Tom Scheck at Polinaut has more:
Republican Tom Emmer's campaign for governor announced today that it has notified the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board that Emmer's legislative campaign made a 2008 donation that exceeded the legal limit. Emmer's Minnesota House campaign reported giving $250 to a group called You Can Run International. The group's front man, Bradlee Dean, has been criticized for making controversial statements about gays.
Right, like calling the execution of gays "moral".
Emmer's campaign spokesman told the Minnesota Independent that Emmer never gave any money to the group. The spokesman, Chris Van Guilder, later confirmed to MPR News that Emmer gave $250 to You Can Run International. That's $150 more than the legal limit..
The mainstream media needs to ask why so many MN GOP leaders openly support a violent extremist like Bradlee Dean.
UPDATE: Drew Emmer, Tom Emmer's uncle blogged his support for YCRBYCH in 2008.
