And they’ll have plenty of money to do so. The HRCC gets some more big bucks.

Yesterday, at the Missouri Ethics Commission:

C091068 04/30/2012 HOUSE REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE INC Fredrick Palmer 57 Fair Oaks Dr Ladue MO 63124 Executive Peabody Energy 4/30/2012 $10,000.00

[emphasis added]

Do they know where their money goes? Sometimes for robocalls.

In 2010:

HRCC robocall in the 121st Legislative District: desperation and homophobia (October 27, 2010)

….

Female voice: This is an urgent alert for all Christian families. Before you vote you should know that state representative candidate Courtney Cole has taken hundreds in campaign donations from a representative of the hard core pornography industry, including gay pornography. By allowing her Democratic campaign to be funded by those who are involved with and support hard core pornography Courtney Cole clearly does not share our Christian family values. On election day stand up for what’s right and decent by voting no on Courtney Cole. Paid for by House Republican Campaign Committee, Inc.

….

Why, $10,000.00 would pay for a lot of robocalls. And that gets you this: Can the General Assembly possibly get more ridiculous? (April 30, 2012)
