Michigan Republican Representative John Moolenaar spent $22,839 from his leadership PAC on fun and games in Colorado.

The vast majority of the money went to the Four Seasons Hotel in Vail, Colorado, some snowmobiling, and assorted other stuff that doesn’t help him get elected.

His PAC is named: Together United for Liberty, Integrity and Prosperity PAC.  I thought that was a rather strange arrangement of words so I looked at it again. It spells out TULIP. Okay, why tulip?  Why would somebody go to all the trouble unless it meant something?

It does.  He represents a district where the Holland, Michigan, Tulip Festival is held.

See, that’s just not right.  You name your political money-gathering tool after a big festival they’ve been holding for 90 years and then you spend that money illegally on pleasure for yourself.

That’s not a good thing.  That’s a damn shameful thing.
