Man, the updates to Culture of Corruption just keep piling up. Here’s another one for my Clinton and Money Men chapters:
The U.S. attorney in New York on Tuesday charged a New York investor and major Democratic fund-raiser with a $74 million scheme to defraud Citigroup Inc (C.N).
Hassan Nemazee, 59, was charged with one count of [...]

“Resource.”

Just got word that Culture of Corruption will top the New York Times best-seller list for the third week in a row.
Thanks again for continuing to support the book and spread the word!
You can catch me on Hannity tonight on FNC at 9pm Eastern and on Fox and Friends tomorrow at 7:15am Eastern talking about [...]

Hey, anyone wanna buy Obama crony Tony Rezko’s foreclosed mansion?

Culture of Corruption: It’s bottomless.

That’s the implicit message of this screed from the Chronicle of Higher Education.

Have you read the book? Go flag yourself!

Got word this afternoon that Culture of Corruption has held steady at #1 on the New York Times best-seller list for the second week in a row. Still have a long way to go to match my friend Mark Levin’s amazing success, but the response to the book has been humbling and heartening. Sean Hannity [...]

“…you should have exercised more vigilance.”

Scroll for updates…4th printing, 300,000+ copies now in print…

On July 27, we launched Culture of Corruption on the Sean Hannity radio and tv shows.
Tonight, Sean announced that the book will debut at #1 on the New York Times best-seller list for the week of August 16. (Vid at Hot Air.)
It happened without a single review [...]

Former Democrat Rep. William Jefferson has been convicted on 11 counts of corruption.
Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty.

NOLA reports:
Former Democratic Congressman William Jefferson was found guilty of 11 of 16 corruption charges today by a federal jury.
The jury of eight women and four men returned a guilty verdict following five [...]

Birds of a feather: Obama’s Culture of Corruption

“While this type of scare tactic may work In Chicago, it will not work to intimidate me or other Members of the United States Congress.”

Just finished up on The View, where I sparred with the ladies about Culture of Corruption.
You can watch a bit of it at RCP and I’m sure Hot Air will have highlights up soon.
Update: Here’s the vid at Hot Air.
Best part: Every single member of the audience got a copy of the book!
Second best part: [...]

…they attack the messenger.
This is all they’ve got (vid at link if you can stomach it):

That’s it. Not a single refutation of a single fact in the book. Bill Maher can’t bring himself to open it and read what’s in between the covers. Why? Because he and all of his enablers in Hollywood, D.C., [...]

Dodd and Obama: Corrupt birds of a feather

Everything you need to know about false Hope and Change can be found in one picture: The image of President Obama embracing embattled Sen. Chris Dodd.
The embattled Democrat is in deep doo-doo over his Countrywide sweetheart home loan deals, corporate bailout cash, [...]

Instapundit Glenn Reynolds interviewed me on his Pajamas TV show about Culture of Corruption.
Watch here.
We opened with a fun-filled discussion of the liberal racist reaction to the book launch.
In case you missed the background on the joke, read here.
There’s plenty more where that came from — including this most desperate cry for attention from the [...]

Naming names.

Regular readers are familiar with Democrat deadbeat Rep. Laura Richardson. (See here for all previous posts.) She’s the Democrat congresswoman who defaulted six times on her home loans and has left a trail of unpaid bills in her wake.
Well, finally, finally, her Sacramento foreclosure scandal is now the subject of a House ethics probe. Via [...]

I’ve been reading about the federal corruption stings in New Jersey with an extra sense of fascination.
Many of you know I’m a New Jersey girl. So the kind of local graft and pay-for-play schemes involved in the latest probe are nothing new.
My question is — and gee, maybe someone in Washington [...]

Just finished up on the Today Show, where I had a quick chance to briefly expose the Culture of Corruption in the age of Obama. My syndicated column today adds to the dossier with a round-up of fresh Bully Boy moments.
It’s the Chicago way.

Just finished Glenn Beck TV this evening and am still doing tons of radio interviews for Culture of Corruption .
On a quick break here and wanted to post a quote by SEIU president and Friend of Obama Andy Stern for you to contemplate as the White House bully boys try to salvage Dear Leader’s legislative [...]

It’s Day 2 of the Culture of Corruption tour. I’ll be tied up most of the day with radio and TV interviews. I’m scheduled to appear on Glenn Beck’s radio and TV show today, so tune in for those if you can.
The book is currently #2 overall at Amazon.com behind The Time Traveler’s Wife, a [...]

HORE.

Just wanted to share a quick back story about the cover of Culture of Corruption:

If the distinctive artwork seems familiar, it’s because the graphic artist behind the shattered O logo is our friend, Tennyson Hayes. Tennyson and I collaborated on the image, which sums up the book — and the last six months of the [...]

Glamour shots vs. Grove Parc slums.

The rotten American Conservative Union/David Keene pay-for-play scandal underscores a point I’ve made over and over and over again:
The GOP can’t attack the Democrat culture of corruption (my new book comes out July 27) until it cleans its own house first.
The John Ensign mess keeps getting worse.
Stubborn, selfish, prevaricating Mark Sanford keeps embarrassing himself and [...]

I called him a wretched dog last month, and he continues to live up (er, down) to the label.
We now know that Nevada Republican Sen. John Ensign enlisted his parents to pay off his mistress/former campaign staffer and her husband/former intimate family friend/Senate employee to the tune of $96,000. Yeah, he bollixed up his own [...]

Watchdogs are an endangered species in the Age of Obama. The latest government ombudsman to get the muzzle: Amtrak inspector general Fred Weiderhold. The longtime veteran employee was abruptly “retired” last month –just as the government-subsidized rail service faces mounting complaints about its meddling in [...]

Ugh. What a wretched dog. GOP Sen. John Ensign of Nevada cheated on his beautiful wife — the mother of his three children — with a campaign aide who was married to one of his Senate staffers. He rode his high horse as a guardian of marriage and Promise Keepers. And then he only admitted [...]
