Isn't it amazing? When Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr.was in office and wanted to initiate gambling, the politicians in Annapolis were morally opposed. Once a Democrat became governor, those objections suddenly disappeared.
As a result, millions of dollars were lost, and surrounding states benefited, while our taxes skyrocketed. Now too late, our greedy politicians need to pay a commission and have a special session of the legislature to further bilk Marylanders of their money.
This is what happens when greed and personal ambition override the public need. I wonder whether the residents of this state will ever wake up and realize how dangerous one party government is to each of us.
