Is Charlie Crist Unethical Using Bill Signings for Campaign Fundraising? You betcha!

While typing in the labels for this post, it shows very clearly why Crist and Obama get along so well as they share the same arrogance, no ethics, no core values, and use their position to campaign on the taxpayer's money.

The fact that Crist wants the Senate Dems to endorse him instead of the Democrat candidate shows that Crist is not only a prima donna but has a total lack of understanding what loyalty means. Meeks has been a lifelong Democrat but because Crist is now No Party he expects Reid and Obama to throw Meeks overboard for him. If that is not arrogance nothing is.

What makes the Democrats think that Crist won't flip flop again? Anyone who trusts Charlie Crist needs to let me know as we have some swamp land in Arizona for sale!

08.03.10 AP Looks At Crist’s Use Of Taxpayer Money For Little More Than Campaign Events
Just a week after Marco outlined his 12 simple ways to cut government spending, The Associated Press posts a lengthy article about Crist wasting taxpayer money on ceremonial bill signings, a practice he has taken to new levels and often mixes with campaign events. In some cases, “campaign fundraisers were held in the same area where bill signings were earlier that day” thereby “reducing travel costs for his campaign.” All this leads to the question, is Charlie Crist campaigning on the taxpayers’ dime?

“Crist has made frequent use of the legally unnecessary events”: It’s not unusual for Florida governors to hold such ceremonial bill signings on important or popular measures. But Crist has made frequent use of the legally unnecessary events, which usually happen weeks or even months after the official signing. An Associated Press analysis found Crist has held about 90 ceremonial signings during his nearly four years in office, while his predecessor, Republican Jeb Bush, held about 65 during eight years. – The Associated Press
