.........and funny how the story is only surfacing now, after the elections.
the story line reads "owned by M.M" Where does it say "but not really"... nonetheless i dont doubt lots of pols get drug money

Its the way of Modern Politics. If you can defeat your opponent at the ballet box go after him personally. Look at Trent Lott of Miss. He was force to step down on a off color remark on Strom Thurman's Birthday.

I agree and can you imagine the people "looking into" this from the WH right now? Chances are next to zero MM knew anything about it and less than zero he was involved in any way,shape, form or fashion,but if the WH could make a tiny connection,man what a media circus

Mcconnell has dreamed for at least 30 years of having the position he is "fixin' " to get and I highlt doubt he would take any chances now...I have to admit I would be tickled to death if he was involved,but no chance imho.

This is how non-heterosexuals and feminist operate as well. Say one thing and do the other.

Yup. And how would McConnell control the media, most of which doesn't like him or his party?

Of course we are speaking to the ABC net works and the MSNC of the world. The problem however, is the mainstream media credibility is lacking with America, Most can not trust the stories that Maddow and my favorite crazy man Chris Mathews.

The Aftermath may be some very good investigating reporting to improve their image.

How is the Senator responsible for a cargo ship owned by his in laws and leased to a third party?

Considering that anyone, from anywhere , can make an anonymous donation of unlimited money to a Super Pac, it 's a tad naive to think that some of the money is not sourced from drug and human trafficking, all over the world.
