Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid has been using campaign donations instead of his personal money to pay Christmas bonuses for the support staff at the Ritz-Carlton where he lives in an upscale condominium. Federal election law bars candidates from converting political donations for personal use.
Is it the elections law that hard to figure out that campaign donations are not meant for personal use?

I just sent emails to Senate Ethics committee demanding an in-depth investigation into all of Reids financial dealings. The man is dirty through and through and needs to resign.
I also copied ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and MSNBC asking that they do an investigation since the senate is going to cover up for harry, and told them I want to see this on the news 24/7 since this is far worse than what foley did.
Please join me in this email campaign.
Thanks

somewhat, the actual incontrovertible truth that North Korea might want to (or might want to no longer) have a nuclear guns might want to distract any sane man or woman from a scandal with regards to a Republican who's now no longer in congress. The Harry Reid element is stupid too. Shady, yet hardly relevent to the authentic subject matters.

I find it appalling that the Opulent Ritz Carlton collects $$$ from Congress to throw a peasants ball for the slaves of the Congressmen that reside there.
Most likely it is mandatory attendance and poor people are not allowed to spend Christmas with their families.
Go big Red Go

Do you think this matters to liberals? They will find a way around this as usual, though I think Reid probably has quite a colorful history. He says he this is all the Republicans trying to affect the elections!

Harry Reid is corrupt.
He has gotten rich off the backs of us working people.
But it is okay. He is a Democrat.
Democrats are above the law.
