Jesse Jackson Jr. Under Federal Probe for Using Campaign Money to Decorate His Home
Posted by Jammie on Oct 14, 2012 at 8:52 pm
This guy hasn’t worked in several months while being treated for mental illness, but somehow manages to stay in office. Now there’s yet another reason to send him packing.
The Jacksons put their Washington D.C. home on the market last month at a price of $2.5 million. The listing was public and included the property’s address as well as multiple photos of the inside of the home. A campaign spokesman said at the time that home was put on the market to pay for mounting medical bills.
How does someone making Congressman money afford a$2.5 million house? And if his wife is an alderman in Chicago, why does she live in DC?

The answer to the question: how can they afford to maintain two very expensive homes in two very expensive cities? They are race racketeers, just like Dear Old Dad. They are shake down artists ginning up controversies. They run a protection racket giving corporations that donate absolution on racial issues. It’s good work if you can get it.
One of the things that enrages me about each story on him is this idea that he’s on leave. There’s no one to grant him “leave.” The United States House of Representatives is not his employer. It can’t grant a member sick leave or any other leave. He’s answerable to his constituents alone. And he’s been AWOL for months now.
Finally, I know that when I’m depressed the first thing I do is re-decorate. So the expenditures are understandable. It’s therapy. However, it might not be legal.

Another example of the 1% gone wild.

I wonder if he will spend any time in jail like John Rowland in Connecticut did when he was caught doing a similar thing? Let’s see, Jackson black, Rowland white. Nope! Won’t do a minute in jail, Eric Holder won’t let “his people” pay for their misdeeds because of all the past suffering they experienced at the hand of whitey.

Who’s buying the ‘house needs to be sold to pay for mounting medical bills’? We’re talking Congress’s gold-plated medical plan here! I doubt he’s been out of pocket much past $1,000, if that.
However, if we’re talking about ‘prescriptions filled without a prescription’ at Balliol Brothers Pharmacy, ‘just go to the back and say Necessity sent you’, well, I could see JJJ spooning a couple mil up his (and his girlfriend’s) nose. As far as I know, Congress doesn’t cover recreational drug expense for themselves, at least not yet.

If memory serves, JJJr. also had the something called “the beer concession” in Chicago which is one those very lurative crony monopoly things they give to Democrats to make money on.
