Follow the money, people.

Hiding behind a screen of law firms doesn't really hide it THAT much.

The info at the bottom of this page is particularly telling (#24)

And yes, aware of it or not, he's taken money from "them" too.
The freak fronts are cycling cash into both Dem candidates, not so much the Rethugs, for reasons we've been over before that don't really seem to make sense.

BTW.

I've been a bit busy, the names Morkhoven, "Pascal" or Victor Hissel will, I figure, mean nothing to you, but lets just say the former lawyer of the monster of chaleroi, and a known participant will not be representing any more of the cadre for at least a year, and here's for hoping they disbar the bastard.

It's nice having a real life princess on your side sometimes, does wonders for slicing through red tape and obfuscatory BS.

If they'd cleaned house instead of covering up, this wouldn't be haunting us so badly - but at least we bagged down "candyman" Camolli, so any pipeline/contacts via the US are still confined to North Carolina.

If you want the details you can ask, but the summary is a couple more predator "heavies" out of commission, rather than just lookers, lurkers and opportunists busted for PR value - very bad people, not going away for nearly long enough.

You know, I have often wondered if I ran for office, if there are groups / individuals whose money I would refuse to take, and why.

I don't know. I am not sure I would refuse a contribution from anyone, as long as I don't sell my votes to anyone. Ya know what I mean?

Cause the way I see it, what is the difference between taking money from the KKK and a racist individual who I don't know is racist?

I am conflicted.

Problem with that, is that they expect something for it, and have ways of making you comply, like financing your opponent or even creating one out of thin air and buying him a media blitz while paying off the media to shut you out.

It's a common theme, and the primary reason we needed to form a political PAC and use the same lowdown, dirty tactics even in the furtherance of an agenda that should be a slamdunk for any decent human being... but then again, we are talking about politicians here.

Big Pharma, those who benefit from predatory lending and Usury, and AIPAC can hide it all they want, they bought this guy, and he *will* do their bidding, or they'll just have all of Congress they can pay off sandbag him while paying off the media to grill him like a cheap hamburger - just you watch.
