Kagen"Together We Will" Deceive

A copy of my post that I did from Kagen Watch.

In todays JSOnline DIANA MARRERO reports the link between Steve Kagen and Fannie Mae. We the taxpayers are bailing out everyone and their uncle to the tune of 700 Billion and then cannot get a straight answer from the Kagen camp. From the article.
"But Kagen’s campaign says it immediately returned the $1,000 contribution, eliminating the need to report the donation. Candidates don’t have to report contributions if they immediately return them, according to the Federal Election Commission. " JS Online: Kagen returned Fannie Mae’s donation
“It was an unsolicited donation,” spokesman Jake Rubin said in response to questions about why Kagen returned the money.

So they gave back the money immediately.
From dictionary .com.
im·me·di·ate·ly
–adverb
without lapse of time; without delay; instantly; at once: Please telephone him immediately.

So you receive money on July 23rd
and return it on August 29th
and you say you sent it back immediately.

38 days is immediate? Who is trying to fool who?

Let's see, "the dog ate my homework, my alarm never went off and we immediately gave back the money. Is this called Kagen speak? Does Steve Kagen and his staff think the voters of Wisconsin are suckers and idiots? Why wasn't the 38 day gap mentioned in the article. I give Diana Marrero from JS credit when she gets it right but on this one she dropped the ball or intentionally decided not to question the "immediate" 38 days.

Who is spinning this and who is believing it? Who is trying to deceive who?

The voters of the 8th district need to realize Steve Kagen is only out for himself and not for the people of the 8th district.

Steve Kagen tried to deceive his constituents again,

Steve Kagen needs to go back to private practice.
