Oklahoma Legislators Attended
Gene Phillips' Fundraiser

For Republican Mike Huckabee Part 2

First a Big Think You and Hat Tip to Mike @ The McCarville Report Online for Breaking this story. For the start of this story click here

On December 18, 2007, A fundraiser was held at the 13-acre Dallas estate of Gene and Roxanne Phillips.

(Phillips figured in the controversial end of Democrat Insurance Commissioner Carroll Fisher's term in office. Fisher left office after questions were raised about his acceptance of office furnishings from Phillips and his associates. Phillips was interviewed twice by investigators from the attorney general's office, the grand jury's legal adviser, and Phillips' business associates were subpoenaed to testify before a grand jury. One associate appeared before the grand jury twice. Stephen Jones, Phillips' Enid attorney, was successful in fighting efforts to force Phillips to appear.)
From The McCarville Report Online:

Those in attendance included Irving Mayor Herbert Gears and several members of the Oklahoma Legislature
After making many phone calls tonight, Okie Campaigns, has learned that Stephen Jones and 2007 GOP Insurance Commissioner Candidate Bill Case, arranged for the Oklahoma GOP House members to go the Dec. 18, Huckabee event at the Phillips 13-acre Dallas estate.

We also have a pictures of the Dec 18, event. One can clearly see Speaker Pro Tempore Gus Blackwell, Assistant Majority Floor Leader Mike Jackson, and Assistant Majority Whip T. W. Shannon in it.
