On the Bulgers

The Bulger story from Boston may become more intriguing if not more startling.  Columnist and radio personality Howie Carr has some advice for his nemesis in today’s Boston Herald. When he was on their trail years ago, Bulger’s gang threatened to kill Carr and, he reminded listeners last week, corruption in law enforcement left him with nowhere safe to turn.  His books, The Brothers Bulger and Hitman, are available as downloads or by ordering from Amazon.

Instapundit highlights this post from Hub Blog.  Assistance the murderous thugs and their allies received from powerful political figures of both parties retains the power to astonish.  William Weld discredited himself by appointing wretched Billy Bulger to lead the University of Massachusetts. Mitt Romney knocked him out of that lofty perch.
