8 out of 10 also donated to Kerry, the max of $2000. The rest they are pouring into 527's, for some odd reason...

Yeah, those 527 have NOTHING to do with helping Kerry.

That's right, and the Kerry campaign hasn't denounced their attack ads.

Thanks so much for posting this, and for the ping! I was going to break down and do a vanity asking for the wonderful FReepers to do an analysis of this very topic, and here you had already done it!

Bravo!

What's the name of the 527 Hellary's side kick Ickies set up ???

I dunno for sure...Americans for something or other, or some other ridiculously false title.

I do know that Ickes is bragging that he has brought in more than 51 million, and I do know that kerry will not see much, if any of it.

This baby is being set up for hellary.

And I am sure he hopes to pray on the emotions of radical democrats for a few years to come and build this baby up into the stratosphere of millions upon hundreds of millions before that fat arsed, arrogant, stupid (health care plan comes to mind), immoral, imperious, willing to hit people in her moving vehicle and MOVEON (.org-lol) without so much as getting out to apologize and care for said individual, willing to live with a rapist and support him in order to keep her own viable political ambitions alive and well (hmmm.....) decides to attempt to infiltrate and once again stench up our White House.

Oh how cute. MoveOn.org is having a yard sale!

Dear MoveOn member,

In April, more than half a million MoveOn members across the country took to the streets -- or at least to their driveways -- to hold fundraising bake sales as part of MoveOn PAC's "Bake Back the White House". It was a tremendous success: together we raised close to $750,000 in small, cookie-sized chunks.

Today, we're continuing that tradition with the Great MoveOn PAC Virtual Yard Sale. For the next 2 weeks, we're asking MoveOn members from coast to coast to clean out their basements and garages, and put their extra stuff up for sale to help take our country back. Using our eBay-based online catalog, you can sell everything from beanie babies to toaster ovens to old movie posters to benefit an exciting new program.

To join the Virtual Yard Sale, all you need to do is post your item on eBay and "link" it to our catalog. Then, when the eBay auction is over, you can contribute the proceeds to us. It's that simple, and we'll walk you through the whole process.

Put your items up for sale in the Virtual Yard Sale at:

http://www.moveonpac.org/yardsale/index.html

Proceeds from the Virtual Yard Sale will get us closer to our $5 million goal for Leave No Voter Behind, MoveOn PAC's massive precinct-by-precinct program to get out the vote. This program will hire 500 organizers, cover 100,000 precincts, and turn out 400,000 new progressive votes in crucial swing states. You can help make this groundbreaking program possible -- by auctioning off your old stuff!

To get things started, we've also created our own Celebrity Yard Sale -- including DVDs autographed by Leonardo DiCaprio, the Shawshank Redemption book and screenplay signed by Tim Robbins, handmade jewelry by Margaret Cho, clothing autographed and decorated by Janeane Garofalo, and many other terrific items from the likes of Al Franken, Scarlett Johansson, Al Gore, Roseanne Cash, the Black Eyed Peas, Greg Palast, John Sayles, Alex Gray, R.E.M., Norman Mailer, Steve Buscemi, and Eve Ensler. You can find a link to the Celebrity Yard Sale, as well as links to items that members have listed at:

http://www.moveonpac.org/yardsale/index.html

It's not every day that your spare toaster oven and grandma's old furniture can help strengthen our democracy.

--Eli Pariser, Executive Director MoveOn PAC Friday, August 20th, 2004

Hmmmm, anyone want to start listing the connections to the democrats of The Media Group Fund, Moveon.org, America Coming Together?
Uh ok --

The Media Fund: run by Harold Ickes and former Kerry manager Jim Jordan, are working hard for Kerry—but they’re not allowed to say so. New York Metro.com

ACT (America Coming Together): ACT founders include Ellen Malcolm 1 and Steve Rosenthal 2, veterans in the fight against right-wing extremism. (Bwaaaahaha) Another ACT founder is Minyon Moore. 3 Read more on the ACT Founders HERE
1- Ellen R. Malcolm, President of ACT, is the founder and president of EMILY’s List
2- Steve Rosenthal , Chief Executive Officer of ACT, was Political Director of the AFL-CIO from 1996-2002...During the first three years of the Clinton Administration, Rosenthal served as Associate Deputy Secretary of the U.S. Department of Labor.
3- Minyon Moore heads Dewey Square’s state and local practice. She was formerly Chief Operations Officer of the Democratic National Committee.


Moveon.org; MoveOn was started by Joan Blades1 and Wes Boyd2. The MoveOn Peace campaign was founded independently by Eli Pariser1

1- Prior to her work in consumer software, Ms. Blades taught mediation at Golden Gate Law School, wrote a book on Divorce Mediation published by Prentice Hall, and practiced mediation.
2- Wes Boyd is MARRIED to Joan Blades (Visual WARNING). They are "best known for Flying Toaster screen savers, and You Don't Know Jack, an online game show (WOW!!). Mr. Boyd served at the University of California (Berkeley) as a senior staff programmer on research projects.

3- Who is Eli Pariser and why does he keep spamming Americans with commie pinko (blank) propaganda about protesting Iraq, Arnold's groping, defeating Republicans, world peace, racism, and every other conceivable piece of Politically Correct liberal claptrap imaginable? As MotherHo magazine put it:

"The son of two 1960s activists who founded an alternative high school in Camden, Maine, Pariser graduated from college at 19. His stint as an in-your-face radical ended early, too, after kibitzing for a few hours with D.C. cops at an anti-IMF rally in April 2000."


I could go on as there's still that Commie Front Group -- A.N.S.W.E.R, but you get the idea of how 'independent' these maggots are. And then they have the audacity to complain that a guy in Texas gave $100K to the Swiftboat Vets!!
