Kentucky GOPer sentenced to 7+ years

The Republican Party isn't called the party of scandal for nothing.

One of many recent scandals plaguing the Kentucky GOP appears to be drawing to a close, as former Morgan County Judge-Executive Tim Conley has been sentenced to 7 years and 3 months in prison for extorting kickbacks from a contractor. The punishment is the maximum under advisory guidelines, and Conley will have to serve at least 85% of it.

Conley was defeated for reelection by a 3-to-1 margin by his Democratic challenger.

See, you can beat these clowns if you really try - instead of just trying to "understand" them.
