2 ex-Dem leaders charged in fake tea party scheme



Pontiac— Two former high-ranking members of the Oakland County Democratic Party are facing various election corruption charges in a bogus tea party scheme, Oakland County Prosecutor Jessica Cooper and County Sheriff Michael Bouchard announced Wednesday.


Former Democratic Party Chairman Michael McGuinness and ex-operations director Jason Bauer, both of Waterford Township, were arraigned Wednesday before Oakland Circuit Judge James Alexander.

They face charges related to Independent Tea Party filings, false affidavits and forged documents that occurred between July 23 and July 26 last year.

...

The charges include felonies that carry up to 14 years in prison. Neither could be reached for comment. Cooper and Bouchard announced the charges during a joint press conference conducted to discuss the findings of a one-person grand jury seated by Oakland Circuit Judge Edward Sosnick.

"The election process is sacred … this is not a partisan statement," Cooper said, noting her Democratic affiliation and that of Bouchard, a Republican. Bouchard said 23 questionable election filings across Michigan — eight of them in Oakland County — involved an effort to create the illusion of an Independent Tea Party and its candidates on November's ballot.


The goal was to woo away voters in local elections who might otherwise vote for other candidates, presumably Republicans, authorities allege.

If they are guilty they should pay.

There isnt a national Tea Party per se, like there is a Republican Party or a Democrat party but even at that it isnt on me that Obama got the Patriot Act renewal that he asked for.

Separate issue, separate thread anyway. So please dont derail this thread for that issue, start a new thread.

Nothing 'corrupt' about voting to renew legislation enacted by both parties.

Worry about corruption, racism, treason and usurption within the White House, please.

Well, it sorta is, when you ran on on the principle of being anti-both parties.

Hush,...... listen....... there..... isn't that the sound of a broom sweeping something under a rug?

So when someone brings a pin in close proximity to your bubble of one-sided illusions, is it your standard response to go flag down a cop?

How effeminate.

I wrote "please", your derail has nothing to do with the topic and I asked politely if you would take it to another thread

The flag down a cop BS is a product of your overactive imagination

Exactly. Its time we, as a nation, stopped making excuses based upon party lines and started convicting those guilty.

That's rather nice and all, but its simply too rigged and too far gone.

Maybe you should be more forward thinking?   Belong to America II's "Ain't gonna have no Fed" party.

Im GLAD that Obama mostly just parties and golfs and goes on all these fabulous vacations. Kicks his feet up when he *is* in the White House...


http://www.politicususa.com/en/obama-bush-vacation

The tall tales about Barack Obama keep getting taller everyday on Fox News. Tonight on The O’Reilly Factor guest Monica Crowley who claimed that, “Obama is taking a vacation every five minutes…Bush took two vacations a year in August and at Christmastime that was it.”

Crowley is lying. Bush spent 1,020 days of his presidency on vacation. To put this into context, John F. Kennedy spent fewer days in office, 1000, than George W. Bush spent on vacation. Bush spent 487 days at Camp David, 490 days at his Crawford ranch, and 43 days in Kennebunkport. George W. Bush spent 69 days in Crawford during his first year in office.

In contrast, according to FactCheck.org, Obama spent all, or part of, 26 days of his first year in office on vacation. This was less than all three previous Republican presidents, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George W. Bush, but more than the two previous Democratic presidents, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton.

You think Obamas done a lot of hard work moving the leftard agenda right along, do you?

All that hope and change is just shooting right out of his ass is it?
