Captain Anti-Tax Norquist Trying To Defraud Tax Payers

The hero. The idol. The man they set up on a pedestal for the entire conservative movement is now implicated in the Jack Abramoff scandal:

Five conservative nonprofit organizations, including one run by prominent Republican Grover Norquist, “perpetrated a fraud” on taxpayers by selling their clout to lobbyist Jack Abramoff, Senate investigators said in a report issued today.

The report includes previously unreleased e-mails between the now-disgraced lobbyist and officers of the nonprofit groups, showing that Abramoff routed money from his clients to the groups. In exchange the groups, among other things, produced ostensibly independent newspaper op-ed columns or press releases that favored the clients’ positions.

Officers of the groups “were generally available to carry out Mr. Abramoff’s requests for help with his clients in exchange for cash payments,” said the report, issued by the Democratic members of the Senate Finance Committee after a one-year investigation.

So if you don’t like taxes then that means you should be able to take them from people? If that is the new way of thinking in our country then I hate marijuana and will now take it from people (for proper disposal of course 😉 )
