[Congressman Billybob]

Here's how such an in-your-face ad could be organized:

It is likely that Harold Ickes, former Chief of Staff to Bill Clinton, will be the Democrat nominee for the Senate from North Carolina. 30 days before the primary election here, an ad could be presented to just ONE TV station here, that says the following:

"Harold Ickes is a sleazy bum, just like his former boss, Bill Clinton. The following 1,000 people support this statement, and condemn a majority of Congress and a majority of the Supreme Court, who seek to supress our free speech."

As the 1,000 names of the sponsors are scrolling on the screen, superimposed appear the following words. "We believe in free speech. So, come and get us, and we'll see who wins."

Copies of the ad would be made available for FREE use by the major media, who would be all over this subject like a duck on a June bug.

This cannot be done for about six months, so a lot of back and forth and refinement is possible. But that's what I'm thinking about.

I love it. Count me in, too.

I thought Harold Ickes was from New York. And wasn't his father from Iowa?

I was only half-listening to him, but I think Sean Hannity just said no radio station would accept such an ad, because of the risk.

I'll be honored to be one of those 999. Just let me know when and where to sign and contribute.

Don't you mean Irksome Bowels, Ickes is from New York.
