When was the last time the AP got all knicker-twisted about Soros? Hint: The 12th of Never.

[Former Military Chick]

Interesting background on the donor.

[Former Military Chick]

I admit I am a bit tired so forgive the question, is this article incorrect?

[HarryCaul]

This was beyond predictable, but it wont matter.

In fact, it just makes more people seek out the ad.

There's a lot of people in the democratic party unfamiliar with the term "tar baby".

[ChiMark]

Yeah, this is now the weak defense the media is staging. Oh, let's not talk about Soros and his $15M for 527 orginizations.

[Former Military Chick]

Frankly I would think it is better to have all the info out there, so they dems cant say we are HIDING anything.

[Jeff Chandler]

Damned wealthy Texan Republicans interfering with the rat media agenda.

This just in: New Necked Abu Grabe Photos!!!!!!!!!

Perry's June donation accounted for most of the $158,750 that Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, founded in April, reported raising as of June 30. John Krugh, a spokesman for Perry Homes, declined to comment on Perry's contribution.

$158k? Teresa farted that out after her Frosty at Wendy's. Soros eats $158k for breakfast. It is up to us to start confronting the media. Any ideas?

[GeronL]

and these people claim objectivity. sheesh.

[BigSkyFreeper]

The effort is reminiscent of a 2000 effort that helped drive George W. Bush's then-rival John McCain from the presidential race.

No it's not. Bush didn't call into question McCain's patriotism. McCain lost because he's too damn liberal.

[CalRepublican]

If I lived in Texas I'd buy a Perry home. Thank goodness someone is helping these guys be heard.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Those pesky evil rich Republicans! /sarcasm

[Cold Heat]

I guess my 25 bucks don't rate a story.

I must donate more!

[BigSkyFreeper]

I'll tell you what the left is going to do. They're going to say his donation violates CFR, and call for Congressional hearings over it. McCain and Feingold will preside.

[kattracks]

Since the lamestream media can't refute what the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth have to say, this is the best they can do.

[Carling]

Good point Big Sky. And the media will make sure this BS is heard before Sandy Berger's theft.

BTW - I grew up in Billings, went to MSU in Bozeman, and my Mom lives in Missoula.

I miss Montana, but Portland is where the $$$ is.

[BigSkyFreeper]

They're going to drag this story and the Abu Ghraib story out from here to November, because Kerry has nothing else to run on and no leg to stand on.

Understand your reasons for moving out of state to find work. The tax structure in this state is so punitive it has forced a lot of companies to move out as well over the last few years.

[Carling]

Montana's top export?

It's college graduates.

And that is no joke. I know too many UM or MSU grads out here in Oregon doing well to think otherwise.

[concerned about politics]

A wealthy Texan and prolific Republican donor is helping bankroll a television ad assailing Democrat John Kerry's decorated military record in the Vietnam War.

Soro's, Moore, and Move On are financing ads against Bush. So what the point?
Someone has to help these guys get the truth out. T'ressa won't pay for it!
Thank God there's someone out there who cares!
Heck, this same man also donated to Democrat politicians. Why did they leave that part out? Huh? Huh?
