And He Steals Girl Scout Cookies

No, not Donald Trump, it's North Carolina Lieutenant Governor, and Republican candidate for Governor Mark Robinson, who was sued by the Girl Scouts over almost $3,000 in cookies that he or his wife never paid for.

Where the f%$# do they find these folks?

Because it is an even a, "More wretched hive of scum and villainy," than Mos Eisley Spaceport.

According to public records obtained from Guilford County Court, the wife of Republican gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson was sued by Tarheel Triad Girl Scouts over “money owed” in Guilford County Small Claims Court in 2003–and the Girl Scouts won.

In September of 2003 the Girl Scouts filed suit against Yolanda Hill due to a $2,956.03 bad check.

After auditing just a few months of Balanced Nutrition’s nearly ten-year activity, DHHS found that the nonprofit, which served as a conduit for getting federal funding for child care facilities’ meals, was requesting federal funding on behalf of childcare centers and then not actually giving them the money.

 As Anna Russel would say, "I'm not making this up, you know."
