I remember that story. Even if he did double bill some air fare (I doubt it), he more than covered it by returning the leftover money from his House office budget every year. And by not taking a federal pension.majorspark;1384732 wrote:So Ron Paul is double dipping into the taxpayers pocket and West is donating leftover campaign funds to his own charity.
As for the Ron Paul article "The most corrupt member of congress" , I almost stopped right there. When the author attempts to deceive right from the start with a title that is grossly inaccurate in defining that accusation, you can bet its agenda driven.

No, it hasn't. It might have regained it's nominal amount, but those dollars don't go nearly as far as they did.Footwedge;1384796 wrote:the S & P has regained it's value.

Wedge...the link you provided shows that West has done nothing illegal or even shady for that matter, provided his foundation is truly a charity...and there is NO indication that it is not.

West is still an idiot. The Republican version of Jim Traficant, only more stupid.

West has a better shaped head than Traficant ...stlouiedipalma;1384903 wrote:West is still an idiot. The Republican version of Jim Traficant, only more stupid.
As a Democrat I liked Traficant .... I meet him in a business deal (little illegal but I made money and he protected his ass) but other that, he was a very nice individual
