You could say that Fallon has been a little sloppy with things surrounding I'm for Iowa and earning some money from his campaign funds, but he did not break any laws. If you think there is a problem with this behavior then work to change the laws. What laws did Fallon break?

BTW he probably did break some laws with his I'm for Iowa list serve. I have an idea for ed, GET A JOB like everyone else and stop living off the donations of people who think they are donating to a good cause but really they are donating to the pay Ed Fallon's sallary Thats exactly what the legislature is going to do with the “Ed fallon loophole bill” tomorrow.

How else can someone like Ed Fallon be able to make a living while running for office? While fatcat congressmen like Leonard Boswell enjoy steady employment and regular paychecks, a true progressive like Ed Fallon doesn't have that luxury. This law would make it tougher for those only work for the little man. It is the epitome of the status quo. Shame on you Geraldine for defending this outrage.

Working for the little man??? He is asking the little man to give him money because unlike them he was to lazy to ever actually get a job. Congressman Boswell was a farmer and a pilot before he became an elected official he actually had a job unlike fallon who has never had a real job in his life. Even when his kids were growing up he was too lazy to get a job, which i might add is something he says proudly when he talks to voters. Lets face reality here Ed fallon is a hypocrite who is just looking for a job. Are you kidding me ryan lewis. Working for the little man???
