More "progressive" malfeasance

If you weren't really sure how totally inept and/or corrupt democratic governance actually is, you need look no further than yet another model of said....

This time it's Jefferson County Alabama.

Why is Jefferson County in the news?

Alabama's largest county appears headed for the biggest municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history, a $3.2 billion mess created by the nation's credit crunch and a colossal, corruption-riddled sewer project.

Politicians in Jefferson County — which has 658,000 residents and includes the state's biggest city, Birmingham — are struggling to find a way out of the jam, but they have mostly abandoned talk of raising taxes and fees after running into fierce opposition at raucous public meetings.

On Thursday, with their options running out, the county commissioners all but threw up their hands and decided to let the voters weigh in on Election Day with a nonbinding referendum on whether to file for bankruptcy.

"The entire nation is watching to see how we handle this," said Jeff Sewell, an assistant county attorney. "This is a question of character as well as one of finance."

I've been doing this blog for almost two years and I still have yet to get a comment from a liberal who will defend the type of governance democrats supply? Is there a liberal out there with the balls to try and defend this malfeasance?
