...You Still Can't Now, And Tomorrow Won't Be Any Different"
OK, that's a screenshot of the MN GOP's latest Federal Elections Commission ("FEC") filing, signed just over a week ago (December 20th, 2011). Look at Line 10 - "Debts and Obligations Owed BY the Committee" - and the number, "$542,005.12."
As reported to the FEC, just over a week ago.
What do we see reported today, here in the land of FEC Tony Sutton, the recently deposed Burrito Barron of the MN GOP?
Sources: State GOP debt is about $2 million

An internal review of the Republican Party of Minnesota’s finances has determined that the party is responsible for about $2 million in debts, according to two sources familiar with the findings. That’s nearly twice as much as previously thought.
According to these sources, party officials will report about $1.3 million in debt when they announce the findings of the probe at a press conference on Friday. But that figure does not include a number of debts that the party reportedly plans to contest, including roughly $450,000 in legal bills stemming from the 2010 gubernatorial recount. (more, here)
Why does anybody believe ANYTHING today's GOP says??!?
And as I write this, the MN State GOP is conducting a "debate" to replace FEC Tony (deposed for financial mismangement) --- and a leading "candidate" is a (I am NOT making this up) former ENRON lobbyist??!?
You Couldn't Trust The GOP Then, You Still Can't Now, And Tomorrow Won't Be Any Different
