Fred Thompson Adviser With Criminal Record Resigns
Fred Thompson's failure to look at Phil Martin's background before naming him his campaign fundraising co-chairman simply because he's a "longtime friend" raises serious doubts about Fred Thompson's judgment. And Martin's resignation now leaves many questions unanswered about what Fred Thompson knew and when he knew it. ….. ABC revealed today that not only was his close campaign adviser convicted of selling drugs and illegal gambling, but the IRS, Tennessee and more than 12 other states have filed liens for unpaid taxes against Martin and his former businesses as recently as 2002. These revelations question the credibility of Thompson's excuse that he knew nothing of Martin's recent legal troubles…… Thompson still refuses to say whether he will continue to use Martin's jet for campaign travel, a perk that's saved his campaign at least $120,000 so far, and has refused to return any money the convicted felon donated or raised for his campaign.
