But Galehouse isn't referring to lawyer Benjamin Ginsberg, who provided legal advice to the Bush campaign and to the Swift Boat Vets. Ginsberg had no input into any of the SBV activities. |

("directing" the SBVets??? Perhaps more like innocently answered some question or two.) And many of those SBVets are DemocRATs! I note that the Kerry campaign has close ties to a lot of 527's (like MoveOn.org) AND Michael Moore.One would have to be very naive to believe they do not communicate with (or "direct")some 527's.Kerry had MoveOn people on his platform at the DNC convention,IIRC. And he has NOT disavowed their ads,nor Fahrenheit 911. -- Jim Yanik jyanik-at-kua.net |

Sounds like you're misinterpreting the news. Exactly. He didn't lie, he was a legal professional, who thought his personal ethics should not be in question. Kerry has the same legal professionals, and they don't think it is a question of ethics. I believe both are right, however I also believe that the 527's are bad for politics and individual campaigns. If they were about party politics, rather than individual politics, then I think they would serve an useful purpose. People with billions of dollars, and a short time to spend it (on either side) can't be trusted to remain reasonable, and they have proven this by billions spent on dredging-up the Vietnam war, and all the losers associated with that era. It's like an American Legion convention for president of the legion, rather than the worlds last superpower. Billions of dollars spent on television ads to argue about history from 35 years ago, rather than the future, and each parties goals for American policy. It's a disgrace, and pure theater. Only the actors will get anything out of it. Cleland, for example, should get an Academy Award for best supporting actor. He looks like he really means it, even though we know it's only a fictional story. |

Exactly. I'm rather surprised by your admission. Billions of dollars spent on television ads to argue about history from 35 years ago, rather than the future, and each parties goals for American policy. Well, the Republicans are trying to talk about the future, but the Kerry campaign and the mainstream media insist on focusing on Vietnam. |

Gee,what about free speech? Poor people have to group together to be able to afford TV ads,but McCain- Feingold put some limits on that,giving rise to the 527's.Poor people do not have the media to air their questions,complaints,or desires,either. The media leans vastly towards Kerry.The media is alleged to give Kerry a 15 point lead. Actually,the public has an opportunity to learn a great deal about Mr.Kerry,if they only pay attention. -- Jim Yanik jyanik-at-kua.net |

I wonder if anyone's told Max about that. Generally, I like Max Cleland, but I think he's gone way overboard recently. |
