Failing to report it as required counts as hiding in my book. And no it wasn’t his money, it was Goldman Sachs’ and Citicorp’s money. They took THEIR money and the LOANED it TO him, and he LOANED it to his campaign.

“Failing to report it as required counts as hiding in my book.”

Well you can put whatever you want in “your book”, but when people disclose things in public filings, saying they are hiding them is called a LIE.

“They took THEIR money and the LOANED it TO him, and he LOANED it to his campaign.”

Meh, it was a margin advance, secured against his stock portfolio. Everyone who has a brokerage account knows that is not the same as going to the bank, hat in hand, and applying for a loan.

He didn't fail to report it. He reported it to the Senate Ethics Committee, so he wasn't hiding it.

No, they gave him a loan against assets he already owned. And no, he did not LOAN it to his campaign - he GAVE it to his campaign. The campaign is not responsible to repay any of that money to Ted or to the bank. At least get your facts straight!
