christine o'donnell as under federal investigation for allegedly misusing campaign funds to pay
our rent
meals and actually in night of bowling is well with sounds very fun one of which is
approved charges
and of course she is lashing out at the usual liberal boogie man
is all george spores whose fault
of course it's
sar anything that restores is at fault for
the jeweler sourcebook iceberg and sank the titanic
it's true
he actually had media matters build it for her
killing claims the bikes president is part of the
of course you
o'donnell's trouble started during her fail senate campaign when the watchdog group citizens
for responsibility an ethics in washington or crew brought her question what campaign
expenses alike
here's melanie sloan cruise executive director on the show
ahmed shah in september
and many many
uh... expenses ms o'donnell claimed to be campaign expenses that were really just
high expenses of her lifestyle that she had no other income so she was treating her campaign
account like it was her personal piggy bank that there was no campaign treasurer has a
lot requires for over a year-and-a-half
so she had uh... wachovia bank kardashian's whipped out whatever other people would use
their debit card bill in the year attorney you better get no water
got her dead in the water adv
mile and on the today show this morning o'donnell launch a personal attack on this loan
this is the same
cruel complaints
that was filed several months ago by melanie sloan
a former abidin staffer pat from crew which is in store stars
left-wing that organization
and therefore witness here this is what's most telling
therefore witness wasn't volunteer from two thousand eight
who is also let go
but miss lowey is acting alone in o'donnell's mind she's just a puppet
in it anti o'donnell n_t_t_ party crusade spearheaded by
vice president joe biden
of course the whole world is obsessed by conspiracy to take on this irrelevant politician who
already got slaughtered in her election
buys like what cause i was on the front
alarm in the middle of this o'donnell conspiracy here i get back to look at it
that is far more dials statement quote
given that the king of the delaware political establishment just so happens to be the vice
president of the most liberal presidential administration in u_s_ history it is no surprise
that the misuse an abuse of the f_b_i_ would not be off the table
right now here to respond o'donnell's i use issues is melanie sloan examine director for
her
meli uh... first question is who came up with the idea to have just conspiracy was a buying
our sorbs
i'm narrow karnicki
i mean someone else's pop it and that's really not a lot of friends in the ad
you know it's during early enough i do not spend my time on the phone with either the
vice president for mr starr i said neither one of them as i reached out to me to talk
to me about christine o'donnell both of them presumably very busy with much more important
matters
all right so what where did all the start to begin with what do you guys get information
issue might be using the sink misusing campaign funds
what we read about it in the new york times adequately why things that something we came
up with there were many many articles about it particularly after a former o'donnell campaign
staffer made
recorded calls
adding
prior to the republican primary in delaware and dick in those cause that campaign manager
said that she had misused campaign funds inching treated her campaign funds like her personal
piggy bank and that certainly peaked our interest and then we found another campaign staffer
former campaign staffer dedicated also quoted we reached out to mister keegan and he told
us exactly what she was doing and how she did it he explained how she had called rent
payments to his nephew brain basher uh... expense reimbursements we found those honor
campaign finance forms so based on all of that we filed a complaint with the department
of justice
somali how serious is this uh... you know i know it's just the beginning here than it
looks like he was an investigation
but if it comes to fruition uh... as she is convicted how much she she see jail time is
that ordinary when she first courtesy jail time but she doesn't have any prior convictions
so it's not that likely night itself hard to say depends how much money she sold
depends how many offenses she's charged with
how worldly at the preliminary stage the department justice says it hasn't yet convened a grand
jury so we'll have to see how it comes out that we are talking about criminal felony
convictions for stealing campaign funds
and there's ample evidence that that's what was that i was doing the only real question
at this point is how much money did gcl now whether she self nine
strong talk i like it thank you melanie we appreciate your time
