āIf he (McAllister) is wondering why he didnāt receive a check from the Heritage Foundation, which does not make political expenditures of any kind, it is because we do not do it,ā Weidman said. āThe Heritage Foundation is a think tank and does research and education, but does not get involved with political bills at all.ā
Which the political whore Weidman failed to discern is a distinction without a difference.

I guess that since heās not running again any further donations to him are moot. But heāll be making the Louisiana county fair circuit this fall with his kissing booth.
And thanks for telling us something we did not already knowā¦

Is being ugly a condition for being republican? Inquiring minds want to know.

Getting all this money for votes out of politics sure would make all our lives better.

Sure would. But without some sort of dramatic changeālike an invasion of benevolent democracy-loving space aliensāI donāt think we ought to hold our breath.

Just be thankful that the inner webs are not yet capable of providing you with an olfactory experience to accompany the pictures
Duh.
We just need one of the conservative judges of the SCOTUS to retire or buy the farm. My money is on Kennedy retiring or Scalia expiring. Once that happens and we get campaign finance case before the court itās over and then we return to democracy.

āJames Weidman, a spokesman for Heritage Foundation, told the Ouachita Citizen that the think tank does not spend in elections and āwould never do anything like that.āā
No, youāre thinking of Heritage Action. Thatās the guy in the cubicle next to mine.

Hope so! I donāt want to put the rich in concentration campsāyetābut Iād prefer that money not be considered speech. Money makes you powerful enough just by being money.

Need trillions of dollars so I can buy the following properties. The House of Representative, The Senate and the White House and especially the Supreme Court. I want to rent it to decent human beings of any and all races, religions and sexual orientation that will understand the Founding Fathers and treat the Constitution of the United States and the BIll of Rights as it was written to establish a democracy. If by chance I find individuals that will abide by these documents, I will ask for no more than there judgement on decisions and charge no rent to the occupants. OH wait!!! I already own theses properties, I already pay the occupants for there judgments and decisions. Damn, Thought I was on to something. Anyway, need the trillion and lots of blue help in my volunteer state where they donāt know what that word means. lol Come on Down!!!
Exactly. Liberals whine about how Ginsburg should retire because of her age, but that does nothing to change the ābalanceā on SCOTUS. Only by losing Scalia/Thomas or Kennedy do we have a hope of getting justice for anyone outside of the 1 percent or Corporate America.

This is what happens when your buddies turn on you, though ā suddenly, telling the truth is pretty easy.
