Sentences[edit]
Allen Raymond was sentenced to five months in federal prison on February 8, 2005, for his role. A month later, Charles McGee received seven months. James Tobin refused to cooperate with investigators as his trial approached. During Tobin's trial, questions arose about the source of the money involved in funding the phone jamming and his defense.
In July, the Union Leader reported that one of Tobin's attorneys told the court he was representing the defendant in his capacity as an employee of the Republican National Committee (RNC).[13] Since the RNC had stated that Tobin was acting on his own in a rogue operation, it was asked, why would they be paying for his defense?
In August, the RNC finally confirmed that it had spent more than $722,000 for Tobin's defense by the Washington firm of Williams & Connolly. "This support is based on his assurance and our belief that Jim has not engaged in any wrongdoing," a spokesperson told the Associated Press.[14] The Union Leader reported in February 2006 that the RNC had paid $1.7 million to Williams on the day Tobin was sentenced, for a total of $2.5 million, and would neither confirm nor deny that it was still paying his legal expenses.[15] The RNC's first financial report of 2006 indicated that it by then spent another $330,000.[16] Later that year, Tobin's wife was hired by the NRSC as a consultant on the unsuccessful re-election campaign of Rhode Island senator Lincoln Chafee, as Northeast Strategies, a company that listed the Tobins' home as its main address. Despite her lack of any previous experience, she was paid at $300,000.[17]
On August 28, Marshall reported[13] that two Indian tribes, the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians and the Mississippi Choctaw, known clients of influential lobbyist Jack Abramoff, himself at the center of a widening scandal, had made $5,000 contributions[18] (the legal maximum) to the NHGOP the week of the election in 2002. Neither was known to have any interest in New Hampshire. Later, staffers for Judd Gregg, New Hampshire's senior senator and also a Republican, explained that they had passed along the checks without his knowledge.[19]

your link does not prove what you claim it proves. That is why you are such a waste of space on this forum. You are stupid.
And it isn't what you don't know that makes you so fucking annoying. It is what you think you know that is completely fucking wrong that makes you so fucking annoying. Think about this Deshy Dearest. You have been banned from every other forum you have been on. Even your fellow lefties here call you obnoxious and stupid. But instead of reflecting on how you present yourself, it only makes you that much more cocksure about "how right you are". That is classic delusions with narcissistic tendencies.
Back to the ignore bin you go.

You cry and whine about wanting civil debate from me.
And then you ban me from making an attempt.
That my friends is the very essence of two-faced.
Good. That's all it took? Please leave again, you've worn out your welcome and you are a grade A idiot.
never has happened. You are not intelligent. You just spam news articles and then when something comes to fruition you pretend that you had some knowledge about something when you probably couldn't even read what you posted.
Don't agree with desh? Your decency as a human being must be called into question.
