Jon Corzine is the gift that keeps on giving for conservative bloggers!
- Former Governor Jon Corzine: Sugar Daddy for Corrupt Politicians!
His problems at MF Global are now common knowledge. We know $1.2 billion disappeared on his watch.
That’s “billion” with a “B,” Save Jerseyans.
Unsurprisingly, that didn’t stop our well-heeled former governor from raising $500,000 for Barack Obama this cycle alone! Click here to see his honorary “$500K+” designation on the President’s campaign donor website.
It goes without saying that President Obama’s campaign should immediately return the money. $1.2 billion is still unaccounted for; plenty of hard-working Americans lost their shirts including 38,000 farmers who have already filed suit against Corzine.
We know the president is perfectly comfortable surrounding himself with crony capitalists. And he’s pocketed plenty of campaign cash from Corzine’s efforts in the past. But wouldn’t you think he’d draw the line somewhere? Particularly in an election year?
Sometimes, I think he’s beyond caring… we’re too far below him!

Memo to Jon: check your car’s glove compartment. Ummm, you should probably pull over first.
[...] Lisa Jackson may be the least competent person in American public life to discuss energy development. I’d sooner attend a Jon Corzine lecture on forensic accounting! [...]
[...] And maybe he isn’t the most exciting kid at camp. I suspect he’d readily concede that point. For God’s sake: he wears more sweater vests than Jon Corzine! Truthfully, Corzine didn’t get exciting until he left office and started losing large sums of money. [...]
[...] It’s not $1.5 Billion, Save Jerseyans, and I know Carla Katz’s gifts were more opulent. [...]
