Panic time at the White House?

Dana Mathewson

Can't count on this in Nov. 2012, but this is good news now. http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2011/09/panic-time-at-the-white-house.php

The last two paragraphs are fun, and you might not encounter them anywhere else:

"But wait, the hits keep coming! The [Wall Street] Journal front page also updates a story I’ve been following for a while out of California. Seems the Democratic Party’s state treasurer has embezzled more than $1 million in campaign funds from candidate treasuries—perhaps several million. She’s been doing it for years, apparently, and party leaders simply ignored red flags and $190,000 in fines for reporting errors from the state agency that oversees campaign spending accounts. I can imagine the treasurer’s courtroom defense now: I was only doing privately what my party’s office holders do to the public on a daily basis—redistributing wealth.


"And to top it all off, Al Gore’s “24 Hours of Reality” climate change telethon begins tonight. I’m sure the White House is thrilled to have Gore back up in everyone’s face. Must-flee TV."
