"Rep. Reynolds' NRCC received $100,000 from disgraced Rep. Foley in July, after he learned about Foley's inappropriate emails with minors..."

Anyone who supports republicans is worthless.

10. Election Law question
Edited on Sun Oct-01-06 01:52 PM by Eric J in MN
Why didn't the limit of $26,700 apply?

The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE received $100,000 from "FOLEY, MARK VIA FRIENDS OF MARK FOLEY"

but the limit on donations to party committees is $26,700.

16. I don't know if I'm more offended by the bribe or by the low dollar figure
For a career breaking scandal in a tight election, I'd think quarter mil is rock bottom prices.

14. Grand Old Pedophiles! Absolutely nothing new here!

The theory is they use this to blackmail important people like legislators and other prominent leaders to go their way in voting controlling the military etc etc.


Got Fascism Yet?

15. Shit. Keep an eye on that Reynolds character.
Sure it's a bargain basement shake down this time. These velociraptors learn fast. And he's a hungry one, willing to use teenage boys as bait for his targets.

18. there was a character
Edited on Sun Oct-01-06 09:25 PM by themartyred
in the movie, "My Fellow Americans" with Jack Lemmon, named Reynolds, who get knocked off for knowing too much. I'd be worried about the Republicans in charge of Congress if I was him. They're SKEERY because this will expose them even further for being lazy gluttonous louses who use boys as pawns in Congress.
