Criminal History Of Libertarian Missouri Senate Candidate Jonathan Dine Exposed



An interesting note about the other candidate in the Missouri Senate race . . .

Fox4's Tess K. notes that U.S. Senate Candidate Jonathan Dine was found guilty of (felondy) marijuana possession in 2006 and admitted using meth & coke during the arrest. Just last year he got a DWI and is serving probation.

Sadly, none of this came up during the TKC Exclusive Interview with Mr. Dine probably because the recent discovery doesn't change his chances of winning the contest.

what the what?
a felondy conviction on a candidate's record makes him/her unqualified to run for office. The State senate passe dthat bill and it passed the test with the removal of Hershel Young out there in Cass County.
I'm looking at you, "rev" Tindall. Don't you go trying to go under the radar. Jean Baker must keep you off the ballot.

I would rather vote for someone who is buzzed, than someone who is ape-shit-crazy like Akin.

Hey Tony? A five second search on Google produced this Oct. 2010 story from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch:

"Mo. Libertarian candidate doesn't run from felony record".

Yep, the story is TWO YEARS OLD.

And it also mentions a stretch in Kansas for stealing and identity theft.

Too bad it "didn't come up" during your interview. Had you done some homework, you might have been able to bring it up yourself.

It's the difference between reporting and blogging.

Would now be the appropriate time to ask if Claire got that messy personal property tax matter settled? And if so, was the tax bill paid or forgiven? I know it was only some lowly figure like $216,000 but dodging the tax man is worse than smoking dope to some of us.

Blaming the subject of a story for the inabilities of the writer is an interesting tack Tony.

"Mr. Dine's campaign hasn't received much coverage in the mainstream media and that's a shame because this young, energetic and idealistic candidate offers a viable alternative from the divisive rhetoric that currently defines our politics in Missouri and across the nation."

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Another monster lurking behind the facade. I could have sized this guy in less than five minutes. Whats your problem Tony?

I think I have found my new favorite politician. Best tidbit yet–"Dine is slated to appear at the upcoming debate hosted by the Missouri Press Association—which looks to be the only debate confirmed between Akin and McCaskill." Bring popcorn!

Just another dude to dilute the democrat vote. Akin loves this guy. Claire, not so much.

Libertarian? Like that nut case Tracy Ward? She certainly has a burr up her ass for the Po-Po.

This asshole is like that other asshole, Tarwater, in Independence. I'd betcha he has a real nice temper to go with that "Curly Joe" haircut and driving record. Someday, some good-ole-boy will knock the dog fuck outta him, if it hasn't happened already.

(Felondy)? Wow...that must be twice as bad as a (Felony)...Humor!

So...in other words, all of the other Congress people will now stop drinking, messing around on their spouses, taking bribes, etc...because this fellow would be a Bad example if elected?

Right! I'm voting for him because I'm a Libertarian!
