Mitch taking money from bribers. Again.

What’s the deal with Mitch McConnell being so cozy with people under investigation for bribery of government officials?
First, it was Mitch taking in loads of money from BAE, a foreign company under investigation by a zillion countries, including our own Justice Department (Mitch coincidentally then tried to slip in millions of $ to BAE in an earmark). Now, Mitch has taken $1,000 from Bob Asher, who was convicted of bribing government officials to get contracts for his company.
One must wonder if there is some kind of coorelation here? Why are people under investigation for bribing public officials so eager to give money to Mitch McConnell?
Who knows?

Unbelievable! The innuendo being that our all powerful senate minority leader would sell his soul for such a paltry sum! My god, we in Kentucky should be outraged.
Poor Mitch! His republican cohorts, from other states like Alaska, and California, will hardly get out of bed for that small amount of lucre.
We do have such a substandard economy here though. Thank god for Mississippi and Trent Lott & kinfolk…..
Speaking of bribing public officials: Trent Lott’s brother-in-law, and nephew are doing a perp walk for attempting to bribe a judge in Miss. Wonder about the timing of that.
