3 TOP SPITZER AIDS TO BE QUESTIONED BY DA (time to probe Spitzer's cheesy election tactics)
NY POST ^ | November 12, 2007 | FREDRIC U. DICKER

--SNIP--Peter Pope, Spitzer's policy director, will be questioned about the role he played along with Spitzer Counsel and the governor's first deputy secretary, in a statement signed by Spitzer aide Darren Dopp July 22......The Commission on Public Integrity determined Dopp's testimony appeared to contradict his sworn statement. (Dopp is under investigation for possible perjury.)

During Spitler's 1998 AG campaign, he indignantly denied allegations by his GOP opponent, Dennis Vacco (a top-notch pro-life conservative), that Spitler's wealthy father had provided millions in loans to his AG campaign.

Candidate Spitzer insisted he was using only his own money (family members are limited by law to $110,000 in total contributions) and accused Vacco of "smearing" his father.

Not until he'd actually taken office did Spitzer admit that Dennis Vacco had been correct, after all. In fact, it turned out Spitzer, despite earlier denials, had done the exact same thing during his unsuccessful 1994 run for AG.

NOTE WELL: Now how did the loving Spitzer family convert all that money to sonny's election? The altruistic Spitzer family runs a "do-good foundation."

The IRS has noted that some foundations are prime money laundering vehicles that use phony accounting and fake line items like "LEGAL, CONSULTING AND ADMIN FEES" that are tax evasion schemes. Some foundations also put ghost employees on the payroll to skim off monies.

Sadly, that is the actual headline. Is proofreading that difficult?

You know, if I lived in New York, I would have voted against Spitzer based solely on his looks. He actually LOOKS evil and insane.

can Soares be trusted? Horowitz discusses him at some length in Shadow Party as ultra-leftist.

It’s getting pretty close to the time where E. Mess is going to have to testify under oath. Either that or resign. Liberals can’t have it both ways, if Nixon had to go for this type of activity then so too does one of their own.

And here's his handmaiden.

Hill's gonna rue the day she posed for that pic.

I don’t think he’s gonna resign——self-absorbed liberals always blame somebody else for their mistakes.

To liberals, “feeling superior” is the be-all and end-all.

They’re so “perfect,” it can’t ever be THEIR fault.

Pathetic isn't it? Get a load of this latest breath of fresh hypocrisy from a Spitzer apologist:

Troopergate not a real issue, so let's move ahead

As a taxpaying citizen of this state, I don't care. Troopergate isn't a real issue. It's just a political one. And it continues to have momentum only because state Republicans and the right-leaning media are savoring it like an all-day sucker. Despite investigations by the attorney general's office last summer and by the Albany district attorney this fall, which concluded that neither Bruno nor Spitzer did anything illegal, efforts to keep this scandal alive continue.

Of course we all know that if Spitzer had an (R) after his name instead this writer and the newspaper it's printed in would be saying the same thing, as in let's move along now, nothing to see here, c'mon. It's "opinions" like this that make it more imperative than ever that Troopergate be honestly investigated and without the partisan whitewash, especially since the desire to move along has become so curiously intense on the part of the liberal mouthpieces.

Let's do a little 501 C (3) Arithmetic. Assets $35 Million. I think it safe to assume that the assets generate at least 10%, tax-free after "expenses." (Probably much more) $3.5 of that free $3.5 mIllion, about $600 Thousand went for "Doing Good."

Where o where, Mr. Tax Man, did the other $3 Million go? Who got the "Consulting Fees?" So many questions, so little time.
