Noem ally subject of ethics probe

Here's another way an unscrupulous campaign surplus can change the game: Minnesota Public Radio aired a report on how Rep. Kristi Noem's TEA Party compatriot, Michele Bachmann (earth hater-MN), used her campaign war chest to bully Republican legislators in her state by threatening to run opponents to them in primaries if they voted against a bill that bans marriage equality.

Fellow Koch whore Bachmann could be subjected to a trans-vaginal ultrasound of the IRS kind:

The Daily Beast has learned that federal investigators are now interviewing former Bachmann campaign staffers nationwide about alleged intentional campaign-finance violations. The investigators are working on behalf of the Office of Congressional Ethics, which probes reported improprieties by House members and their staffs and then can refer cases to the House Ethics Committee. Now the prospect of a House Ethics Committee investigation into Bachmann’s presidential campaign adds an additional indignity to the self-inflicted disasters of her political career. Demagoguery eventually brings dishonor. And her most passionate supporters ought to consider what it means when the people who know Bachmann best respect her the least.--John Avlon, The Daily Beast.

South Dakota's large-bottomed US House Representative, Kristi Noem, is getting rich pimping her children and relatives in her campaign videos. She raised four times more moola than her opponent, Matt Varilek, according to the newspaper hiding her past from voters:

Tony Post, executive director of the South Dakota Republican Party, said he doesn’t see Noem’s gift as very unusual. Republican congressional candidates usually give to support the party, he said, citing $95,000 in donations Sen. John Thune gave to the party in 2010.

But her skills at prostitution are hardly new.

Noem nearly lost in 2010 following revelations of a 20-year driving record fraught with recklessness resulting in numerous arrest warrants for failure to appear.

Millions in farm subsidies apparently negotiated through FSA: evidence of entitlement, solipsism.

Democrats=safe sex. Republicans=cheap sex.
