Joe Biden camp fined $219k for 2008 presidential campaign violations
July 17th, 2010
The Federal Election Commission has penalized Vice President Joe Biden’s 2008 presidential campaign $219,000 for accepting over-the-limit contributions and a deeply discounted flight on a private jet owned by an embattled New York hedge fund, as well as for sloppy record-keeping

GEH Air Transportation is owned by the Clinton Group, a New York hedge fund controlled by George E. Hall.
Biden for President reimbursed GEH Air Transportation $7,911 for the flight — the estimated cost of first-class airfare for three on a comparable commercial flight. But the FEC determined that the flight should have been reimbursed at a charter rate of $34,800.
FEC auditors concluded: “By failing to pay a charter rate, BFP received an in-kind contribution of $26,889 (the $34,800 owed less the $7,911 paid) from GEH,” which is illegal, since corporations are barred from contributing to federal campaigns. Biden’s representatives “indicated that they agreed with the finding and would write a check for $26,889 to the U.S. Treasury,” the auditors wrote.

It’s only money, folks. Move along. Nothin’ to see here.
The list, ping
Being Obamao’s token white boy and all, it is easy to accuse Biden of corruption, but in this case I suspect Biden is too stupid to have a clue.
