Liberal Group Will Pay for Dirt on Conservative Groups
T. W. Farnam reports on politics.
A new liberal group is offering a $100,000 reward for information about conservative political groups that leads to a conviction or fines for breaking campaign finance or tax laws. The liberal organization, Accountable America, was formed to combat conservative donors or organizations who run ads attacking the Democratic Party and its congressional candidates.
“They’re really operating on the assumption that they can remain in the shadows,” Judd Legum, an adviser to the group. “That’s one of the primary ways to accomplish what we’re looking for. If you can shed some light on these organizations and the people who fund them, you’ll end up with a better result.”
Oh yeah? Look in the mirror you dork.
The idea is to create a sense of scandal around the groups, said founder Tom Matzzie, recently a key leader of MoveOn.org. “We really want to ask these donors whether they want to be associated with some of these people,” Matzzie said.
Oh yeah? Look in the mirror you dork is my line and is suppose to be at the bottom of the post. Oops, my obamao, er, my bad.
