It's a very amusing situation.


Sure is! Which side had a campaign worker resign after it was revealed that
he lied about directing the No-So-Swifties' activities? Bush's side, of
course.


Well, it's even more amusing than you know, which I assume probably isn't
any great revelation to people who know you.

Ben Ginsburg is a lawyer who specializes in federal election law.
(Something I assume has only a limited number of practioners.) He was,
until he resigned, one of the Bush campaign's outside legal counsels.

He also represented (as an attorney) these Swift Boat vets on matters
related to federal election law.

For liberals that represented a suspicious nexus. Obviously he must
be passing messages between the two (even tho that would probably be
a breach of client confidentiality). The media (liberal toadies)
would obviously have a field day with this, inventing all manner of
fiction. So, according to this standard, Ben must resign.

So poor ol' Ben fell on his sword for Bush.

Now, here comes the funny part.

The Kerry campaign shares an attorney, Robert Bauer, with "America
Coming Together," a liberal 527 group which claims to be interested in
getting out the vote (not for Bush, tho). There's also Harold Ickes.
Ickes organized "America Coming Together" along with "The Media Fund,"
another 527 group. Ickes sits on the executive committee of the
Democratic National Committee. Then there's Gov. Bill Richardson (D-NM).
He serves on the board of "The New Democrat Network," yet another
527. Oh, by the way, there is also Jim Jordan, who resigned from the
Kerry campaign last November. Mr. Jordan is spokesman for "The Media
Fund."

Oh, then there's Perkins Coie, a law firm. It represents Kerry and
"America Coming Together." There's also Joe Sandler. He's top outside
counsel to the Democratic National Committee. Sandler also represents
MoveOn.org Voter Fund. As an aside, Sandler formerly defended
Ginsburg's right to represent both Bush and Swift Boats, but starting
on Aug. 25, he referred questions on this matter to the DNC.

As I said, it's all very amusing! Will the Democrats apply the
same high standards to themselves as they apply to others? ;-)

Don't hold your breath, folks! It's a well known fact that Democrats
(aka "liberals") are arrogant hypocrites with no moral center who
couldn't tell the truth to save their collective mother's soul. Etc.
Etc. Etc.

That's why John Kerry isn't fit to serve as street sweeper.

And it's all very, very funny! I expect to see an expose on Democrat
hypocracy and violations of McCain-Feingold tomorrow on PBS/NPR. ;-)
