Rants' Archive: Branstad Was Keeping Two Sets of Books
Chris Rants posted another article from the "days before google" about Terry Branstad. It was in sreponse to his speech at the Republican Party of Iowa's fall Dinner. Here is his campaigns description of the article:
At the RPI fall dinner former Governor Branstad said that when he left office in 1999, the budget was balanced according to generally accepted accounting principals "the way (State Auditor) Dave Vaudt says it ought to be done." Apparently the former Governor has forgotten that for most of his tenure, he was in fact keeping two sets of books, and did not abide by GAAP as then Auditor Dick Johnson demanded.Here is the article he posted on his site (PDF).
