Weldon’s “FBI informant” is a campaign staffer.
Citing information he received from an “ex-FBI agent,” Rep. Curt Weldon (R-PA) has been suggesting to reporters that federal agents investigating Weldon have been working in cahoots with his Democratic campaign opponent Joe Sestak. Weldon “failed to mention” that the “ex-FBI agent” is one of his own staffers, who has been on his campaign’s payroll since May.

Well if Weldon would stop criminalizing his politics…..
October 20th, 2006 at 11:16 amThis guy is even too corrupt for his own campaign workers.
October 20th, 2006 at 11:20 amtypical desperate, disgusting, Republican spin.
October 20th, 2006 at 11:22 amSeriously, do these guys think no one will look into allegations? Between Weldon and Nguyen in CA, the ignorance is really taking a toll on the race to maintain control. These guys are digging themselves a hole and can’t seem to put the shovel down.
October 20th, 2006 at 11:28 amDesperate measures are required in Desperate times. The Wail has become a wimper. The Politician pathetic, and the Citizen a criminal..
Next Rape-Public-Can despot please.
October 20th, 2006 at 11:34 amThis guy is freakin’ hilarious! Next thing you know, he’ll be quoting stuffed animals.

Stick a fork in it…welldone.
October 20th, 2006 at 11:42 amDoesn’t he know that the right way to come out on top of an investigation is to fire the investigators?
typical desperate, disgusting, Republican spin.

Sadly by 17 hrs today the beard, little katie and the rest will all be repeating the charge without once mentioning that the “ex-agent” is a krazy kurt staffer.
October 20th, 2006 at 11:55 amMaybe he can suddenly remember where all Saddam’s WMD are hidden as well?
October 20th, 2006 at 12:01 pmThis can’t be true… I mean, that would be… I don’t know… dishonest or something… right?
October 20th, 2006 at 12:09 pmWeldon should double check to make sure none of his campaign workers are ex-humans.
October 20th, 2006 at 12:22 pmI wonder why and how this “informant” became an “ex” FBI agent? Incompetence as an agent? Corruption as an agent? Lucrative offer from Weldon for cover? All of the above?
October 20th, 2006 at 12:30 pmIt’s not just that, Auld isn’t even sticking by Weldon’s story.
Weldon’s counter-attack has therefore already failed.

I wonder if Bushiva or L’il Dick will show up at…
…Weldon’s campaign rally?
October 20th, 2006 at 1:03 pmWeird stuff!
October 20th, 2006 at 1:58 pmThat lied didn’t work. What lie will he come up with next.
October 20th, 2006 at 2:05 pmRepublican in DC are all vile criminals!
October 20th, 2006 at 3:13 pmRepublicans in DC are all vile criminals!
October 20th, 2006 at 3:13 pmThis is why people should not tell lies…they are all too easy to forget. 8]
