Curt Weldon Never Gave His Daughter Anything

Noted goofy congressman Curt "Gogolyguk" Weldon had had his daughter's home raided by the FBI this morning, as well as the home of a family friend and four other sites in Philly and Jacksonville.

The congressman is being investigated for possibly improperly helping his daughter's consulting firm win lobbying contracts. (Uh, this is illegal?) Weldon named his outers to -- who else? -- black people don't care about Darfur columnist Steven Morse of the Daily Pennsylvanian. He says that it's Melanie Sloan, executive director of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, as well as former NSA head Sandy Berger.

Of course, this is the same man who said that Osama Bin Laden had secretly died in Iran, so take this with a grain of salt.

Weldon, for his part, says it's a politically-motivated attack, and that his daughter is fine on his own:

"I've never helped my daughter get anything. My kids are qualified on their own," Weldon said.

Curt Weldon never helped his daughter get anything? That asshole.
