It's not the money spent, but the message that makes conservative 527s effective. Shine the light of truth and the cockroaches scatter and hide. Our 527s are taking on the responsibilities of todays journalist who have sold their souls.

Fox outdraws with a cable channel that most people don't get unless they have a premimun package.... FOX is a reason some folks upgrade their cable packages. This is all the more reason Fox has something lacking the liberal media.... Of course, when the entire media is saturated with liberal bias, it is easy for conservatives to view the few channels who sway to the middle~!~:)

"Jane Fonda had the decency to apologize about 17 years ago for what she said about the Vietnam Vets."

All her half-hearted apologies are meaningless to me. Always will be. And of all the adjectives I could apply to her, "decent" would not be on the list. That is all.

There is a slight difference between a developer and a construction worker.

George Soros can contribute mega millions to moveon.org etc and a [Houston developer] (believe this is what he did) from texas gives swift vets [$200,000] to run a few commericfals and democrats go nuts.

The difference is that the democratic party has no message, and so it all comes across as noise and maniacal ravings. I cannot believe that Soros fell for this. He is a smart man, and did not earn his billions not having a strategy. Well what is his strategy now? To throw millions on a party and candidate that have no strategy other than elect me because Bush is a liar and besides he went after terrorists and there was a better way which I will tell you about after the election, and besides I was in Viet Nam? In order to send a message you have to have a message to send and the dems have none.

On Nightline, in August, Ben Ginsberg directly accused Chris Bury of applying a double standard to the 527 debate. See:

"If the media can scrutinize my legal work, which doesn't even fall under the anti-coordination rules, why can't they scrutinize these Democrats with equal diligence?"

Because the main-stream media is in bed with the liberals. They are a 'de-facto' 527, and they are collaborating with the Kerry camp. How many times have the daily DNC talking points found their way into the media, seemingly unscathed?

Thanks for the great link. I can't bring myself to watch Nightline any more. I'll be emailing Ginsberg's comments to people who refuse to see the difference between Democrat and Republican 527s.

At least she made some sort of effort. Even if it was only to salve her own conscience. Kerry has no conscience.
