Cochran Campaign Busted! Charles Johnson Scores Direct Hit

There are a lot of naysayers toward Charles Johnson and his reporting on Mississippi, despite the high accuracy of his content. Well, he has a scalp to add to his accuracy score. The Cochran campaign is admitting it “screwed up” its accounting.

The Gotnews.com site Monday night reported that the Cochran campaign reimbursed staffer Amanda Shook for large sums of cash listed as “Reimbursed Expense – Campaign Walkers.” FEC regulations allow reimbursement to staff only for travel and food expenses, and any other outlay of money by a staffer would be considered a contribution, and subject to a $2,600 limit.

A spokesman for six-term incumbent Cochran called the filing “a screw up,” and the campaign has denied vote buying and other allegations.

As the McDaniel campaign is noting, the allegations of criminal misconduct continue to rise against the Cochran campaign.

Last night on Mark Levin’s radio show, Senator Ted Cruz called for a full investigation into the Mississippi runoff. This story is not going away.

What a buffoon

Open Borders? I oppose them completely

Abortion? I oppose completely

Gay Marriage? I don't care who you date but marriage is between one man and one woman

Age of Consent? I don't think minors have the ability to decide for themselves and should be protected

Drugs? I think people should be able to ingest whatever they want, with the understanding that they are responsible for the ramifications of that choice.

Gun control? I support the Constitution which says that our rights shall not be infringed.

Your stance on drugs is no different that a liberals stance on various subjects. You take something that YOU don't like, and, without Constitutional support, decide that you can impose your will on others. Why don't you just admit you're a statist and move on. You support jack booted thugs because that's the only way a war on drugs works.

You support jack booted thugs because that's the only way a war on drugs works.

This is why libertarians are not conservative and should be banned from this forum. They truly HATE conservatives with a seething passion, as they ally themselves with leftists to legalize drugs and crap.

OK, here is a question.

Where in the Constitution does it set an age of consent?

The Constitution is worthless by itself, this government it creates was meant for a good and moral people, without guidance from morality it is useless.
