If they don't like it, they can run ads in August.
It's not our fault he decided to take off the whole month after his little convention party.

Hmmm... first the threat against Swift Boat Veterans for the Truth, and now the Club for Growth. I sense a pattern here...

Will the democRATs attempt to conduct their campaign through the courts?

Fair enough. An ill conceived, half hearted and dismal media stunt resembling an FEC complaint.

For precedential purposes, both sides wanted that action brought, to set the ground rules under a vague new law: CFR [spit].

Saw it myself...well conceived and carried out. The 527 war has begun.

I always confuse the Club for Growth and the Hair Club for Men. No idea why.

Gum

Of course they are trying to silence these ads - 527s are for the dims exclusive use.

They ran ads for Dr. Tom Coburn here and I think they helped make a difference. DNC is okay if Soros funds ads for MoveOn, etc. What a bunch of hypocrites.
