The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is urging Democrats to sign a petition to get Republicans to return Tom DeLay’s “dirty money”. Of course, there’s been no court case yet, so whether it’s dirty is yet to be seen.

However, this money has already been declared “dirty”.

Former U.S. Rep. Frank Ballance, a North Carolina Democrat, was sentenced to four years in prison on Oct. 12 for conspiring to divert taxpayer money to his friends and family through the charitable organization he founded in 1985.

But almost two weeks later, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee still has not returned the thousands of dollars in “dirty money” that Ballance contributed to the DCCC, the National Republican Congressional Committee wants everyone to know.

The NRCC said based on press reports, it appears that the DCCC has no plans to return the $29,500 that Ballance contributed to its coffers.

And Ballance isn’t the DCCC’s only “dirty money” contributor. The NRCC noted that third-quarter Federal Election Commission reports show the DCCC has not yet returned $5,000 donated by a Chicago attorney who pled guilty to attempted extortion.

Just last month, the DCCC said it would return contributions from donors who plead guilty but it isn’t happening, the NRCC said.

The Democrats of Oz. Pay no attention to the piles of dirty money behind the curtain.
