One question I don’t see being asked is why would the Ponzi crook donate so much to McAmnesty? What was expected in return?

Juan ought to start looking for a $ 50 an hour lettuce picking job, that’s all he is qualified to do.

The Gold-Plated Scott Rothstein Toilet

When news of the Ponzi scheme broke, someone sent [Bob] Norman [a reporter covering the story] a photo of Rothstein’s his-and-hers toilets. The lids were gold-plated, each estimated to cost $25,000.

on May 29, 2008, Mrs. Rothstein wrote a check for $70,000 to the John McCain presidential campaign and on May 30, 2008, a $74,223.99 wire transfer was sent from an RRA trust (law firm) account to Mrs. Rothstein's personal account

Kim Rothstein blew through nearly $900,000 on an American Express credit card since 2006, and received another $200,000 in salary and reimbursements for political contributions, according to a lawsuit filed against her Wednesday.

Kim Rothstein liked expensive shoes, Louis Vuitton handbags, Gucci accessories and evening dresses by Zola Keller, she said in the deposition. She could burn through thousands of dollars on a shopping outing, or drop nearly $5,000 buying platform shoes from a chic Los Angeles boutique online, she said.

It’s true that (his wife) Kim’s spending was an issue for Rothstein. Remember that her husband’s former bodyguard, Bob Scandiffio, said that one of Scott Rothstein’s chief goals every day was avoiding his wife. While she was neglected, she was ringing up purchases on the credit cards.

She would call Rothstein repeatedly and try to get some of his time, but the Ponzi schemer was out playing with other women, including the stripper he kept at the Ritz Carlton on the beach.

I’am a little surprised that obama is doing this, he still has not released the sources of the 250 MILLION DOLLARS he received from “foreign interest” If McCain was bright(he’s not) he would make a issue of obama campaign funding to force obama to back off.
