NPOV issues[edit]

This article has some serious NPOV issues. This is someone with a quarter-century career of public service, and yet the vast majority of his article focuses on a single scandal. I recognize that this was the material that was most easily Googled, but the result is something that reads like an attack page with a stub wrapped around it. We desperately need to expand the remaining sections here. Phil Sandifer 15:26, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps someone could use [1] or [2] to do this expansion? Phil Sandifer 13:32, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes one could argue the scandal section has undue weight, if it remains an issue use that template instead. NPOV template removed. - Roy Boy 23:34, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Revertion of IP edit[edit]

I reverted this edit because it deleted critical material, which was well sourced (at least in regard to the scandal), without any attempt to improve it. To say that the scandal is only a small part of his life, should mean that the material should be added to redress the balance, not wholesale deletion of critical material (including the comment that he had only briefly worked as a lawyer, which it is hard to see as being as "semi-libelous").Grahamec 02:40, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
