  7. No honor among thieves or corrupt politicians

    This week, Del. Tiffany Alston ofPrince George's Countywas convicted of stealing $800 from the General Assembly to pay an aide in her private law firm. The offense is a misdemeanor, but it is directly related to her duties in office — in fact, she was also convicted of official misconduct — and as such falls under a provision of the Maryland constitution that triggers automatic suspension from the General Assembly. Nonetheless, Ms. Alston stands to be a pivotal figure in the legislature next month if Gov.Martin O'Malleycalls a special session to consider the expansion of gambling. The key issue is whether to allow a casino in Prince George's County, and as a member of that delegation (not to mention someone who has shown a flair for the dramatic), her vote could be crucial one way or the other.

  21. City Council does its job

    MayorStephanie Rawlings-Blakesays the City Council is putting Baltimore residents at risk from increased crime, among other calamities, because of its preliminary decision to cut about $6 million from her $2.3 billion budget proposal. She has called the effort, led by Council PresidentBernard C."Jack" Young, to divert some money into increased funding for recreation centers, youth employment and after school programs "unadvisable, unworkable and irresponsible." Indeed, there is an opportunity cost associated with many of the council's proposed cuts — if not so dire a consequence as the mayor predicts. But the council should nonetheless stick to its guns. It is supposed to be a fiscal check and balance to the mayor's extraordinary budgeting authority, and it's time the council started acting like it.
