GOP fundraiser charged in Ohio coin scandal-CNN
TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) -- Prosecutors charged a prominent GOP fundraiser Monday with theft and money laundering in an investigation of a controversial state investment in rare coins that has embroiled Republicans in scandal during an election year.

The 53 charges against coin dealer Tom Noe conclude a 10-month investigation by state and federal prosecutors into the $50 million rare coin investment Noe managed for the state insurance fund for injured workers.

Noe's attorney has acknowledged a shortfall of up to $13 million of the money Noe invested for the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation. The state attorney general has accused Noe of stealing up to $6 million.

1. The GOP, the party of thieves
Dems aren't all angels, but once they catch one of us it seems to end. These thieving repugs, it seem that there isn't any end to their criminal activities.

2. It's an orange jumpsuit for Tom Noe! Let's hope his pals Taft and
Rep. Boehner and Blackwell get matching suits with cuffs!
