All well and good to have a

Governor who has been trying to clean up the mess at the Probations Department all along, nonetheless his proposed legislation has languished untouched and unreported in the Great-n-General Court since January 2010.
This is in spite of critical reports from the State Auditor's office, much discussion in the press, and now this Spotlight series in the Globe and still the legislature doesn't act.
Oh but watch em' jump thru hoops of fire if you are a lobbyist for casino gambling, all that pernicious shit gets reported out of committee at lightspeed plus.
My recommendation is that the lege get of their fat asses and get the Governor's bill passed on the quick, but then Humble Elias has little pull with that crowd.
Meanwhile kudos to the Boston Globe for a expose' on government malfeasance that lives up to the hype and covers all the details in sequence. Despite all, the Globe is still a paper of substance, they don't howl and snark like the Herald they just get the job done regardless.
