The astounding amount of corruption now catching up with the GOP is almost impossible to keep up with at this point. (Especially when your humble blogmaster is on the road supposedly to be enjoying a few days of R&R…How’s that going, Brad?…Yeesh…)
Two stories of note from today and yesterday…
YESTERDAY: Thomas Noe, former head of the Lucas County, OH GOP and a “Pioneer” level (responsible for more than $100,000 in contributions) fundraiser for Bush/Cheney ’04 has pled guilty to three charges including funnelling more than $45,000 in illegal contributions to the Bush/Cheney re-election effort in Ohio. He faces still faces more than four dozen other charges related to stealing more several million dollars from a rare-coin pension fund he managed for the state. Noe’s wife, Bernadette, was the head of the Lucas County board of elections and was forced to step down after “irregularities” were found in their management of the 2004 election. Some of those points are discussed in Bobby Kennedy’s Rolling Stone article on the gaming of the 2004 election today.
TODAY: The FEC finds that Republican Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist broke the law by not declaring some $1.4 million in personal loans for his campaign. He’s being fined $11,000. Just another day for Republicans who seem to have lost their once-vaunted interest in “the rule of law.”
What will TOMORROW bring?…Place your bets…
Say it ain’t so … preznit blush don’t hang with no crookies … right?
I’m not a betting woman, but what I WANT to happen next is for a recording of the actual planning of 9/11 to be made public. The traitors would be history inside an hour.
Well I don’t think fristy will miss a mere 11g’s. Really taught him.
bush will continue to frist fuck (whats left of) the middle class with impunity until . . . . . "it" is stopped . . .
..In the meantime, Jefferson has been busted taking a bride of 100k, more then double, and its ok because he is a democrat.
It about left and right, not right and wrong here.

As posted on,.. "Republican Sinners" blog,…
Ricky Vandal – Lust
Ricky Vandal (aka Mongoosejuice2004, aka LindsaysLover, aka Bonnie, aka Ricky, [added 1/26] aka Sam Boogliodemus, aka hunkyboy, aka Halibot22, aka Halie Bott, aka JohnnyVegas ) is probably the most prolific commentor/blogger that has ever graced this Mortal Coil.
If there’s a hot topic, a big "buzz word" or a sensibility left to offend, Rick is there putting up a new blog, complete with e-commerce links, to try to capitalize off the subject. But on top of that, Rick uses his seemingly massive amount of spare time to post comments in blogs. Apparently, his e-commerce revenue leaves him with enough money to buy Poise "Creamy, Golden Moments" Diapers so he can shit himself instead of leaving his chair.
Doing a search on "Ricky Vandal" alone yields too much information to digest in one, two or even thirty good sittings.
This much is clear, though, Rick is a dyed-in-wool Conservative. A Republican Underground Hero, if you will. Don’t let the author of a blog called The New Democrat (in which he lists his favorite Dems as Joementum and Hillary Clinton) fool you.
His cut-throat capitalist instincts make him a classic example for Republicans to point to when they say that their way is the better way. And, according to Rick himself, El Rushbo, Instapundit, Andrew Sullivan and other Conservative Heavyweights have given him props:
I received many links to my blog. From Instapundit and other major bloggers. Even one from Rush Limbaugh. The blog had a google pagerank of seven, which meant it was on the first page of any google and yahoo search for "John Kerry" or "The New Soldier" or any mix of the words. I received a lot of google searches after the book was mentioned on the Sean Hannity show on Fox News and when it was mentioned on the Rush Limbaugh talk radio show. I had 300,000 unique visitors between August, when I started the blog and November the second, election day.
With friends like those, we can assume that he follows the Teachings of Jesus and be a good, kind, Christian Republican who does no wrong and covets nothing Sinful. For, if he did, he would most assuredly be cast from the storied Halls of Conservative Champions and never be accepted as a True American again. All his e-commerce pennies would stop flowing in and he’d have to go back to using the toilet again. Rush would denounce Rick on air. Bush would call a press conference to apologize for letting someone like Rick do his dirty campaign work.
Right? (Hey, I only put it like that because that’s what standard Rush holds everyone else to. Right?)
But, hey, enough of my jabbering on what kind of person Ricky is. He reveals more about himself than I ever will. I’ll let his own words show that he is a hardcore member of God’s Political Party:
The leftists’ rants about Christian bigotry drives even the moderate Christians, who would normally laugh about this whole story, to defend their faith. – From his New Democrat blog, waxing all-knowing wisdom about the Faith (because he’s a Republican, of course)
You Democrats can have all these abortionists. I see all these liberal jokers came together on the Washington Mall. It looks like dress rehearsal for the time they’ll be spending together in HELL. -A comment left on Burnt Orange Report by Rick, regarding abortion (obviously)
You just gotta love Democrats. They think Judge Hoore is going to be our Nader. Won’t happen. You know why, because we got brains. We won’t let our vote get split. – Rick professing his Republicanship while commenting about the "Ten Commandments" Judge, Roy Moore (with an M)
Let’s see: Claiming to be "holier-than-thou"? Check. Professing the wisdom of Conservatives? Check. Lusting after the Presidents daughter while slathering Wesson Corn Oil on his palms and making creepy posts about dating her? Um… Check?
Witness his website named "I Love Jenna Bush" (it has to be seen to be believed) in which he proclaims among pictures of Jenna in various states of dress and sobriety:
You’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen. When I see you I smile. When you smile it makes me wanna fly. The sexy look in your eyes always gets to me. The careless way you move your hips when you walk makes me dream dreams of us.
She talks with a Southern drawl. She acts kinda crazy. Her life’s a mystery to me. I dream about her hand holding mine. It’s a feeling that’s fine. And I just gotta say she’s cast a magical spell. And it’s working so well. All I dream of lately is kissing her belly button..
It doesn’t matter where you go or what you do I want to spend each moment of the day with you I never knew that I could be in love like this it’s crazy but it’s true I only want to be with you
Oh Jenna
Oh Jenna
Oh Jenna
I love you
After typing that last bit he had to get a new keyboard. Spooge and electronics don’t mix.
And, just to prove that this site is his (he fails to mention his name in the text), this is the address of one of the pages on his site:
http://www.geocities.com/i_love...and_Ricky.html
Doing a search on Ricky Vandal also brings up his old Jenna blog, ilovejennabush.blogspot.com, as well… a blog that has since been removed.
Creepy shit, eh? And don’t get me started on the Rick’s worship of false idols: The Church of Fandel and Blue Amazon. I’ll save that for another day.
In the meantime, Ricky should start getting a taste for felch because Satan is chock full and ready to leak.
Rick is currently trying to find a way out of posting on his New Democrat blog.
James 1:14,15

Old Turk#7, ROTFLMAO, you are a hoot. How did you find all that? I’m impressed!
Our inimitable fake-Christian president is leaving his bloody mark on more than frist’s fingers. They’re just flinging goodwill far & wide, as this very disturbing article attests:
"Public health and religion: Aids, America, abstinence"
"Uganda was a beacon of hope in Africa’s struggle against HIV, but the Christian right’s grip on US policy is undermining this effort with fatal consequences, reports Oliver Duff from Kampala"
"…Health workers see the fingerprints of America’s Christian right all over the chastity message and believe the Bush administration is using its financial might to bully them into accepting evangelical ideology at the expense of public health…"

Nice goin’, georgie. Your misguided minions are very busy spreading sickness & death in Africa. God help them.
Ya forgot the apostrophe, ricky.
Joan
Yes Uganda can be a beacon of hope . . . . . especially since we have the "pale faced idi amin" in office over here. . .
I don’t know if you would call these guys friends. I’d call them business associates.
The Jefferson story can be found on rushlimboob.com, Ricky. We told you that before.
Where’s YOUR comments on Frist??? More Republican corruption. 100-to-1, Jefferson is the "1".
Dems: Jefferson
Corrupticans: Ney, Rove, Bush, Cheney, Sherwood, Santorum, Rumsfeld, Wolfowicz, Perle, Hadley, Libby, Frist, DeLay, I can go on with about 100 more from Wayne Madsen’s Republican corruption scorecard.
Also, Ricky/Mike J: This troop massacre will show YOU if Bush is "for the troops." My prediction? Bush let’s American troops be the fall guy, and get the death penalty. Bush won’t stop American troops from getting the death penalty, so they take the fall for him. Let’s see how Bush stands up for the troops, Ricky.
If the troops are found guilty of the charges, they deserve everything they have coming. Period. Bush is for the troops, but very against those who commit crimes.
You see, unlike you people, we repsect the troops and honor them. They are heros and are reponsible for the freedoms you enjoy.
Land of the free BECAUSE of the brave.
Then, why do I bother with someone who thinks Bush caused 9/11. It might as well been Santa Claus, both are equally likely.
Bush & homeland security said they cut anti-terrorist funding to NYC & Washington because they are low risk. You know what Ricky? I BELIEVE THEM, BECAUSE THEY OUGHT TO KNOW BETTER THAN ANYONE, BECAUSE THEY DID IT THE FIRST TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Them saying "they know" NYC & WashDC are low risk now, PROVES they were in on it!!! How else could they know that and make a statement like that? NYC & WashDC were ONLY THE 2 F***ING CITIES ATTACKED ON 9/11, AND THEY’RE LOW RISK??? WTF???
If you believe this, Ricky, you should be banned from Brad Blog, seriously. You just make assinine, asshole statements, anyway.
Come on now Big Dan…
I like having Ricky around. He helps show the rest of us how smart we are…
shw
Chertoff said last night on public TV that a panel decided Wyoming was way more at risk than NYC or Washington. The panel was composed of Cheney and Bush. Sorry, the question of who was on the panel just never came up.
Dan,
NYC currently get the most money for seciruty of any place. After the cut, they still GET THE MOST MONEY of any city.
It doesnt surprise me you want me banned. Free speech is only for the like minded here. Brad often censors those who get too close to the truth. You know the "disinformation" ban.
Dan, you are what is known as a FAR LEFT KOOK. You live in this fog so you dont realize it. The reps of this country owe you are great deal of thanks. Your UFO sighting type ideas are part of the reaason we won.
Not only do I not want you censored. I want you out in public telling everyone you see what the democrats think 9/11 was. It will only further our majority in this country.
Im not kidding. Go public. Watch as the Democrats run as far away from you as they can get. To them, you are a kook.
Dan,
In your first paragragh you say that Bush caused 9/11. In the second you complain that they are Dumb because they cut funding to the cities that were attacked.
You cant have it both ways. Pick one.
Ricky #19
I like it when you type in an entire paragraph. Must be very difficult. Have you been taking lessons?
Got a date with any of the Bush girls yet?
For some reason when I heard your song about one of the Bush girls, I thought of the guy who shot John Lennon … or was it Reagan?
"Your UFO sighting type ideas are part of the reaason we won" … "Brad often censors those who get too close to the truth. You know the "disinformation" ban."
Look, little pRicky.. You can’t sit there and tell bald face lies, then complain about people being kicked for them.. It’s not that they get "too close to the truth", it’s that their "lies" are too serious to let ride. See, you’re just an ignorant little punk.. we can clearly see when your statements are complete crap (UFOs have nothing to do with anything on this site, and no one here has ever professed (on this site) to have seen a UFO (that I’ve ever seen). So, you tossing that out shows those of us that can THINK that you are merely trying to push emotional buttons. You aren’t dangerous because you’re a laughable ass-clown. When someone -actually- comes across as "believable" with LIES, they -are- dangerous (to the truth that you know nothing of), and SHOULD be prevented from posting lies.
And, for the umpteenth time, who cares about Jefferson? If he’s guilty, EVERYONE on THIS SITE is perfectly happy with him going to prison for his corruption. Every time we tell you that, you pretend it wasn’t said.. another form of being a liar, you see. You, pRicky, are about as dishonest as you can get.. but you’re mostly dishonest with yourself. It’s a condition of a feeble mind.. and, interestingly enough, the kind of thing the "Republicans" want to "save people from themselves" for. Problem is, there are a LOT of us who aren’t as deluded as you.. and we don’t need some self-rightous pompass ass telling us "what’s right".. we can figure that out on our own.
Here’s a thought, pRicky.. Do you support having elected officials REMOVED FROM OFFICE, and LOSE THEIR PENSIONS, and perhaps put in prison for comitting crimes while in office? See, -I- do.. I think that if some "public official" violates the "public trust" they have done the worst kind of offense one can do. When that happens, I don’ think they should be rewarded at all, I think they should be punished.
Though, you right-wing shills don’t care about law unless you can bash a "liberal" or "left-wing kook" with it. When it’s one of yours, you try to pretend it’s not a big deal, or say "wait till the facts are in", even after the CONVICTIONS are handed out.
Noe should be in prison for a long time. Frist, for illegally generating campaign funding (and thereby slanting the process), should not be allowed (if convicted) to remain in office, and certainly shouldn’t get off with a VERY MINOR FINE. Perhaps calling in the full $1.4 million, or fining him that amount since that’s what he ILLEGALLY used for his campaign (in addition to being tossed out of politics and into prison).
Granted, Shrubby didn’t do anything "illegal" with what Noe did.. but it should be a WARNING to all us citizens that REPUBLICANS have been playing naughty when it comes to funding campaigns, and that should worry any intelligent citizen since they should know that those dollars amount to being able to subvert the process. We should demand "fairness" in all elections, lest we lose our voice all together..
Oh.. wait..
#22 Savantster,
Allow me to second everything you just said. I don’t know if it’s ignorance or deceit, and I’m not sure which is worse.

"…Bush is for the troops, but very against those who commit crimes…"
Blindingly naive or stunningly deceitful, I have no idea which, nor at this point do I care.
This may be off topic, I don’t know, not really.
These massacres. Anything I think of to say sounds trite & useless.
Raw story has some hideous & truly heart-rending photos up, for those with the stomach for them.
This Iraq disaster has gone so beyond what any decent human being can comprehend that I don’t even know how to talk about it.
This quote from one of their stories comes close to how I feel.
"…George W. Bush gave the order to begin the unprovoked, unjust and unnecessary invasion of Iraq. He hasn’t fired a single shot or launched a single missile; he hasn’t tortured or killed any prisoners; he hasn’t kidnapped or beheaded civilians or planted bombs along roadsides, in mosques or marketplaces. Yet every single atrocity of the war – on both sides – and every single death caused by the war, and every act of religious repression perpetrated by the extremist sects empowered by the war, is the direct result of the decision made by George W. Bush three years ago. Nothing he says can change this fact; nothing he does, or causes to be done, for good or ill, can wash the blood of these children – and the tens of thousands of other innocent civilians killed in the war – from his hands.
And anyone who knows these facts, who sees these facts, and fails to cry out against them – if only in your own heart – will be forever tainted by this same blood…"
Amen. God forgive them. I don’t.
I love Brad. I love the people here. Thank you. We can’t give up. Won’t give up.
Question: If Tom and Bernadette Noe end up at the same prison, do they still get to…uh, act married?

Old Priest’s Dying Wish
The old priest lay dying in the hospital. For years he had faithfully served
the people of the nation’s capital. He motioned for one of his aides to come
near.
"Yes father," said the aide. "I would really like to see George Bush and
Dick Cheney before I die," whispered the priest. "I’ll see what I can do
father," replied the aide. The aide sent the request to the White House and waited
for a response. Soon the word arrived. Bush and Cheney would be delighted to
visit the priest. As they went to the hospital, Cheney commented to Bush,
"I don’t know why the old priest wants to see us, but it will certainly help
our images." Bush couldn’t help but agree.
When they arrived at the priest’s room, the priest took Bush’s hand in his
right hand and Cheney’s hand in his left. There was silence and a look of
serenity on the old priest’s face. Finally Bush spoke, "Father, of all the
people you could have chosen, why did you choose us to be with you as you
near the end?"
The old priest slowly replied "I have always tried to pattern my life after
our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." "Amen," said Bush. "Amen," said Cheney.
The old priest continued…" He died between two thieves. I would like to
do the same"
