"Speaking of ethics violations, itsn't it about time someone was charged under the Hatch Act for the NEA fiasco?"

Shhh. Serious, important stories that are politically incorrect must not be reported on this lefty site.

VERBOTEN!

"the tone of the article seems to be 'Ha Ha, you took down ACORN but some right-wing icons are going down too',"

Yes, the predictable childish part. No surprise there. At least it exposes more wrongdoing; that's good.

Now I just hope ACORN and the like don't still get involved in lib Dem Census mischief next year.

Somewhere, Leroy Grumman is spinning in his grave. A once great company picked over by corporate jackals.

Yeah we wouldn't want poor people to have one hope in hell for representation in Congress or have any viable redress of government. Those with money can just hire new lobbyists. Those without, just….go….fish.

Although the tone of the article seems to be “Ha Ha, you took down ACORN but some right-wing icons are going down too”, I am happy that any companies acting fraudulently will be punished. This shouldn't be a left-vs-right issue.

I wonder how many Republicans would also go down with Geitner and Rangel?

oh no doubt some as well as more Democrats. I'd love to see someone actually keep the promise to drain the swamp instead of pump more filth in it, and I don't care if its a Republican or democrat who does it.

So no more paychecks for Tim Geitner and Charlie Rangel too I suppose?

If this law were to destroy the Military-Industrial Complex and a good chunk of Corporate America, I would consider it a bargain,,,

Oh yeah, that's exactly the same thing as contractors electrocuting American soldiers.

Google it.

Defense contractors have been getting bagged for 39 years now, ever since the first $300,000 toilet seat.

Yeah, they'll lose all future contracts, I'm sure.

Anyone who violates federal or state election, campaign finance or lobbying disclosure laws or filing a fraudulent form with any federal or state regulatory agency should recieve no federal money. So no more paychecks for Tim Geitner and Charlie Rangel too I suppose?

Sounds like a great law, let's start enforcing it… It'll be fun to listen to the squealing of Corporate America.

Anyone want to start a pool as to how long it will take this law to be repealed?

I give it 6 weeks…

Good article, Kat.
Thanks.

I'm all for getting the ACORN types as well as the Corporate types out of the politics business.
A level playing field would be nice for a change.
