Quoted from Box A Rox
No one has even bothered to offer an explanation.  

I expected the RP Groupies would rally to his defense with RP's side of the story.

Apparently there is no defense.
Only "nothing to see here, move along, move along, this is an old SCANDAL (oops) story."


There is nothing to say because it has already been said, it was the Ron Paul supporters who wanted Benton fired because of his actions, there is tons of videos and articles out there calling for his removal, where were you and the left back then, you guys were silent. Maybe you can claim this is the 1st you heard of it but to others it was not, sorry you were late to the party.

Another debunked scandal which even the liberal media admitted was nothing but a wrongfully accused smear attempt, keep going box your 2 for 2 now in failed scandals.

Aug. 6, 2013

Emails show discussion about Ron Paul campaign paying Kent Sorenson

“That’s $88,000 for Sorenson, $20,000 for Chris Dorr, and $100,000 for the newly created
state PAC,”.


Strange, this "OLD NEWS" is in Tuesday's Newspaper.  
(Sounds like someone is trying to run from the truth)

IN HIS OWN WORDS, SORENSON CONFIRMS PAYMENT
FOR RON PAUL'S ENDORSEMENT!


Quoted Text
TheIowaRepublican.com has obtained a recording of a phone conversation between
State Senator Kent Sorenson and Dennis Fusaro.  The call was recorded just days
after Sorenson abruptly abandoned Michele Bachmann’s campaign and publicly
endorsed Ron Paul.  Along with confirming the payment a representative of the Paul
campaign made to Sorenson, the recorded conversation also appears to indicate that
Sorenson was considering withdrawing from the Paul campaign almost immediately after
announcing his support for Paul.

The recording features Sorenson explaining how the Ron Paul campaign’s
Deputy National Campaign Manager, Demitri Kesari, met with Sorenson and his wife at
a restaurant where, Sorenson says, his wife was presented and accepted a check
while he was in the bathroom.



But, but... these news reports are from Tuesday and from Wednesday... Henry and Cicero
assured me that this is "OLD NEWS".  
Can they be attempting to cover up this RON PAUL SCANDAL?  Would they deceive a fellow
board member in an attempt to hide political BRIBERY???

Open Secrets.Org who's speciality is pollitical corruption seems to be interested in this "OLD STORY".

Ron Paul Campaign Accused of Trying to Buy Iowa Endorsements

(It appears that the Ron Paul Bribery Scandal goes beyond a few staffers right up to Ron Paul's
own family.)


Quoted Text
The negotiations appear to have involved several top Ron Paul
2012 officials, including Jesse Benton, pictured with Ron Paul (below), who
was the campaign's political director. Benton is married to Ron Paul’s
granddaughter



With Ron Paul and his family so deeply implicated in this SCANDAL, can Ron Paul's own son, Rand Paul
be involved in the political bribes and back room deals?

Yes I'm glad you agree it's a "SCANDAL".  Some RP Groupies seem to be in denial.

Yes Cicero... "OLD NEWS", you keep telling us.  
BTW, it also took two years from the time the Watergate Break In was first reported
till Nixon Resigned.

Thanks for proving my point that this is old news, why would me and others bring up Jesse Benton if they're now just using his name in the stories, how would me and others know about it, because it is old and you are late to the party

Now you see those fake scandals which actually had people killed are not news, no the real news is a story that broke 2 years ago Funny how box ignores the fact that it was the Paul supporters who were actually going after this and demanding Benton be fired, he wants to believe we are the ones trying to cover it up, like I said he is late to the party.

NBC News  August 6, 2013,
(That's 2 days ago, not 2 years ago.)



Sorenson is facing a list of allegations that money was the reason why,
“I had a conversation with Kent Sorenson, and in the direct conversation that I had
with him, he told me that he was offered money, he was offered a lot of money by the
Ron Paul campaign,”

Michelle Bachmann


"Offered a lot of money by the Ron Paul Campaign."
"Move on move on.  Nothing to see here,  just a little political bribery."  Nothing new for
the Ron Paul Campaign.

Yes, we're getting to that.  Demanding Benton be fired... it's called a COVER UP!
