For a guy with so much money (Burns), interesting that the only federal candidate he ever contributed to was Santorum...and just once in 2006 for $1000. And there is no evidence of Burns ever giving any money to any state candidate. He's certainly hasn't been much of a player.

Tim Burns has also volunteered his time helping flood victims in Sharpsburg (Allegheny County), traveling to Mississippi to provide aid to the victims of Hurricane Katrina, volunteering at a local hospice and directing a youth camp for special needs children. Tim serves on the Board of Directors for the Childhood Apraxia of Speech Association of North America (CASANA).
ReplyDeleteThe fact is, Tim Burns has never financially helped any Republican candidate for state office. Not even with a $5.00 contribution. He didn't help Tom Ridge become Governor. He didn't help Mike Fisher or Lynn Swann in their efforts to defeat liberal Ed Rendell. And he hasn't supported local Republican candidates fighting Rendell's tax, borrow and spend policies in Harrisburg like Senators John Pippy and Jane Orie or State Representative Mike Turzi.
ReplyDeleteOn the federal level, he's never contributed to a candidate to defeat Jack Mutha, whom he called "an embarrassment." He never helped former Congresswoman Melissa Hart or former Congressman Phil English (both were defeated) or current Congressmen Tim Murphy or Bill Shuster.
He didn't help Senator John McCain in his campaign to defeat Barrack Obama. And he didn't support President George W. Bush with even a small donation against liberals Al Gore and John Kerry.
But now the state Party wants everyone to help Burns! But Tim Burns has never done anything to help any other Republican candidates except a one-time donation to Rick Santorum. Burns is not a team player!
Burns acknowledged in an interview that he had failed to vote in the 2000 and 2002 general elections and the 2004 primary.
