Mark Sanford Mole Exposes Alleged Taxpayer-Funded Campaigning
This website has extensively chronicled U.S. Rep. Mark Sanford‘s political rebirth as a status quo “Republican.”
Sanford used to be the genuine article when it came to protecting taxpayers.
“During his first go-round in the House from 1995-2001, Sanford was a true limited government proponent and free market champion,” we wrote recently. “Not only that, he accompanied his many lonely, principled votes with action – refusing to take money from political action committees, returning millions of dollars to the U.S. Treasury from his office budgets, opposing pork barrel spending for his own district and repeatedly standing up to the fiscally liberal excesses of his party’s leaders.”
In other words, he was the sort of guy who would never permit government resources to flow into his political campaign.
Now? Sanford is a status quo hack … just another corrupt politician willing to waste tax dollars in furtherance of his electoral aspirations (sort of like he wasted tax dollars to further other “aspirations” during his tenure as governor of South Carolina).
In fact, Sanford appears to have has his taxpayer-funded staff hard at work on his June 14 GOP primary race.
According to images disseminated by someone claiming to be a mole in his Washington, D.C. office, government employees under Sanford’s authority are actively participating in his 2016 “Republican” primary campaign against S.C. Rep. Jenny Horne.
