Tea Party & other conserv fundraisers scamming their own


Grifters gonna grift-> There have been a number of reports of major tea party and other conservative groups raising bundles of money from gullible small donors but using it to line organizers’ pockets rather than elect like-minded candidates. Travis Gettys reports for Raw Story that conservatives have largely dismissed previous stories about this trend because they were published by the “liberal media.” But now a new study of 17 groups conducted by RightWing News comes to the same conclusion, and it’s causing widespread outrage on the right.

They first invested their money in gold just like the commercials instructed. Because the world is going to hell so fucking fast that unless you put all your money into gold your going to become penniless.

After the great failure of gold, they put all of their money into oil. Yep, a commodity that has provided both riches and losses beyond belief for those that have bet on them since forever.

At least they all were laughing about losing their life savings because what else is there to do?
