'I've been robbed,' California lawmaker says

SacBee: Capitol Alert ^ | 9/4/11 | Dan Smith

"Robbed" is such a harsh term. They should refer to it as an "undocumented transfer of wealth", don't you think?

[Paladin2]

Liberation of excess funds.

Somebody has got to spread the wealth.

[Paladin2]

"I've Been Robbed."

Now the guy knows how the taxpayers feel.

[FlingWingFlyer]

One thing you can say about DemocRATS. If they see money, IT’S THEIRS! People should ALWAYS keep a close eye their money when DemocRATS are around. DemocRATS are obsessed with other people’s money.

[Seaplaner]

Clearly, (Democrat) Kinde Durkee merely confiscated some of (Democrat) Mister Solorio's excess wealth and spread it around to someone less fortunate among us (Democrat Kinde Durkee).

‘I’ve been robbed,’

---

Yeah that’s something you hear often here in Cali..we’ve all been robbed here

[Track9]

This is assuming he is not somehow complicit and hollering thief to divert attention.

[MrBambaLaMamba]

From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.

[org.whodat]

Yes, undocumented loan, would be even better, those damn progressives have no taste.

[Kickass Conservative]

What comes around goes around.

Democrats rob the Taxpayers every single second of every single day. It's like the Sun coming up in the morning.

[farmguy]

So the wealth was redistributed. He should be happy. What could be more progressive?

[Paleo Conservative]

There’s just no honor among thieves anymore!

Kinde Durkee

Now under arrest, Democrat Kinde's company, Durkee and Associates, says on its website: “Since 1972 we have worked for 5 presidential campaigns, 4 gubernatorial campaigns, numerous senate, congressional, state and local candidates, initiatives, political action committees and many non-profit associates and small businesses.” (Excerpt) Read more at ocregister.com.

There's a zillion ways to scam using non-profits, PACS, and other campaign accounts.

1. Lack of internal control policies;

2. Difficulties in obtaining documentation;

3. Untimely account balance reconciliations;

4. Lack of compensating controls in: journal entries, bank reconciliations, cash disbursements, and utility billing revenues;

5. No consistent process of financial enties;

6. Excessive financial entries made to correct or adjust initial entries;

7. Bank reconciliations not correctly reconciled to general ledger.

Did Kinde use the Madoff MO to stash stolen money? Bernie's Ponzi assets were stashed in a super-secret labyrinth of interrelated international funds, institutions and financial entities of almost unparalleled complexity and breadth......with assets and businesses in multiple places overseas that hid thievery, money laundering and tax evasion.

[rockrr]

Quantitative redistribution of assets.

(My second choice was “Kinetic Redistribution of wealth”) ;-)

[Joe 6-pack]

It looks like she may have invested a fair portion of the money in lasagna futures.

[Texas Songwriter]

Robbed connotes a physical confrontation, while theft connotes something one owns was illegally taken from one's possession when he is or is not not present. Is this democrat a lawyer?

[Sundog]

arbitrarily preempted the funds from their intended usage ... (like sending my money to the Palis) or
accidentally diverted resources ... (like sending my money to Haiti) or
expedited payment prior to authorization ... (like feeding every Detroit kid for free in the schools) or
willfully rearranging the asset flow ... (like using my money to prop up South Korean banks) or
creating a special purpose fund ... (like TARP)

payback is a b***h or what goes around, comes around. Couldn’t happen to a nicer person. Helping Dems understand liberals, one congress critter at a time.

[skinkinthegrass]

I've been robbed...

We've been sayin' that for decades...

[skinkinthegrass]

It looks like she may have invested a fair
portion of the money in lasagna futures.

more like....caviar, bree and champagne.
