RIP Stephen!
You've dug your own Grave, now all you have to do is write your own tombstone!
I wonder who hired this piece of crap. Hopefully their held accountable for it.
There is no such thing as a fair election if the GOP is involved. The fix is in.
i am registered as a repub. but really have become a tea party conservative, after living in a dictatorship nyc for 50 years.
i want Graves removed from the g.o.p. leadership.he did not receive any money(finders fee), but his intent is a reality.
who did get the finders fee for the bid winning company?
btw ,why isn't AG Eric Holder ,D.O.J. investigating who torched and destroyed the voting machine warehouse in HARRIS COUNTY,HOUSTON TEXAS. the local civic assoc. in the dem. congresswoman's (Shiela Jackson Lee)district publicized the voter fraud data that week??
Graves deserved it for being a misfit and a fool.
Who was the lobbyist whose identity has yet to be revealed? I bet money that this "lobbyist" was the mastermind behind this scheme and Graves was just a willing dupe and front.
The deal was that Graves would get the finder's fee (a paltry 25K) and in return, the prospective bidding company hires Graves' lobbyist (250K per year for 4 years).
Graves got himself sucked into that typical scheme by someone in the party who concocts a pay to play scheme in which the plotter (usually a political bigwig) transfers all the risk to a lowly hack, none to himself, in case the hack gets caught.
Graves was left holding the bag while the lobbyist suffers no significant pecuniary loss or prestige.
"There is no such thing as a fair election if the GOP is involved. The fix is in."
So the Grace Meng - Joe Crowley - Elizabeth Crowely - Parkside thing is fair? They're Dems, so it's ok?
"I wonder who hired this piece of crap. Hopefully their held accountable for it."
"Their"? Or "they're" Or "They will be"?
When will the Queens Republican Chairman resign?
This all flows down from the top.
Why can't others see that the emperor has no clothes?
