  1. Good ol’ Todd, using his office to act on his behalf. Once again abusing his power and wasting our tax dollars to his benefit, and his benefit alone.

  2. Surely with his extensive experience in the law Rokita is familiar with the phrase “caveat emptor,” which literally means “let the buyer beware.” It serves as a cautionary principle in commerce, reminding buyers like Rokita to assess the quality and suitability of a product before making a purchase. Apparently his due diligence fell short of what was needed.
