[StBernard] False attack and lies about Ray Garofalo by State Democratic Party

[Westley Annis]

Just a quick clarification:  The Louisiana State Democratic Committee just
put on a hit piece on Ray Garofalo claiming he makes $125,000 a year
"supposedly" from having ownership interests in video poker truck stops.
WRONG and a LIE.  Garofalo has NO interests at all in any truck stops.none,
notta - never has, never will!

 

Also, they conveniently left out Garofalo has not received, nor been
approached, by any organizations representing gaming interests to give him a
contribution.  Garofalo has publicly stated on more than one occasion that
he would refuse such contributions.

 

The $125,000 the State Democratic Party mentions from Garofalo's disclosure
report is from his helping a few local restaurant owners in St. Bernard
parish obtain "their" video poker licenses - and the $125,000 figure is a
"gross" income figure, not net.  After overhead and costs, that figure is
considerably lower.  That is why Garofalo has made clear that his primary
business interests are in the development (and renovation) of commercial and
retail property - that's where the money is being made today.  Strange, how
the State Democratic Party conveniently left that part out.  But what do you
expect of the party that works to keep Barack Obama in office?

 

This just goes to show how desperate and low the liberal Democratic Party
will stoop to win.  On election day, let the State Democratic Party know
that we're not going to let them try to turn Louisiana into another
Wisconsin.
