RUSH: I had some rudimentary information on this two weeks ago, and it wasn't enough for me to trust going with. But since then, it has been verified, and most of it's been verified by a "Freeper" at Free Republic. Everybody is writing about this now, since the Freeper posted it over the weekend...

Seems like Mr Klien is trying to make the Dem case. He still doesn’t explain the big house or the remodel and commercial property. Sure would like to see those corporate tax reports, not to mention he could write off his health insurance payments as a self insured.
Sorry PravdABDNCBS, you didn’t dig deep enough. Great job icu!

According to Senate Democratic aides, some bloggers have made repeated phone calls to the home of 12-year-old Graeme Frost, demanding information about his family's private life. Evidence?

According to Senate Democratic aides, some bloggers have made repeated phone calls to the home of 12-year-old Graeme Frost, demanding information about his family's private life.I don't know about any "phone calls" demanding "private" information, but I've got news for these Dim staff whiners :
Real estate records, including mortgages, are PUBLIC information.
And the Frosts own real estate with plenty of equity -- both a private house (at least one), and a commercial property.

You know, if Maryland had a school voucher program those people would be able to afford health care for their children.
Anyway, it seems the Dems want a lot of the poor to pay for the health care of these well-off people.

Oh I have no problems with it myself. I just like to point out how the media likes to use labels.
My personal favorite is “right-wing conspiracy.”

Even if we were to accept the Democrat-provided figures, should a family making $50K be on public assistance? That is pretty good money. A family making that much should be able to care for themselves, including health insurance.

Mr. Frost, also 26, is known as Halsey. He owns Frostworks, a woodworking and furniture-design studio in Baltimore. His mother, Randy Frost, is a quilt artist. His father is the deputy director of design and construction for the City University of New York in Manhattan. The bridegrooms late grandfather Frederick G. Frost Jr. was an architect responsible for several public buildings in New York, including Martin Luther King High School in Manhattan..
The tidbit in bold is what really makes me wonder....
Manhattan, NY eh? Why do I smell a hillrat?

"But Manley [a spokesman for Reid, D-Nev] say conservative bloggers didn't dig deep enough. It turns out that the Frost children attend Baltimores Park School on near-full scholarships; they pay roughly $500 per child per year in tuition, he said." Can any FReeper detectives verify Harry Reid's lackey's statement?

That still doesn’t explain why he’s holding on to 500K of investment property.
Before you reach into my pocket to buy something for your kids, you damned well better sell off your non-essentials.

If the man cannot support his family by being self employed, then he needs to find a way to do so.
Choosing to be self employed is no excuse for not being able to provide for your children.
We are self employed, and have been for years. We pay out the wazoo for insurance.
I have had this conversation before with a man I know, who is also self employed and complaining that he cannot afford to insure his family.
My response? Then get a job that does allow you to care for them. This guy went to private school, has a college degree that was paid for by well off parents, and yet he chooses to fail his family.
You can argue all day long that insurance is too expensive, and we need to find a way to get insurance companies to lower costs, but NEVER will I go for government health care.
Take care of your own, and leave me alone.

He could write off his Health Insurance too. He chose not to and scammed the system.

Evidence? The charge was made by at least two anonymous Senate Democrat aides. You need more proof than that?
Don't you trust them?!?

The obvious flaw in the claims (Well, ONE of the obvious flaws...):
At UNDER $50,000/year, HOW did they pay for the $20,000/year for two kids in private school????

We got the help we needed because we had health insurance for us through the CHIP program.Correction....you got the help you needed because someone out there in the tax paying world was working their butt off to pay the health insurance for their OWN kids as well as yours!

Wonder if the IRS will be wondering that too?
