Please allow me to introduce you to Congressweazle Kevin Brady, another Republican from east Texas. Brady had long been known as one of the best friends of the Texas Alcohol Commission because he single handedly tried to drink all the alcohol in Texas.
In 2005, he plead no-contest to DWI in South Dakota. He got a $350 fine and his right to drive in South Dakota was suspended for 30 days.
He’s kinda a jerk.
Last week, Brady’s PAC, the Making America Prosperous PAC, got a letter from the Federal Election Commission saying that his financial report was a damn mess.
Schedule A of your reports for the 2016calendar year combined, discloses transfers totaling $80,000from the “Brady Victory Fund”, which is a joint fundraising committee affiliated with your committee. The sum of memo Schedule A is less than the total amount transferred. Please note that the sum of memo Schedule A supporting a transfer(s) from a joint fundraising committee should be greater than or equal to the amount of the transfer(s).
In short, there’s some money missing.
There’s one other thing you need to know about Kevin Brady – he’s chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee. But, you know, I’m totally sure that his calculations on the Obamacare replacement are totally just fine. Totally.
God help us.
Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.

…. well c’mon, somedamnbody’s gotta learn ‘im!
(Course, maybe he’d learn faster if I was talkin’ pints and quarts.)
1Poor Kevin, he was calculated, again. But such is the fate of snacilbupeR politicians. Question remains, when will any of these cheats ever pay a price? What price? I dunno … maybe something apropos like a 500lb abacus dropped on their heads from the top of the Capitol dome as they stand on the steps lying.

2JAKvirginia, if you explained to Kevin that a liter of booze is larger than a quart, he’d trample you on his way back to his office to call someone to write legislation for him to introduce converting US measurements to metrics. If they think it benefits them, the snacilbupeR aren’t as st00pid as they look. The challenge is demonstrating to them how things do benefit them shy of injecting them with smallpox to demonstrate the benefits of vaccines, or breaking their legs to show how a healthy person might suddenly need medical care.
3Ol’ Kevin Brady seems to have some sort of “Picture Of Dorian Gray” thing going on; he looks to have aged about 30 years in the time since he was my representative, about 15 years ago. Must be a rough lifestyle or something. And those problems with the “Brady Victory Fund” money? I would have been stunned if there HADN’T been such discrepancies.
4OMG! Remember Bill Clinton yelling from the podium at a previous convention, “Arithmetic!!!” Wonder how many R’s had to resort to a dictionary for that!
5The Difference between a Psychotic and Neurotic:
A psychotic thinks that two and two are five.
A neurotic knows two and two are four — but it worries him.
Guess what that makes this guy.
6It sickens me to talk about Kevin Brady. He “represents” the 8th District of Texas, once represented by a lion of Texas Democrats, Bob Eckhardt. Bob was grand-nephew of a Democratic Congressman, the nephew of nacilbupeR Congressman and a cousin of the King Ranch Klebergs. In short, a walking, talking piece of Texas history, wrapped in an affable personality and marinaded in Service as an obligation to being born ever, ever so stinking rich. Congressman Eckhardt was swept away in 1980 by Ronald Reagan’s coattails and the normal people of the 8th District have suffered under snacilbupeR Jack Fields for 16ish years and Kevin Brady since 1996.
