Because NOTHING Is More Important to a Politician...

Than publicity. Wisconsin Senate Minority Leader Janet Bewley involved in fatal crash

Not even public safety.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported on Monday that a reporting intern for the paper was on the phone with Bewley for a scheduled interview when the crash occurred. According to the Journal Sentinel, Bewley told him she had just had cataract surgery.

So that didn't work out too well, doing an interview and driving a car at the same time.

The stupid thing is she decided in February that she wasn't going to run for reelection. So why do an interview, and drive a car? Why not push the interview? Oh, yeah; Publicity.

Which for reasons I can't understand brought up memories of "Vanity: My favorite sin," from The Devil's Advocate. (Hat tip to EBL.)
