Another lovely Dem.


What the hell does party affiliation have to do with it? You partisan pricks are so ignorant.
If you wanna paint her as "one of them" and chastise an entire group then don't make it about her being a Dem...as if Republicans aren't crooked too.
Instead you should say, ANOTHER LOVELY PISCES!! You'd probably be more accurate and sound less stupid.

To everyone coming @ me and demanding a season six of The Wire about Catherine Pugh, her ridiculous kiddie-books-as-shakedown and the rank complicity of Baltimore medical systems and charities and such in this citywide grift, let's be clear:

Full stop. No. I don't do half-hour.

Just yesterday Gov Hogan helped Gov Christie sell his book to the fine people of Maryland.

LESSON LEARNED: If you want to sell lots of Books, consider becoming an elected official.

she was on the board of directors of a hospital and had the hospital buy her book. It’s called self dealing


If you want to sell a lot of books, just buy a lot of books!

Genius capitalism at the School of Baltimore...
