Super PAC Fun in the Sun
Okay, so there a new SuperPac that is apparently cause for great celebration.
It’s called The Sons and Daughter of America. I kinda feel like the word Dammit ought to be in there somewhere, but it isn’t. Come to think of it, somebody should hire me to think of names for these semi-criminal enterprises.
You can feast your eyes upon this endeavor to raise money for politically nefarious (my opinion only because all SuperPAC are nefarious) or personal income purposes.
Zack’s own picture
The owner of this PAC is a 21 year old guy named Zachary John Cossum. He tells the FEC that his mailing address is in Kingwood, Texas, but he tells Texas voter registration that his mailing address is in San Antonio, Texas.
It is interesting to me that Zachary John Cossum hasn’t been all that interested in politics before now. He registered to vote in March of 2012 and promptly voted in the Republican Primary. He didn’t vote in the general election that year nor has he voted even one damn time since then.
He’s been busy, you see, with the Travis County Sheriff’s Department. On July 10th, 2015, a mere ten days before filing as a big time political fundraiser …
Hey, it’s a Friday night. He’s 21. We all make mistakes.
But it just goes to show you that (1) anydamnbody can open a political PAC, (2) you should never give money to a political PAC because Zak is probably on the other end, and (3) Citizens United sucks. Big time.
Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.
What do you want to bet that Zac’s Republican dad told him how to do it? “Hey, son, this is how you live off of the rubes.”
1Another wannabee grifter.
2Dude can party like it’s 1999 and grow up to be another town drunk or let the Grifter life turn him into a male Bristol Palin.
Either way, I’m sure his parents will be very proud – after he get’s out of prison the first time.
3My experience in Austin is that public intoxication will not get you arrested. You get arrested for being a jerk while publically intoxicated. And for Zak, that seems like a reasonable explanation.
4I think daddy’s a criminal attorney, so….
5Weellll, I don’t think that particular pose is going to garner many donations from conservatives.
And he probably couldn’t buy a cake at a bakery, either.
Just sayin’.
6Dang. Now that I’ve declared my candidacy to the world of Juanita Jean’s and science fiction, I feel constrained from saying all I otherwise might about this young person. A certain sea chantey keeps running through my head, and those who appreciate classical Green statuary of a certain period,and Mary Renault’s Greek-based historical novels…and sea chanteys…will know which one is that is. Further this deponent sayeth not. (Blame one J. MacDonald, who wrote the book on sea chanteys. Warning: have a jug of brain bleach handy.)
7Please, no flack about this cuz I know of what I speak.
Skinny, jazz hands gesture, leg in air, prissy smile…
8He’s either a mister-sister or cabin boy on Lindsey Graham’s yacht.
