I don't believe this story. I haven't seen it on CNN so therefore I know it is not true.

"Walker's daughter, Monique Walker Hill, pleaded guilty to filing false tax returns in the case. She has not been sentenced."

How nice... he dragged his daughter into it. What a peach of a guy.

I think this guy's corruption caused his son Champ Walker to lose his bid for Congress in a seat gerrymandered for him by his Dad.

Wonder if he's going to a real federal prison, or one of the Club Feds like where I used to work?

A 10-year sentence makes him ineligible for a minimum-security prison.

Walker stole at least $425,000 from a charity he created and bilked newspaper advertisers out of another $200,000, according to a sentencing report being used to help determine how much time he would serve in prison.

Charles Walker is black, and as the owner of a weekly newspaper, obtained advertising revenue from major retailers by political/racial pressure and inflated circulation figures, among other crimes. This makes two down and one to go for Augusta, GA. First was Robin Williams (no relation to the comedien), an ex state house representative (R) who bilked the local mental health facility with numerous schemes and kickbacks. Next up will be Linda Shrenko, past state superintendent for schools (R), who raided that institution for personal gain and to finance a run for governor.

I don't think so, but I will check CNN....let's see...

"French PM: No riots, just 'social unrest'"
"Blizzard shuts parts of Dakotas, Nebraska"
"Goss: CIA knows 'a good deal more' about bin Laden"
I know it is here somewhere.
"Ex-Powell aide: Bush 'too aloof' on post-war planning"
"Vatican issues gay policy document"
"999 executions and counting"
Nope. Can't find it. I'll keep trying.

Of course you only hear about the guy in San Diego because he's a Republican.

Wow! A 5-term Senate Majority leader and not a peep in the MSM. The Pubbie from San Diego was carried by local (Austin) news. A picture of the con:
