Explaining his shot at the Post, he added, “I’m just saying that... I wanted to make certain I maintained the good name, honor and integrity that I’ve enjoyed for 50 years — and that the person that’s evaluating me is the committee and no the New York Post;.”

Telling the truth about lefty corruption is now a “smear campaign”

Meanwhile, another ACORN office is busted:

“smear Campaign” just sounds like “I’m going to leave now so I can spend more time with my family”

How many times is Smear Campaign going to work?

That photo needs to be part of an RNC strategy. He will go to his grave hating the NY POST for publishing that classic image. BTW, nice fupa Charlie.
