Gay foe Bruno indicted on federal corruption charges


(Albany, New York) Once the second most powerful man in New York State, former New York state Senate leader Joseph Bruno has been indicted on federal corruption charges.

Bruno, a Republican, retired from the Legislature in July after more than a dozen years leading the Senate.

An eight-count indictment by the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of New York accuses Bruno of using his office to defraud the people of New York from 1993 through at least 2006.

Court papers allege he received $3 million in payments from people and businesses seeking state and union contracts.

Following a court appearance he blamed the investigation on his political foes.

1. Should really be "Anti-Gay Foe," not "Gay Foe," shouldn't it? n/t

2. Yeah, unless Bruno is gay, but he's not, just corrupt "allegedly."

4. Not sure...

If I fight against anti-gay people wouldn't that make me an anti-gay foe? It's a "nudge" word, I guess. You can push it in any direction you want.

5. If Bruno were your gay friend, it would imply he is your friend, who is gay.

If Bruno were your gay foe, it would imply he was your foe, who is gay

6. A double negative is a positive, true.

A gay foe, is different than a foe of gays.


Oh my gosh, this finally made me laugh, I can't write foe again.
