"And why are you here on a conservative forum defending one of the scummiest guys around?"
Not defending him. Merely pointing out what I pointed out.
Said nothing about "balanced" giving, either.
Like you, I oppose sleazy operators from any party. I have watched quite a few, from local on up.
Being corruptable is almost a pre-requisite for politics.
Okay. peace.
The article in this thread talked about how Burkle had always been a loyal Republican and never before voted for a Democrat. I find that hard to believe. Did he give money to Leo McCarthy and then vote for his opponent? Same for Gray Davis and Feinstein? It defies credibility. That was all I was really trying to say in my original post.
