This is the sort of shady government we can expect to tar the state of Maryland if we make the mistake of electing Michael Steele to the U.S. Senate. The latest addition to his woefully disorganized campaign is Doug Heye, also known as a frequent skybox guest of Republican lobbyist and convicted crook Jack Abramoff. You’ve got to wonder, how many other of Abramoff’s dirty pals Steele will infect Maryland with?
That’s not a chance we should take.

Or, Marylanders can vote for the party that illegally obtained Michael Steele’s credit report.
Do we really need to go over the list of Democrats this statement covers, again?
Poor Brandi–we all can’t have AA’s in PC Support from Manurespreader CC like him. How’s that job search going? Still fending off the recruiters with a lead pipe?
The fact that Steele’s credit report was illegally obtained doesn’t mitigate the fact he chose to hire on one of Abramoff’s butt boys. In fact, it rather exemplifies Steele’s stupidity.
I looked around, but I couldn’t find any information on how corrupt Heye is. Do you have anything else besides some wrestling matches and a circus?
Brandon, refresh my memory. Who was it that ratted out the aides who got Steele’s credit report?
I’m asking because I seem to have this nutty recollection that it was the Democrats who turned them in.
Sheesh. I must be imagining things.
That’s some pretty twisted logic, Quaker. I guess then we can write off Duke Cunningham, Jack Abramoff, Ken Lay, and Bernie Ebbers because it was Ashcroft and Gonzalez’s Justice Department who took down this list of crooks.
Twisted yourself, hot shot.
If Ashcroft and Gonzalez took down that lot, then you don’t blame Ashcroft and Gonzalez for the crime, right?
Because we all know that two misguided ex-staffers pulling the credit report of a political rival is EXACTLY the same as using federal office to enrich yourself, right?
I’m still waiting to hear what corrupt activities Heye was engaged in…
factcheck, they weren’t exactly ‘ex’ at the time of the incident.
“Bush – Steele”? Can he run for office in Maryland while he’s President. Doen’t seem possible.
Before that, he worked for Rep. Richard Pombo (R-CA), who’s very close to Tom DeLay and Jack Abramoff.
That in itself should be reason enough to keep one’s distance.

Do you mean physically, or geographically, or emotionally?
Were they dating, or just good friends?
