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.

Bump FYI

I heard Savage talking about this....

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...).

"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!!

Here is the best---the FrontPage Magazine article--http://frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=12187

This article isn't helping the cause, gang. It's almost entirely bogus. http://www.factcheck.org/article.aspx?docID=224

The rebuttal of your posted article is put out by FactCheck...

For the sake of argument, let's check into background of the folks at FactCheck...to make sure they are free from bias.

Here's some background on one of the folks,Seth Goldman Researcher, Annenberg Political Fact Check

Seth Goldman earned his B.A. in political communication at George Washington University. He joined the Annenberg Public Policy Center in June, 2004 with previous experience as journalist, press relations assistant, and media researcher. He has worked at the Committee for a Democratic Majority and at Sen. Edward M. Kennedy's campaign committee. At GWU he founded and edited Sticks & Stones,   an independent, student-run progressive newsmagazine.

Here is a sample of Seth Goldman's writing -- showing his attachment to politically correct expression. (Of course, we are aware that "politically correct" debate is debate that is guaranteed to favor the liberal who is involved.)
