The fly-by-night group has tried to represent itself as something more official by presenting a list of respected Democrats as its "advisory board," complete with fabricated quotes, when they hadn't even heard of the organization, theWashington Examiner found.
21st Century says it was founded by Sen.Tom Harkin of Iowa in 1985 and was previously known as the official-sounding "Democrats 2000."
Its web site names no staff and instead lists an "advisory board" including former Sen. Carol Moseley Braun of Illinois, former Labor secretary Robert B. Reich, and David Wilhelm and Don Fowler, former Democratic National Committee chairmen.
In reality there is nothing official or party-sanctioned about the group.
"You're going to have to tell me what that is, because I've never heard of that name," Fowler said. "I have no sense of giving them the approval to use my name, and I suspect none of the other people who they purport to be their advisory board will, either."
Rebecca Boles, a spokesperson for former Clinton Labor Secretary Robert Reich, said: "He has never even heard of that group. They never consulted with him about using his name. He thinks it's pretty outrageous." The political group's web site quotes Reich as saying
"The work of 21st Century Democrats has never been more important."

Well, cant say they're not good for anything.
The money was squandered the second it was donated to the Demonic Party.
Reich says they’re short on funds.
Did Eric Holder have a hand in this fraud (it would not be surprising...) ????
Curious minds just want to know...
By definition if it proclaims the person, firm or entity as Democrat, Progressive, 21st Century anywhere by word or deed any statement attributable to the person or group bearing the title is a foul and corrupt lie. Democrats live and love the lie, a lie is their nature, their essence, their very being. They cannot help it, all truth has flown from such people.
Shhhh. Please let them continue.
“squanders Democratic donors’ cash”
After the Dhimms have squandered the taxpayers’ cash.
Karma Payback. Gotta love it.
EVERYONE HERE should start raising money for Democrats!!
Vigorously, loudly, and proudly...
Then give it to Republicans! - who says you can’t?
Dry up their money supply
If you get questioned just say that you were trying to convince them to follow liberal ideas...
They originally called themselves “21st Century Republicans”, but they couldn’t get IRS approval.
“EVERYONE HERE should start raising money for Democrats!!
Vigorously, loudly, and proudly...
Then give it to Republicans! - who says you can’t?”
I think you would get dinged for that.
But...You could start a PAC/Fund called something like...’Citizens for Progressive Government’ and use the money collected for most anything.
Progress is a subjective term and means whatever you say it does.
