Loading ...Just Good Old Fashioned Fundraising
Indiana Democrats say they are not breaking the law with a March 6 fundraiser with House Speaker Pat Bauer as the guest speaker. A state law bans lawmakers from fundraising during long sessions. Spokeswoman Jennifer Wagner says individual lawmakers can’t raise money, but political parties can and elected officials can headline those fundraisers. However Republicans are saying Democrats are getting pretty close to the line. One Republican insider put it this way, “although it’s probably not adultery for me to look at naked pictures of Hallie Berry, my wife probably wouldn’t appreciate it.”

or “It’s OK to look but don’t touch”
Sounds like the Democrats have taken up the mantra of NASCAR: “If you ain’t tryin’ to cheat, you ain’t tryin’ hard enough!”

Abdul-
You jumped all over Bill Mays and others for 300 East.
Will you do the same when Carl Brizzi attempts to break the law?

I hope none of the House Republicans are appearing at any events or functions during the session where money is being raised for other groups. I’d sure hate to see, for example, the Family Institute or Advance America using B-Boz as a headliner or draw.
By the way, what’s wrong with naked photos of Halle Berry?

Maybe they can hold the fundraiser at Harry and Izzy’s after it opens in the spring.
