Hey, We Should So Do This!

April 17, 2015 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Okay, we’ve talked before about “unauthorized” PACs.  That’s where someone opens a superPAC, claims to be supporting a candidate or cause and rakes in the money.  This is living proof that Republicans knew what they were doing when they created superPACs – somebody makes money off somebody else’s work, keeps it anonymous and spends it however they want to.  That’s the Republican business model.

Sometimes it’s kinda hard to tell if a SuperPAC is real or a scam.  I’m betting scam on this one.  It’s based in San Antonio, Texas.

If you go look around at this site by clicking here, you’ll notice that nobody’s name is on it.  And, it looks grandpa built the site.  They do have a Facebook page.

However, at the FEC it’s listed as owned by Phillips W. Ireland.  He lives in Tennessee.  The assistant treasurer of the PAC says he lives in San Antonio.  He claims his name is Anthony Lee Gilley.  There is no Anthony Lee Gilley registered to vote anywhere in Texas.  You’d think someone that supportive of Ted Cruz would register to vote.  Or not.  Maybe not.

The good news is that this PAC does have a headquarters.  The bad news is that it’s at a post office.  I’m betting that it’s kinda small.  Or stuffed full of money.  Maybe.

I’m betting that both of these guys are geniuses.  My bet is that they are both Rand Paul supporters getting the Cruz supporters to waste money.

You know, we could do that, too.  Thelma needs an exploratory campaign cruise to the Bahamas.  I need a new campaign car and Verdelia needs a Republican headquarters/doublewide over at the trailer park.

You gotta love Republicans for coming up with this idea.

Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for finding the fun.

 

Be social and share!

  2. Set it up! You too can milk that teabagger money. Naturally you will use it help get Democrats elected…right? Sounds like a win-win situation to me. As long as it won’t get you, Thelma and Verdelia arrested. You’re needed on the outside.

  3. how come all the Democrat’s that decide to steal money they get caught? I always thought the Republicans were the dumb ones..hmmmm

  4. So there are two ways to make money hand over fist in America for virtually no work: start a church or start a superPAC. The church is tax-free (gnashing of my teeth), so that may be the better route.

    One way to get rich quick! Screwball PACs are a San Antonio specialty. Remember the Willie Horton ads? They came out of SA, also.

    If not for the time it would require, starting a Cruz, it rhymes with Ruse-PAC holds a certain attraction. Maybe Daffy Cruz, Sr. would lend his assistance, if he were made campaign manager. Yes indeed, sending Daffy the Dominionist, Sr. out front and center with a microphone seems the least we could do to help Daffy, Jr.

  7. “crusader” That turned me off immediately. They would not even get my Confederate money! No sir! no way!

  8. Let’s hope all those Repug fools and all their money are parted, leaving an incredulous Carl Rove shocked and horrified…again.

    Colbert did an absolutely hilarious expose` of this scam on his show; he had a couple of very good attorneys explaining the single page filing and the ins and outs of using the money and how to make it all completely legal.

    If I remember correctly, they accumulated almost $750K before they decided to give up the joke. They donated the money to a few charitable organizations.

    Between The Church of Scientology religious scam and the Super-PACs, it’s amazing we still have any kind of society left.

    Monty, great list for the Imbeciles PAC, but let’s add Donald Trump, Imbecile Extraordinaire.

    They switched to Cruz after they figured the couldn’t get any more money from running the Aaron Schock PAC.

  14. It’s bound to be legit. I mean, look at that logo. It’s got flames and all, just like Ted’s.

    This might be a waste of money, but the TP seems to have a never ending supply of it. Way back, 20 or more years ago, the Bakkers (they couldn’t even spell their name right) asked people to send in money so their name could go on the “wall of faith” or something like that. Imagine sending in your Social Security money for an air conditioned doghouse.
