him an honest man. He has numerous ties with the organized crime. He loves to gamble, drink and womanize. His annual “gambling winnings” for 1993 was $180,000.00 — what a “lucky” guy! He had his unique way of getting done whatever he needed or wanted done. David Duke, a former KKK member, also ran for governor and had a particularly interesting description of the former governor. He was quoted by National Public Radio as saying, “Governor Edwards is devoid of honesty, but at least he’s honest about it.”
