The Obama campaign has requested that they be allowed to pay off the debts of malfeasance from their former opponents. <\/p>\n<p>Well, Biden doesn&#8217;t really owe the money until the FCC actually files the paperwork with the Treasury Department and the months-old finding by the FEC hasn&#8217;t been filed yet. Of course, we all know that the government does that for all of us, right? They&#8217;ll hold up paperwork so we have time to find a source for money we owe them. <\/p>\n<p>Like the time the IRS gave me a whole ten days to respond to their &#8220;finding&#8221; that I owed them $7000 for unreported income. They were wrong (I&#8217;d taken the money out of savings) but digging out paperwork from 5 years back takes some time &#8211; time us regular folks don&#8217;t get but Joe Bite-Me gets an undetermined amount of time to beg money from his buddies.<\/p>\n<p>If the FEC doesn&#8217;t allow the Obama campaign to pay Bite-me&#8217;s bills, he&#8217;ll have to fund raise again&#8230;so we all know what the FEC will decide, right? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Washington Times reports that Joe Biden&#8217;s failed run for president in 2008 has left his &hellip; <a title=\"It&#8217;s nice to be the king\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=21109\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">It&#8217;s nice to be the king<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21109","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-barack-obama"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=21109"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21109\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=21109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=21109"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=21109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
