Dems Stimulate Dem Pollster With Gift of $6 Million in Stimulus Cash

It’s nice to be with the in crowd… when you’re blowing other people’s money.
Democratic pollster Mark Penn was gifted $6 million in Stimulus money from his buddies in Washington.
The Hill reported, via Jammie Wearing Fool:

Nearly $6 million in stimulus money was paid to two firms run by Mark Penn (photo above), Hillary Clinton’s pollster in 2008.

Federal records show that $5.97 million from the $787 billion stimulus helped preserve three jobs at Burson-Marsteller, the global public-relations and communications firm headed by Penn.

Burson-Marsteller won the contract to work on a public-relations campaign to advertise the national switch from analog to digital television. Nearly $2.8 million of the contract was issued to Penn’s polling firm, Penn, Schoen & Berland Associates, according to federal records.

But at least democrats created or saved 3 jobs with that $6 million in Stimulus cash.
That’s important.

If private individuals did this, it would be called bribery. Maybe Holder will look into prosecuting those responsible. LOL

When the Blowhard said he was going to pay her campaign debts, I assumed it was going to come from his stash, the same stash that the parasites in this country believe is going to be handed out to them. But it’s all being stolen from the American taxpayers. The hope is a hoax, and the change is only for the worse.
