Interesting point Dave – if these employees have their name tied to these donations, are these monies coming from their own pocket or supplied by others? – and if by others, wouldnâ€™t these alleged contributors then be responsible to claim this monies on their tax returns as income (regardless of how it was spent)?

I think a bigger scandel are the law firms that contribute to Dem Presidental candidates. On the same day, every employee of a certain law firm in…I think North Carolina (for one), contributes the maximum to a single Democratic candidate. (source National Review…no linky handy). Do you think the employees are forced to do this?

Matt â€“ the Democrats pretends to have virtues that they actually do not possess â€“ they pile on to any situation that involves a Republican to no end but when it is one of their own -it is shoved under the carpet- thus the tag “hypocrite” would apply to you.

Did Klobuchar give back the money that Fingerhut criminal gave her?

Matt, it isn’t ‘exposing’ Franken, its merely reporting a fact. Franken took money from a crook, and when he found out about it, he returned it.

Now if that was a republican who had gotten the money, the stupid demoncrats would be having a hissy fit and calling to string up the republican even if the republican had given back the money.

The point is: crooks contribute to Democrats and Democrats don’t ask questions.

Is this the guy who funnels huge bucko’s through the fake address in California?

I suppose Al couldn’t have known. They can’t research every contribution.

How is this exposing him? How was Franken, or any of those members, supposed to know that Hsu was a fugitive? I could see posting a story about this if Franken was told of this and refused to return the money.

But highlighting that Franken did the right thing? That’s very decent of you Michael.
