Dear fellow tax hikers, recent filings have shown that our beloved Congresswoman Jean Schmidt raised exactly zero dollars for her Legal Expense Fund in this year's 2nd quarter. Schmidt raised only $5010 total in prior quarters. At this rate, she will pay off the approximately $515,000 she owes in a future century.
In reality, even that is an optimistic scenario. Legal experts generally agree that the order from the House Ethics Committee to pay these legals bills carries no weight once Schmidt is no longer a Congressman. The only way those bills will be paid is if Jean Schmidt proves to be a woman of great integrity. LOL LOL LOL LOL!
As all of our readers know, these legal fees were incurred during a lawsuit Schmidt filed against David Krikorian because he said something mean about her. Her case was handled by Turkish interests and over $500,000 of legal fees were paid for by the Turkish Coalition of America, violating Congressional gift rules by, oh, over $500,000. Schmidt insists that she had no idea she was receiving these illegal gifts.
We completely believe that a U.S. Congressman can take illegal gifts of over $500,000 and not know about it. It happens to us all the time!
We applaud Jean Schmidt for filing a lawsuit because somebody said something mean about her. We applaud her for illegally accepting over $500,000 of gifts. We applaud her for failing to report those gifts. We applaud her for defying the House Ethics Committee's order to repay those funds. We are still very upset that she was defeated in March's primary by some conservative man who served his country in the military. With a record like this, who could ever want to see Jean Schmidt ejected from Congress?

You go girl! Don't let some male-dominated committee tell you what to do. If my friend Jean wants to illegally received $500,000 from foreign interests then she should. Now I've got to get back to "managing" my empty office complex.
Since I donated another $1000 to Schmidt this cycle I suppose I could donate to her legal expense fund but why would I when we all know she can thumb her nose at the "Ethics" Committee once she's out of Congress. Boy we're gonna miss Jean!
I remain proud of my family's decision to campaign for Sister Jean Schmidt against that heinous conservative military man Brad Wenstrup. We in Hamilton County deserve someone of Schmidt's ethics and big government values.
Not only did I support Sister Jean, I also donated to Democrat Jim O'Reilly on October 19, 2006 when he was running against Pat Dinkelacker. By that point he was already running the tv ad that led to him getting sanctioned by The Ohio Supreme Court.
Jim O'Reilly AND Jean Schmidt, I love to support ethically-challenged candidates who will raise my taxes. So does the rest of my family. Gots to run, I got an important swim meet in 3 days....which requires me to perform the strenuous task of sitting on my butt and watching others do the work.
Jean Schmidt needs to spend less on legal fees and more on her wardrobe. One good thing about being out of elective office is that she won't need to spend any more time around those smelly, inbred west Siders.
I don't feel embarrassed at all about the contribution I made to Jean Schmidt on 10/26/11. We needed to defeat Wenstrup. Michelle Schneider will back me.
I probably should do something useful today. But why bother when someone else did all the work to beat Jean Schmidt in the primary and I just get to drink at festivals and walk in parades until Election Day? Then in January, I can become Brad's district director and make twice what I was making in the courthouse. Loyalty to Alex T has its rewards.
As a former Tax Hiker of the Year winner I back Weidman 100%. I donated big bucks to Jean because we share a sisterhood in raising taxes and growing government. Some of my best days were tax-hiking with Governor Taft and Jean Schmidt in the State House.
Does Jean Schmidt still owe me any money? Boy I hope not or I'll never get it now.
Well I have always remained good friends with Jean because of everything she did to raise taxes for my Convention Center. All the other taxes she raised were great too.
