Actually, St. George is innocent. My real beef is with Hanna and the St. George Antiochian Orthodox Church. According to Hanna's campaign finance records, he accepted $1,000 from the St. George Charity Fund on 1/21/15. Not only is this contrary to state election laws, it also us contrary to the IRS ban on political activity by churches and charities.
Most of St. George's parishioners are from Syria, Greece or Allentown. There is no shortage of needy families in any of these places. I am appalled to see a charity fund perverted for a political campaign.
12:40 pm Update: St. George Slays the Blogger! - St. George does not just slay dragons. He gets bloggers, too. While the above posat is accurate, it fails to tell the complete story. In my effort to play gotcha', I failed to look at the post-primary report filed by the Hanna campaign. It reveals, quite clearly, that Hanna returned the $1,000 contribution made by the St. George Charity Fund. He returned the money on May 13, approximately four months after it was made. It likely dawned on someone in his camp, maybe Hanna himself, that this kind of contribution is unlawful.
Had I done a bit more research, this would not be a story. While the Church obviously abused its tax exempt status, the error was caught and rectified. I am quick to point out errors on campaign finance reports, so I have to acknowledge mny own mistake, and apologize to anyone who was misled by my faux pas.

a freshman attempt to set the record straight. Your unbalanced obsession with campaign finance is severe. You looked at all of Hanna's filings, but chose to spoil the pot with your usual outright lies to suit your agenda , which is categorical hatred of anyone successful in the public or private sphere.
ReplyDeleteIf you were not such an impotent cocksucker, Hanna may actually be offended. As usual, take it from the source.
My concer about campaign finance is well warranted, as evidenced by the federal investigation. But I am concerned about getting my facts right. So when I make a mistake, I have to admit it.
ReplyDeleteIt's been proven in the courts that Bernie isn't impotent. Read the transcript of Mezzacappa vs Ohare
ReplyDeleteBernie...the Lightbearer. Hold that torch high Bernie so as not to cast your own shadow. Let us see, and make them feel the heat, I don't give a Hoot who they are, or what Fraternity they come out of, living in truth and dying with dignity is all of my concern.

Shoot first ask questions later. Just takes one time.
ReplyDeleteThat's okay bernie hanna did give the money back but he is still pawlowski regime and abe 's puppet hopefully the feds investigate hanna too that double dipping crook
ReplyDeleteCorrecting a mistake? You'll never make it in journalism!!

Bernie you like to look up people keep digging in hanna's past he will find a lot of things wrong especially he is associated with all the people that were on the fbi list so bernie don't feel bad you made a mistake everything else on there is accurate good job
ReplyDeleteToss in a way to go asshole. Malign first check your facts later. How bout purging the blog instead of leaving this half truth in cyberspace forever. YOURS in Christ.
ReplyDeleteThis blog stays up as an indication of my error. Only anonymous cowards refuse to accept responsibility for their words.
ReplyDeleteYou are an irresponsible menace. You are the true coward. Attacking people and leaving your yellow journalism trail like a staph infection poisoning the internet. An oops my bad May be sufficient in your perverse moral universe but it is woefully inadequate and reprehensible.
ReplyDeleteYawn.
ReplyDeleteBernie you really didn't make a mistake .let me finish.that 1000 was giving to him from few om a committee.it was only after some of the syrian members balked was the money requested to be given back.otherwise he would still have it .if the McCall would print our articles you would see that a very large syrian population die support Mr zucal especially after the flag raising ceremony in whitehall where Mr hanna did not show up .so except for a little screw up you are right on the mark
