My understanding, from public sources, has always been that that is the case. Everything I see from this report jives with Simcox's statements and everything I've heard about their operations.
You know, it's somewhat of a mystery to me why any "conservative" would want to do the SPLC's work of giving conservative organizations anal exams anyhow, or why they have so much time on their hands to do so. Are personal grudges and petty disagreements that important in the bigger scheme of things? Don't they have conservatives to elect, and work to do in tending their own gardens?
By the way, the very fact that you ask the question is a tacit admission that you don't have enough information to make a fair, objective, righteous judgment about Chris Simcox or MCDC.
So the reports you link to have nothing to do with fence donations/expenditures?
Of the odd 400k raised it shows 144k for fundraising and and another 174k for "Professional Services". Do you know what this is or have a breakdown of these expenses?
Personally, I think it's better that we expose the riffraff in our own party before the New York Times does.
