shocker!!! pat buchanan defends christine o'donnell

[spanone]

'there may be a sillier charge i've heard, but i can't think of it right now'....pat said he didn't know if paying your rent with campaign funds is illegal.....

....says if the fbi and federal prosecuters are looking into her paying her rent with campaign funds..'they don't have much to do'

something tells me that if this was a democrat being investigated, pat may feel somewhat differently.....just guessing

shocked i tell you

1. That was really pathetic

Buchanan is a first rate scum bag.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

2. Did he call it a witchhunt?

:rofl:

[Angry Dragon]

3. Standard republican mind set

Every penny they can get in their slimy hands they figure they can do anything they want with it, to hell with laws, laws are for everyone else

4. She should have used the Alan Keyes method...

He paid himself a salary for performing the duties of a candidate. Lived off that for several elections.

5. If she's too clueless to know FEC rules when it comes to how you can spend campaign fund...

then seriously, do we want to elected to an office? Hell I wouldn't want someone that stupid to clean my house or feed my pets.

7. I suspect at least four of her five treasurers knew the FEC rules

The phrase "What we've got here is a failure to communicate" comes to mind.

10. Which is why they didn't last long as her campaign treasurer

From what I've read, several of them warned her she was not using the money appropriately. Then again some of them left because they weren't getting paid.

8. She'd probably sell your stuff, and your pets to a testing lab.

The house would be 'clean' all right.

6. If he sees nothing wrong, I wonder how much

of his personal expenses he has paid for with campaign funds from Presidential runs in his past?

[LuvNewcastle]

9. Sarah Palin probably told her

that would be okay. I think that's why Sarah plans to run in 2012. She'll either win the election or she will have millions in campaign contributions to loot. Either way, she's going to win.
