EXCLUSIVE: Pelosi paid husband with PAC funds

Quote:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has directed nearly $100,000 from her political action committee to her husband's real estate and investment firm over the past decade, a practice of paying a spouse with political donations that she supported banning last year.

Financial Leasing Services Inc. (FLS), owned by Paul F. Pelosi, has received $99,000 in rent, utilities and accounting fees from the speaker's "PAC to the Future" over the PAC's nine-year history.

The payments have quadrupled since Mr. Pelosi took over as treasurer of his wife's committee in 2007, Federal Election Commission records show. FLS is on track to take in $48,000 in payments this year alone - eight times as much as it received annually from 2000 to 2005, when the committee was run by another treasurer.

Lawmakers' frequent use of campaign donations to pay relatives emerged as an issue in the 2006 election campaigns, when the Jack Abramoff lobbying scandal gave Democrats fodder to criticize Republicans such as former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay of Texas and Rep. John T. Doolittle of California for putting their wives on their campaign and PAC payrolls for fundraising work.

Now we know why corrupt Obama and corrupt Pelosi are such close friends and allies.

First off, this doesn't have anything to do with the election. I'm sure you will rabidly disagree and say all sorts of bizarre things, but it just doesn't.

Second off, Obama and Pelosi are NOT friends. Obama actually dislikes Pelosi to a significant degree and considers her a problem and an obstacle for progress in general.

Typical democrat, say you are all for helping out the poor all the while you are sucking them dry so you can pad your own bank account.

Quit your asinine replies. Obama and Pelosi vote together almost 98% of the time, there is hardly anything they disagree on. They might even 'hook up' while in Washington with how much they love each other.

(looks around) Awesome thread you got going here. Hilarious how you perceive voting to mean friendship. And just like I said in my initial post, you sure enough managed to say all sorts of bizarre things.

Class act, buddy - keep it up!

LMAO...

The Politburo has privileges that are not yet on the books...Alinski and Ayers have already set the rules...even though Obama is not quite in...irregardless, your post is meaningless to the Obama Reichmeisters.

I always thought Pelosi might have had a sex change operation. That explains a lot.

Pelosi: Obama is a leader that God has blessed us with at this time.

Last I checked, if a fairy tale moron says someone is sent by the sky daddy, then they are heaping utmost praise onto them. Pelosi and Obama certainly seem chummy to me.

Honestly, XVZ - why is interpersonal communication such a big (*)(*)(*)(*)ing challenge for you?

What Pelosi has to say about Obama has NOTHING to do with what I told you. I'll say it again, just for you. I'll even make it the easy-reader version so you'll struggle less.

"Obama and Pelosi are NOT friends. Obama actually dislikes Pelosi to a significant degree and considers her a problem and an obstacle for progress in general."

I know this because I was told this from people who are close to the situation. Frankly, I didn't need to be told because all you have to do is watch for it and you'll pick it up yourself. In particular, he threw her under the bus on the drilling thing, big time.
