[New Jersey] Republicans had argued for the e-mails' release, since they were while the union and state were negotiating.

In other words, since our policy proposals aren't worth diddly let's try to personally embarrass Governor Corzine.

I'd say banging the head of the union you are negotiating with and giving her loads of cash might create quite conflict of interest.

jen you are better at the extra extra, ect. than billy parker. his are pretty boring i have to say. i read the papers, so i look forward to "extra" things i don't see in news. parker lists a lot of boring new stories. school him in your ways.
