3-15-12: “Do you know what today is? It is the one year anniversary since Congressman John Tierneys wife was released from jail. She got the gift of a 30-day sentence for aiding and abetting in the filing false tax return. How much money was involved? $10 million. Compare that to former Speaker Sal DiMasis 8 1/2 year sentence for accepting $65,000 kick-back. Chuck Turner got years for his preachers handshake. I think we can all agree that today is a good day for the Tierneys and they should be celebrating she is still not in jail!
I do have to mention that Congressman Tierney is still claiming he had no idea of what was going on! He had no clue even-though Mrs. Tierney was involved along with her son, father and two brothers.”
>>Today’s Question for Tierney
In Congress, John Tierney sits on the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform whos solemn responsibility is to hold government accountable to taxpayers, because taxpayers have a right to know what they get from their government.”
If Tierney didnt know what was going on under his nose in his own family, how can voters expect him to be a government watchdog?
How Could Tierney Not Know?
