Okay, okay, with the help of Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen we have undercovered some of the nastiest scam PAC whatnots happening right here in the good ole USA.

This one is kinda “hey, come over here and let me punch you in the face” scam.  These guys are pretending to be raising money to fight for veterans in congress. They even have the nerve to put this manner of crapola on the internet.  It’s called the American Coalition for Crisis Relief PAC and they ask for your help.

They have raised $3.5 million dollars to lobby for veteran issues.

Let’s look at the second quarter of this year to see their latest filing with the FEC.

The scam PAC raised over $500,000 in the second quarter and spent $0 on candidates. All of the money it raised went to “operating expenditures.”

Oh, and there’s more. They have paid themselves nicely for running the PAC.

And they also paid consultants at this place.

Let me save you the trouble of looking up the address — it’s something called Lashed and Laced, and it looks legitimate.

It’s on the end there.  I thought it was a hair salon and Lord knows I trust hair salons with political activism, but Thelma informed me that Lashed and Laced is most likely a line of ladies basement boudoir accessories and corsets. So, it’s probably an S&M shop, which, even if you don’t think too hard about it, might actually be the best place to hire congressional lobbyist.

So, I dunno.

Reminder:  do not give money to any PAC unless you are very sure who runs that sucker.
