Democrat Party is Broke – Wants US Taxpayers to Fund Their 2016 Convention
Gateway Pundit ^ | 12/14/15 | Jim Hoft

The party of handouts wants a taxpayer handout. Democrat National Committee Chairperson Debbie Wasserman Schultz drafted a plan demanding US taxpayers fund the DNC convention next year.

Already struggling with finances, the Democratic Party has drafted a plan to have taxpayers help pay about $20 million for next summer’s nominating convention, reversing a change Congress approved just a year ago.

Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who is also a congresswoman from Florida, has drafted a bill to restore money that both parties used to receive from the federal government to help defray the costs of running their quadrennial conventions.

The Congressional Budget Office revealed the move in a letter released Friday, which said Ms. Wasserman Schultz’s proposal to tap a presidential campaign fund would likely mean each party could get about $20 million in taxpayer money to help with costs.

For once, Americans need to say “NO” to these thieving little bass turds and send them to the corner. Have them stand on their heads and stack BBs. Money stolen from MY paycheck should not be used to coronate a Marxist Queenie. KMA ‘RATS!!! You want a convention? Pay for it out of YOUR OWN pockets! They are full of stolen money anyway. Lowlifes.

Another example that leftism always fails economically. ALWAYS.

“F them”

I don’t normally curse but I second that statement and would add “the horse (Jackass) the rode in on as well”

They should call James Riati in Indonesia who owns Lippo Group. He has loads of cash

I’m sure they could get a deal on facilities in Cleveland or Detroit for their convention.

I wonder if East Cleveland has a contvention center?of maybe an abandoned Y?
