Regarding the "Ruckus Society" (Communist Anarchists) funded with Heinz grants:

Teresa Heinz Kerry has financed the secretive Tides Foundation to the tune of more than $4 million over the years. The Tides Foundation, a “charity” established in 1976 by antiwar leftist activist Drummond Pike, distributes millions of dollars in grants every year to political organizations advocating far-Left causes.

This is where much of the money for all the little planned parenthood chapters across the country gets laundered through.

It is also where International ANSWER (the commie pukes led by Clark Ramsey) gets their funding.

Oh, and I can back this up with publicly available tax documents.

BTW, guess where this San Francisco-based "foundation" is located...

That's right, they took over The Presidio thanks to Bubba and the so-called peace dividend.

What makes the pairing with Tides troubling is that organization's secretive funneling of cash from private foundations -- such as Heinz, the Pew Charitable Trusts and many others -- to extreme left-wing activist groups whose interests include exclusion of humans from both public and private lands, anti-war protests, opposition to free trade, banning of firearms, abolition of the death penalty, unlimited abortion rights, gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender advocacy, as well as and environmental extremism.

The funny thing is Republicans could set up organizations to run ads critical of Teresa Heinz Kerry's "philanthopic" interests and it would not be an "attack" on John Kerry. Since First Lady is not an official government position ads attacking her activities would not count as prohibited ads under McCain-Feingold, but it would cause people to question John Kerry's positions.

Please delete one of my responses at your convenience.

Thanks!

Bump FYI

I heard Savage talking about this....

[onyx]

Good, GEC, glad to know you have the goods on this.

[Dales]

Sickening.

But there is no difference between the parties, and it doesn't matter if Bush wins. I know, because so many third party types have told me.

Ironically, that's the same thing the anarchists say. Drop out, stay home, don't feed the machine.

We've come such a long way in such a short time haven't we.
Have you noticed all of the Tides articles?
I sure have and it's a good thing.

If these pukes are funding organizations which methodically commit crimes, the victims of the crimes (businesses in Seattle?) can and should sue them. It sounds like they have really deep pockets...

Additionally, they're flirting with being designated a "Terrorist Organization" (THAT ought to send the Left into absolute paroxysms of howling indignation... in fact the designation would be worth it just to see them go berserk).

A lawsuit could demand disclosure of the foundation's records... subpoena a coven of leftist droids... I can hear Liberals yelling "BUSH ASHCROFT MCCARTHY WITCHHUNT FISHING EXPEDITION!!!" right now. (Music to my ears...).

Is the a possibility of mentioning.. gasp.. a vast LEFTWING conspiracy?!?!

[CyberAnt]

"Tides and its dozens of its related organizations are about: money, a flagrant disregard for the truth, and even disdain for the law"

Yes .. this is more of what we need in the WH .. "a flagrant disregard for the truth, and even disdain for the law". I think I'm going to throw up!!

[Badray]

The wrong Heinz went down in that helicopter crashed.

[Lurker]

Bump for later.

[no dems]

We need to keep stuff like this quiet until John Fonda Kerry gets the nomination, then hit him full-force.

[Clock King]

You might be right. What we don't need is the Breck Guy getting the nomination and sucking in the dumb-downed masses with his "innocence" and "freshness" and "new ideas".

-John Kerry- some selected, informative links...--

[GEC]

Not to speak ill of the dead, but I spoke ill of the Senator while he was alive.

I know some of his former DC staff. I think he was an SOB to be honest.

He was for sure a RINO, although those standards have certainly changed over the years.

In the end, literally, I will never understand why anyone would permit any pilots to perform close aerial maneuvers over a populated area. They should have done the gear check over an airport or a field someplace. He died because of it, but he also killed children in a school playground. Icarus couldn't have been filled with more hubris.

And yet, he gets the Paul Wellstone treatment.

Like I said, I'll never understand it.

BUMP!
