"BATO" SAY IT AIN'T SO!!

With that kind of cash laid out, I sure hope little Suzie is BBBJNQNS.

For someone who's supposedly a 4th generation Irish american, i laughed when i read the reason he's called Bato, is its a spanish shortened version of roberto...



BUT i agree, the media IS seeming to ignore it was his daddy dearest who got him out of both a DUI and a theft charge. Originally Posted by garhkal

you could explain this away as youthful indiscretion, including the DUI.


O'Rourke was arrested by University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) police in 1995 on burglary charges after jumping a fence on the university’s property.[13][14] The UTEP police department later declined to pursue charges.[14] In 1998 O'Rourke was arrested on DWI charges, but the charges were later dismissed in 1999 after he completed a court-recommended DWI program.[11][13][14]

this however isn't easy to wash away.

In 2013, LegiStorm reported that O'Rourke may have violated the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act, which prohibits members of Congress from participating in the initial public offering (IPO) of company stocks. O'Rourke had purchased seven stocks, including stock in Twitter, at IPO prices, seeing a 39 percent increase on shares that he sold either the same day or within days of IPOs. After being contacted by LegiStorm,

O'Rourke reported himself to the United States House Committee on Ethics.[80][81] The case was closed by the ethics committee after O'Rourke acknowledged that he may have violated the law and agreed to sell his remaining IPO shares and surrender his $7,136 in profit to the U.S. Treasury.[82][83]

he was 40 when that happened. kinda hard to sell youthful indiscretion yeah?

nope. wasn't a Texas resident while she was in office. that would have been an illegal vote, yeah? hahahahaaaaa

When Ruth Ginsberg dies, I hope I'm alive to celebrate just like the liberals celebrated the death of the distinguished Justice Scalia, perhaps the greatest associate Justice of the supreme Court since Roger B. Taney.
