Ohio Pols Live Out Their Ideals 0
Nothing I can say beats the unvarnished facts:
Lucas County Commissioner Maggie Thurber, Toledo City Councilwoman Betty Shultz, former Toledo Mayor Donna Owens and former state Rep. Sally Perz were fined $1,000 each on misdemeanor charges of failing to report gifts worth more than $75.
They were accused of receiving money from prominent GOP donor Tom Noe, then contributing it to President Bush’s re-election campaign in their own names in an alleged scheme by Noe to skirt laws limiting individual contributions to $2,000.
It’s the GOP’s Contract on America.

Expired link to the Contract on America fixed, thanks to a heads-up from a reader.
