"Just for the record", your post is still ridiculous.
Jesse Jackson is a socialist.
Alan Keyes is a constitutionalist who believes in the principles spelled out on the homepage of this website.
If I had to guess, you're probably much closer to Jackson on the political spectrum than you are to Keyes.
Hence the ridiculousness...
I comprehend the situation just fine. We are known by the company we keep, and you, well you keep company with a den of thieves. Maybe they'll let you off "guard-duty" so you can get in on the game.
Yeh, those black socialists are terrible, they even support something as insane as reparations!

What this is also about, and tactfully unstated in your post, is leadership - or lack thereof. The quote Mr. Seper failed to get was Dr. Keyes', "No Comment", or an explanation as to when he is going to clean house, fix his organization and assure the public that no organization he is ultimately responsible for will ever be forced to sign an agreement with these statements in it again:
The Aug. 18 "agreement and order," signed by Declaration Foundation Executive Director Mary Parker Lewis, a top Minuteman adviser, acknowledged that the charity made false statements in seeking to solicit donations, failed to properly administer money it had collected, and withheld documents sought as part of an "investigative subpoena."

I have no data one way or another.
No - you tried to employ the everybody does defense, in an articulate way I will admit, to try to avoid the difficult questions. The burden is on you - not us, particularly when you consider the reasons (per Seeper) the fines were imposed.
Well, EV has a point. If the man who holds himself as the "Moral Light" for other conservatives admits that his organization has "made false statements in seeking to solicit donations, failed to properly administer money it had collected, and withheld documents sought as part of an 'investigative subpoena,'" then what must the "less moral" conservatives be doing? ;-)
IMO, this is another blow for conservatism, especially after all the recent Congressional scandals.
Alan Keyes is a constitutionalist grifter.
The major difference here is that you earn your living off a grifter and I don't.
You should be ashamed of your hypocracy.
"Just for the record", your post is still ridiculous.
Truth shall set you free.
Thank you very much. I would've missed this if not for the ping.
I really appreciate Mr. Seper's diligence in sticking with this story and the related stories as Declaration Alliance etc, are involved. I think he's shown very well how the Keyes organization(s) and their associates, are able to ingratiate themselves with unsuspecting dupes like Simcox, and sucker them into money-making schemes over and over. List rentals, consulting fees, caging fees, etc.
They've literally made their fortunes off latching on to the issue du jour, for years. It's disgusting.
Hi H'up: Keyes is much like Jackson in the sense both have made careers and fortunes from (you'll love this one) **glomming on** to the issues that are dear to the extremists who support them. Both are immoral but I dislike Keyes more for turning out his daughter in such a humiliating way and invoking all that phony moral righteousness that made him look like an ass.
Keyes has gone so far around the circle he's met himself coming around the other side.
ps: Is glomming a real word? ;)
bttt
Spot on.
You bet it's a real word and you used it correctly. Good for you! :-)
IIRC, his daughter ended up with a full scholarship to Brown after all the publicity, and was on her way toward establishing herself as a con-artist for the gay/leftist community.
Sometimes I wonder if Keyes, Kristol and a few others didn't think all this up in college or somewhere thereafter: "I'll target the moderates, you can target the far right...."
Excellent work! :-D
lol
Oh my. I have been sick and missed this ping.
