Looking into something I discovered that Perdue PAC hasn’t filed since July 2007.
Since his last report listed about $770k in the bank, isn’t he required to do so?
<b>Updated to add</b>: This rundown of Glenn’s MMV PAC answers some questions too. Looks like Sonny can do whatever he wants with that money with no disclosure.

I wonder if Sonny will figure out a way to use his PAC money to pay down his $20 million note with the AgBank in Perry?
He will just ask Brian Kemp for the Money
Dumbass. If you’re going to be snarky Kemp-hating douche, at least post something that makes sense.
i think maybe the implication was kemp owed him favor now, or was buying his seat a la the guv of illinois and his attempt to sell obama’s senate seat…you may not like what he wrote but it is hardly nonsensical…
It’s the absurdity of Bill’s statement that makes it nonsensical.
Thank you Dr.Jay
Maybe some of y’all should read the law and rules regarding how PACs operate before posting here on peachpundit. While I appreciate the open discourse and opinions expressed here, the ignorance of what some posters write is unbelievable and reflects just their hatred of particular politicians not an honest discussion.
PerduePAC has filed the required disclosure reports every due date with the IRS. PACs are exempt from state reporting requirements until they make aggregate contributions of $25,000 or more directly to candidates or candidates committee’s in one calendar year or make expenditures to or on behalf of candidates of $25,000 or more in one calendar year.
Also on a side note, Bobby Kahn filed an ethics claim on this that was later dismissed.
I would wager that more people would read the laws if there weren’t quite the number of laws that there are. We have way too many laws and regulations on the books. (Let’s start with Sunday sales and go from there…)
Yes, you are right, there are way too many laws!
Down with laws! should be the theme of the 2010 session.
As opposed to previous year’s theme: “Down with bras (and panties)!”
At least they were “Up with blouses.”
People don’t read laws because it is boring to read them.
Facts are discouraged on Peachpundit
it seems he asked a question, and now assuming your information is correct, he got an answer, and we all got to learn a little something…
Moxley…I know Sonny is limited by law to what he can do with the PAC money. My comments are related to how he will attempt to manipulate the law to personnally benefit from the PAC proceeds. That much money to a greedy fellow like Sonny who is in financial trouble may prove to be irresistible to him. We won’t know until later how he does it, but I would wager his brain is working on it full-time.
Or if they receive $25,000 in contributions. Are you ssuggesting that this PAC hasn’t received $25,000.00 in donations since 2007? That would be unbelievable.
Actually Debra, if you look at the 2007 filing, there were two contributions. One for 787k and one for about 1.8k both from Sonny’s campaign organization.
Perdue PAC is sitting on almost $800k and hasn’t done diddly with it.
It could almost serve as a metaphor for his administration!
Bobby Kahn filed an ethics complaint on Richardson the Impaler, too.
Dismissed by Johnson et al.
Posted this in the wrong place.
“Bobby Kahn filed an ethics complaint on Richardson the Impaler, too.”
Which was missed by Johnson et al.
Chris…My reading of what Sonny can do with his $800K PAC would allow him to donate all the money to the GA GOP for the General Election support of the Republican Party’s candidates. Will he do this? I seriously doubt it. He is personnally broke and needs to live off the PAC money until it runs out. I predict he will connive with his tax attorney (Larry “Loophole” O’Neal) and come up with a scheme that legally permits him to launder his PAC money through a foundation that he creates and runs. For example, he could start a foundation called GO Fish Georgia, appoint himself Executive Director at a salary of $200K per year with all expenses paid, including new bass boat and truck, and claim to travel around promoting bass fishing. He could then use the salary to pay off his personal debts. We will know in a couple of years when he has to report.
Fish,
You the man. Now how did you learn how to be as good a tax attorney as Loophole Larry?
Nevermind, just please will you do my taxes?
Mad Dog…you don’t need to file if you make less than $7,500 per year.
