Barletta Campaign Threatens PA Progressive Blog

March 8th, 2008, posted by Greg Palmer

I’m still waiting for the lawsuit Lou Barletta’s Congressional campaign threatened me with two weeks ago. Are process servers on strike? Did someone in Hazleton realize how stupid this was? I wrote this article after press reports that Lou Barletta, running in the 11th Congressional District against incumbent Democrat Paul Kanjorski, declared the loan listed on his FEC reports for six years was personal and not a campaign debt.

Of course, if it was a personal loan secured by his home that may raise other violations…

The article prompted an angry series of emails from the Barletta campaign. They took issue with this statement: “This was an illegal loan and he got caught with his hand in the cookie jar.” Their problem now is that they’ve crawled completely into the cookie jar.
