44 arrests and a bizarre kidney trafficking scam notwithstanding, Illinois is unwilling to cede its corruption crown to New Jersey. "With 42 agents, the Windy City outpaces New York and Los Angeles and is second in the nation only to Washington, D.C., in the number of FBI agents investigating public corruption. As for Newark, N.J., it has one-third fewer corruption agents than Chicago, according to the FBI," proudly notes the Chicago Sun-Times. Plus, they've got that crazy ex-governor who is spending every second before they lock him away on the television and doing book signings. Seems like a decent point! Louisiana, you have anything to say here?

Meh, number of FBI agents as a mark of corruption is like how lists use professor pay as a mark of the best colleges. All this means is that IL and NJ are really BAD at being corrupt.
Who would want a kidney from New Jersey?
Hey, those were ISRAELI kidneys. Jersey, as always, was just collected the "finder's fee."
In a likely obvious sign of West Coast insecurity, I'm finding it hard to believe that San Francisco and Sacramento don't make the "crazy corrupt" cut. Or maybe our politicians aren't evil, per se, just dumb?
(Also, Texas should merit notice, except there corruption is institutionalized and generally legal.)
I can't figure out if Nancy Pelosi is evil or dumb, but that woman drives me fucking crazy.
We deny each and every scurrilous allegation you've made here, and welcome an open hearing at which we will have the opportunity to present our side of the story.
I need more AAA batteries for my ankle bracelet, btw, if you're going out anytime soon.
Sure thing! I can also buy you a Commercial Driver's License on my way to the Jewel if you want one.
