Colin McNickle, writing in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, says Dan Onorato has no business trying to score political points with the recent attempt by Attorney General Tom Corbett to expose anonymous bloggers.From Onorato's column:
The Allegheny County chief executive and Corbett's Democrat challenger for governor attempted to make some political hay out of the prosecutory misstep last week. He blabbed on and on about Corbett being "sorry" for getting "caught" and said it was the latest example of Corbett using his office "for political purposes."Read more at the newspaper's Web site.
Talk about the raven chiding blackness.
After all, it was Mr. Onorato who used every trick in the book, by hook or by crook, to shut down a public referendum on his tax on alcoholic beverages. And his legal machinations to subvert court order after court order to begin a property reassessment that was stalled and stalled again smacked of a political calculation directly linked to Onorato's gubernatorial bid. ...

Really Tony? Really? If you are going to call out Dan Onorato and accuse him of "every trick" and "hook and crook," wouldn't it make sense to offer examples to back up those accusations?
If you look at the two events- Corbett's prosecutorial misstep, and what happened here in Allegheny County, there is no similarity at all. This is a blatant attempt to shift the focus away from Corbett's latest blunder, and nothing more.
