Why can't you just trust that he got it from legitimate sources? (4.00 / 5)

Why do you assume that it involves some

illegal funneling of money?

A Byzantine tale.

And when you're done, maybe you could explain it to me? The practice has been going on, but now we want to call attention to it ... Karzai is mad at the US ... I'm missing something.

Ah, diplomatic backchannels.

A Template For Guinta? (0.00 / 0)

So, can Guinta follow Karzai's lead on this.

Guinta is already indignant about people asking questions about his personal/public financial affairs.

JG: Did your parents gift you a great deal of money? [pause] I didn't hear an answer.

GUINTA: I've already addressed the matter that you're trying to talk about.

JG: And you're not answering the question yes or no. [pause]

Read it. Listen to all of it, and

If you're too lazy to do any of that, then just listen to this excerpt. And pass it on to friends who don't know yet why they shouldn't want him to represent them in Washington.

The police interviews (0.00 / 0)

I keep coming back to the police interviews in the aftermath of the fight at the Fish. So tawdry, walking either around or over someone lying on the floor, leaving before the ambulance arrived.
