1. Ben Carson is not only the screwiest GOP candidate so far...

He's also the most corrupt.

[MynameisBlarney]

6. Maybe not the most corrupt.

But his corruption is fairly easy to to find without much digging.

16. Can't believe with all the many business dealings Trump has had

no one is coming up with dirt about him

[wordpix]

17. here's some huge dirt - his bankruptcies and "using the laws of the United States"

He was asked this week by Mika on Morning Joe to explain that and he clearly got rattled, would not answer the q and got off on another tangent immediately. Unfortunately, she let him off.

Putting the dots together, soon after he announced, Trump also said that while he was "on the other side" as a donor to campaigns, and he got what he asked for in return for the $. So it seems he got benefits in the bankruptcy laws. He probably helped write the laws himself. Would not doubt it if he's giving huge donations.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

18. Hmmm. Don't think I agree. I think his answer to the bankruptcy questions

was good - took advantage of the laws - like many other enterprises do - and small percentage of all the companies he owns or has owned.

2. Two thoughts:

1. At least Costa didn't kill a lion in cold blood (where's the outrage in this case?);
2. If the Repugs succeed in shutting down Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and other "entitlements," how will their trusted friends defraud the taxpayers?

[Cyrano]

5. Their "trusted friends" won't have to

defraud taxpayers out of their "entitlements." The money will go directly from govt. coffers into their pockets. That's the core of the Republican agenda.

3. Poor guy was under house arrest

at his 8,300 square foot home ...

.... until he petitioned the court successfully to let him spend a month at a resort he owned that needed his personal attention in person.

.... Then he successfully got the court to reduce his probation down to two years.
