There are quite a few other articles as well about VanderSloot which appear to cite facts using publicly available information. I don't think VanderSloot is a naive businessman who made a big donation to conservative causes and then got slammed for doing so.
If the claims in this article are true, he's a wealthy supporter of Mitt Romney who succeeded in business using some pretty aggressive tactics which he then applied to his critics in politics, and is now getting the same kind of scrutiny applied to him by liberals that we as conservatives would give to a wealthy supporter of Barack Obama.
That's America.
For whatever it's worth, while I don't like his support of Mitt Romney one bit, it certainly looks like he's done a lot of good for the opponents of gay marriage. I have no agenda against VanderSloot — I just wish he'd stick to fighting gay marriage and wasn't a Romney supporter.
The truth will come out sooner or later. If all VanderSloot did was make threats against “little guys” who were mad about his big donations, he's now playing in the big leagues and has found out that both sides fight hard. Money can buy lots of things, but it can't buy freedom from critics — and shouldn't.
You three need to buy a clue as to the nature of the enemy.
The Left's collective heads were EXPLODING for years about Nixon's "enemies list". They still fulminate about it to this day as an example of Teh Evul Repukes.
Obama has an enemies list. VanderSloot is going to get audited by the IRS, just like all of Bill Clinton's enemies did, and the media won't call the Chicago Punk on it.
Remember - if Bush had had his enemies audited by the IRS, there would have been millions of words and thousands of articles published about it. But it's okay if the Democommies do it...
