I hope he got the leopard lamp shades...

This is just a perfect story.  Corruption. Theft. A total in the tank leftist who doesn't even need to campaign to get re-elected in his district.. Getting paid for doing absolutely nothing, and representing absolutely no one.  A wife feeding from the same corrupt public trough.  Asking to hold off on the indictment until after nis (and Obummer's) November 6 election. And he's the son of the greatest (sic) race-hustler of all time, Mr. Rainbow Coalition himself.

A microcosm of the Dim Party itself. Beautiful.

Jesse Jackson Jr. probed for using campaign funds to redecorate home

10/15/2012


Federal authorities have launched an investigation into whether Illinois Democratic Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. misused campaign funds to redecorate his home, according to the Wall Street Journal.



Jackson’s lawyers met with federal prosecutors last week to try to dissuade them from seeking an indictment prior to the November election. Federal officials were able to make no such promise.



This probe is unrelated to an earlier investigation of allegations that Jackson tried to cut a deal with former Illinois Gov. Rob Blagojevich for the open Senate seat once held by Barack Obama. That case is currently under review by the House Ethics Committee.



Jackson, the son of civil rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson, went on medical leave from his position in June due to depression. It has since surfaced that he is seeking treatment for bipolar disorder.



After undergoing treatment in Arizona and then Minnesota, Jackson returned to Washington, D.C., though has not come back to work.



Jackson’s wife, Chicago Alderman Sandi Jackson, told reporters, ”I believe at some point in time he will come back.”    (Seriously? That's your statment? That's ridiculous!--WRD)



“I don’t know whether that will be before the election or after the election,” she added,” but whenever that happens, we will welcome him.”  (OMG, this is ridiculous!--WRD)



Jackson currently is on the ballot and is expected to win re-election in a primarily Democratic district in Chicago, though he has done no campaigning for his seat.  (Sure, let's just re-elect a guy who's bipolar, doesn't work, doesn't represent anyone, is corrupt, under federal investigation, has a race-baiting dad, and isn't even campaigning. Yeah, I think I'll vote for him!!!--WRD)
