    Groucho: I’ll give you ten years at Leavenworth or eleven years at Twelveworth.

    #2, while I wish these criminals would have to serve real time, like you and I would had we broken the law, they’ll go to the same rich country club Martha Stewart went to, and won’t learn any lessons!

    Groovy. A subpoena’s as good as an indictment, when you want an aide to sing for his freedom.

    Squeeze the boy.

    Just remember: When the GOP starts sucking up for donations this election year, just say Ney and Noe!

    Just Pretend the Iceberg Isn’t There.

    Please…

    Ney and Noe
    I like that jurassicpork
    Is anyone keeping track of the subpoenaes and indictments in just the last 18 months in the Republican party! Why would anyone vote that party again?
    Look at the damage done in the past 6 years - everywhere!
    What is better today than 6 years ago? Now think of what is worse than it was six years ago.

    5.31.06 Tom Noe, once a powerful political figure who also raised money for Ohio Republicans, still is charged with embezzlement in an ill-fated $50 million coin investment that he managed for the state workers’ compensation fund.
    The investment scandal has been a major embarrassment for Ohio’s ruling Republicans and given Democrats a better shot at winning state offices this year, including the governor’s office, which has been under GOP control since 1991.
    Investigators do not know whether Noe used money from the state coin fund for campaign contributions.
    Noe was charged with exceeding federal campaign contribution limits, using others to make the contributions and causing the Bush campaign to submit a false campaign-finance statement.
    He said Wednesday that he pleaded guilty to “spare my family and many dear friends” the ordeal of a trial.
    Noe, 51, declined to comment to reporters at the hearing. He has been free on bond since he was indicted in October and now lives in Florida. Prosecutors planned to recommend a sentence of 2 to 2{ years. The maximum sentence would be five years on each of three counts and a combined $950,000 in fines.
    A sentencing date was not set.
    Federal prosecutors have said the case was the largest campaign money-laundering scheme prosecuted under the 2002 campaign finance reform law, which set limits on donations.

    But when asked about the subject of the $70,000 poll, Bush said, “I’m not going to tell you.”

  17. Jay Randal Says:

    Rep. Ney is a very corrupt and putred member of the House who must resign or be indicted!
