Jim Greer, the former chairman of the Florida Republican Party, who's now facing felony charges for grand theft, fraud and money laundering, has a small favor to ask of Charlie Crist.

In a letter obtained by the St. Petersburg Times, Greer asks Crist -- a former political ally -- to return the $9,600 he and his wife gave to the Republican-turned-Independent's Senate campaign. Greer says he now needs th money "to defend myself and take care of my family."

Crist appointed Greer to his post as the head of the state party in 2007.

1. Hahahahahahaha - ha oh shit

Thanks for a great chuckle

[monmouth]

2. I'll bet that's what Crist said too...LOL...n/t

3. It wasn't "his" money if he stole it.

I'd like to see Crist tell him go go pound sand.


:rofl:

[gratuitous]

4. Did Greer write anyone else?

I'll bet he spent a lot of money in the last few years he wishes he had back now.

5. So Crist's choices are...

...to keep a donation from an alleged fraudster, or to donate to that fraudster's defense fund.

Nice.

6. I hope Greer gets the shaft, and charlie, well, charlie

is scared shitless of being out of a taxpayer funded gig. I bet he could give boner a few tips on being tan, but I digress.

there's a county commissioner or county commissar, whos' wife somehow got a house given to here in Arkansas at mere pittance of $435,000.00. Mr commissar tells us "I don't poke my nose in my wifes business, and I don't know who it was that gave her the home and two boats and a shitload of other goodies. It's like Santa Claus and all that."


Floriduh is really wacked, totally skewed.

This is gonna be one hell of an election year.
