ARIZONA REPUBLICANS POSE AS COMMUNISTS TO MAKE ILLEGAL DONATION TO DEMOCRAT CONGRESSMAN TOM O’HALLERAN’S CAMPAIGN


Two men affiliated with the Arizona Republican Party allegedly attempted to make a campaign donation to a Democratic congressman while posing as communists in an apparent sting attempt.

The men, believed to be members of the Northern Arizona University Republicans, attempted to give $39.68 to the campaign office of Democrat Tom O’Halleran while desperately seeking a receipt for the money for the Northern Arizona University Communist party, reports The Guardian.

They pair are alleged to have wanted to make a donation in the name of the communist party in order to smear the Democrat by associating him with the far-left.

The men used the aliases Jose Rosales and Ahmahd Sadia while attempting to make the donation. When they were informed that they would only get an emailed receipt for the donation, “Rosales” scratched out one email and wrote another in while filling out the required paperwork.

1. Republican ethics. . .

Republican ethics:

Good = you succeeded doing something reprehensible

Bad = you got caught

2. Sadly true. Back when W was president I had a R neighbor tell me he

admired W for what illegal things he could get away with doing. He looked on it as a strength.

He also didn’t care that Clinton was acquitted in his impeachment trial. All that mattered to him was that Clinton would go down in history as a president who had been impeached.

This is how these assholes think.

4. Along those lines. . .

stealing the 2000 election by getting the recount stopped ranks the highest I think. All those disenfranchised voters whose votes were not counted (either overvotes or undervotes, but ones clearly indicating a preference).

I don't get Michelle Obama's lovefest with W, given what he did. One has to draw the line somewhere.

5. Oh, I hope this bites "Oscar" and the rest bad. Oscar is

on video accepting the return of the falsified donation. Guessing he's not a law student.

Northern Arizona University's main campus is in Flagstaff with over 30,000 students, ranked by U.S. News as 230 out of 301, and is a high-research institution highly dependent on public funding and other grants. If Oscar gets tossed out, guessing the Republican Party will find work for him.

6. Thanks for posting. Scumbags trying every trick in the bag, aren't they? Can't they win ...

in a normal way, by earning the votes honestly?

7. :) Well, we know the answer to that last.

The Republican leadership literally couldn't have won for years if they ran on the truth.

8. This is how Republicans operate.

It is not an exception. It is the rule, and they are proud of it (except of when they get caught).
