Here we go! FBI Raid Bush fund-raiser's condo -- Tom Noe

[libertypirate]

I actually wondered if they would be able to catch someone doing this.

Remember Tom Noe
<snip>
Mr. Noe, 50, is a coin dealer and former chairman of the Lucas County Republican Party. He manages two rare-coin funds that have received $50 million from the Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation.

<snip>
At issue is whether Mr. Noe gave people money in order for them to give to the Bush campaign, allowing Mr. Noe to exceed federal spending limits, law-enforcement sources said.

By law, Mr. Noe would have been unable to contribute at the fund-raiser because he had already made a $2,000 donation in August, 2003.

1. Man! I thought they raided an actual fundraiser

Like they burst into some hotel ballroom, guns-a-blazing, and made all of the hoi polloi hit the dirt. Ah! To dream!

7. Looks like the corrupt BOE are getting served....

But if the Feds care for the americans at all, they'll raid Blackwell's courthouse and get behind Blackwell's fraud propaganda campaign.

2. Good, now I hope there is some evidence...

I'm thinking Bushy made many enemies in the FBI and CIA, hopefully they'll be working to expose him one of these days...This could be a start...

happening a lot. Rich 'pioneer' finds 10 idiots and gives them cash to donate to bushie! Who's to know?

5. Tom Noe - Toledoan

He's also pretty bad with his coin stores, he likes to overcharge the value of what he sells by huge amounts.

8. Where can I get work like this?

<snip>
Mr. Noe, 50, is a coin dealer and former chairman of the Lucas County Republican Party. He manages two rare-coin funds that have received $50 million from the Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation.

That investment arrangement is currently under a separate investigation being conducted by the Ohio inspector general.
<end>

The article also says Noe "made millions" from this arrangement.

You don't suppose that folks in God's Own Party would be using public funds for republican purposes, do you?
