And this guy was a presidential nominee wannabe...
Va. doctor who lent governor’s firm $50,000 was offered medical board
appointment A Virginia Beach radiologist lent $50,000 to a real estate corporation owned by Gov. Robert F. McDonnell and his sister in 2010 — the same year the doctor was offered an appointment to a state medical board. Paul Davis, who said he met McDonnell in church and has been friends with the governor for about 12 years, said he believes the appointment offer was unrelated to the financial assistance he provided the governor. Davis said he declined the appointment because he believed it would take him away from his lucrative medical practice. But the loan offers a new example of how McDonnell’s personal finances became entangled with his public role as the governor struggled to keep up with payments on property investments he and his family made during the height of the real estate boom. Davis’s loan also appears to have been handled differently than a subsequent $70,000 payment made to the same real estate company by Jonnie R. Williams Sr., the chief executive of a dietary supplement company. Williams’s payment, as well as other money and gifts the executive provided to the governor’s family, are at the center of ongoing state and federal investigations. While Davis said he was sent regular monthly repayment checks by MoBo Real Estate Partners, three people familiar with the Williams transaction have said he was not repaid any money before last month, when McDonnell apologized to Virginians for the gifts scandal and announced he had repaid $124,000 to Williams. That payment was intended to return with interest Williams’s payment to MoBo, as well as $50,000 given by Williams to McDonnell’s wife Maureen in 2011. McDonnell said neither Williams nor his company, Star Scientific, received special treatment and that he had broken no laws. It also appears that McDonnell might have reported the loan from Davis on his financial disclosure form for 2010, whereas he did not disclose the loan from Williams in the same way. McDonnell (R) has said the $70,000 Williams payment did not need to be disclosed because Virginia law does not require elected officials to disclose their corporate liabilities. By that reasoning, it is unclear why he would have disclosed a corporate loan from Davis in 2010. On his financial disclosure form, McDonnell indicated that he received a loan from an individual creditor employed in the “medical services” field in 2010. He checked a box indicating that the loan ranged between $10,001 and $50,000. Both would match Davis’s loan. Virginia’s disclosure laws, considered some of the most lax in the country, make it impossible to confirm that the 2010 disclosure referred to Davis’s loan to MoBo. http://tinyurl.com/lh6kq86 - - - I don't give a damn about McDonnell, I'm just hoping some of the mess sticks to Ken Cuccinelli, the sleaze GOP attorney general of Virginia, who wants to succeed the current governor. |

Clinton never did. 5. The GOP has selected another morally challenged candidate to succeed McDonnell. |

Thank you, Scott. I am just giving you a hint of what to expect if Hillary actually gets the nomination. Remember that at the time, they were saying this was really Hillary's deal and Bill was really not involved that much (Rose law firm, McDougals etc). I bet it will all come back. Personally I don't care but you seem to be the one hung up on allegations of financial misdealing among selected governors but only the republicans, not the democrats. Blagojevich, McGreevey etc Although it is not financial malfeasance I understand O'Malley may be in trouble over the management of the Md prison system. Considering all the recent crap covering the GOP wannabes, no one is going to give a **** about allegations that went nowhere against Hillary. |
