Republican S.C. Treasurer Thoms Ravenel Blows Cocaine.. gets BUSTED!



Oh God, how did I let this one slip by me?

Republican Cocaine User also known as the South Carolina Treasurer Thomas Ravenel is a former real estate developer who became a rising political star after his election in 2006. He was indicted June 19, 2007, on federal cocaine charges.

Good god, no sooner than I can finish writing about one republican liar/bribe/corrupt case another one creeps out about cocaine use.
Will it ever stop?

Here, you can read about Thomas Ravenel the Republican, Family Values, South Carolina Treasurer’s use of cocaine here and here.

What an embarrassment to republicans. To think, gasp, that one of their own was… gasp… doing drugs! OMG!

Such is the life of a republican, millionaire, liar and drug user.
"The millionaire is accused of buying less than 500 grams of the drug to share with other people in late 2005, U.S. Attorney Reggie Lloyd said. Ravenel, 44, is charged with distribution of cocaine, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. The investigation into Ravenel arose from a drug case last year in Charleston, Lloyd said. State Law Enforcement Division Chief Robert Stewart said his agents were aware of the allegations before Ravenel was elected in November, but they didn't have enough information to pursue criminal charges.
The case was turned over to the FBI in April. "The investigation is just beginning," the federal prosecutor said. The man accused of selling Ravenel the drug, Michael L. Miller, is in custody on the same charge. Ravenel will be allowed to turn himself in, authorities said. The treasurer's office referred all questions to Ravenel's lawyer Joel Collins, who did not return a message left at his office. "

Thats great... Your doing research.

Look at that. Useless information. You still can't define what the political persuasion of a neocon is.

Yet you can bury your head hiding behing self describing terms like cognitive dissonance.

I've finally figured you out.

Your a victim looking for a tyrant. Your looking to project your blame to excuse your inability to control your life.

Thats why you have all that anger. Similar to the racists in the 60's blaming people of color as an excuse. You need to find a total class of individuals to project your narrow unexamined life's problems onto.
