The Arizona Democratic Party is accusing Republican U.S. Rep. John Shadegg of using his political-action committee to skirt laws that limit the amount of money donors can give a candidate.
Democrats say they have drafted a complaint to the Federal Election Commission, but Shadegg maintains nothing was done improperly and doubts whether the FEC will take action.
At issue is money that elections records show was transferred from Shadegg's
political-action committee into his election campaign.Two Valley businessmen who made the maximum allowable individual donations to Shadegg's campaign in 2007 also wrote additional $5,000 checks to Shadegg's PAC, Leadership for America's Future. Eleven days later, on June 26, the PAC wrote two identical $5,000 checks to Shadegg.
Normally, such a transfer would not be noticed among thousands of dollars in contributions. But in the same reporting period, Shadegg's PAC received no other contributions and paid out only the $10,000.

Tattooed pigs? Is this where tattoo artists learn their craft? On pigs?...
And people get these strangely decorated hams and think they're eating people?
Actually, the pig pics are from a Chinese "art farm", but it looks like their web site is now gone.
