Democrats are screaming that the funding for the Swift Boat Vets should be investigated.

OK.

But what about the funding for "Vote for Change" rock-music tour?

«Dead silence from the left»

Hello out there ... what about funding for the "Vote for Change" rock-music tour?

«Sound of wind whistling through the trees»

Well, in case you're interested, its MoveOn PAC:

The Vote for Change tour says it is sponsored by MoveOn PAC, with proceeds going to the liberal advocacy group, America Coming Together (ACT).

"ACT is a 527 organization"bankrolled substantially by Hungarian-born billionaire George Soros," said Peter Flaherty, president of the National Legal and Policy Center. Soros also has donated $18 million in recent years through his Open Society Institute to groups that advocate tighter campaign finance laws, Flaherty added.

Now I doubt that the Republican National Committee is going to sic gangs of lawyers on them or the venues that host them, have screaming, hissing fits and whine about the "money trail" in this one, but it is instructive to note the duality of the Democrat position when it comes to their side funding something as opposed to the other side.

I call this a 'cricket comment'. You say something and all you get back is the soft chirping of crickets.

The Swifties better be prepared...the Dems. are sending out their dossiers on them to their friendly media outlets. They can expect a slew of personal attacks from the press shortly

And that's just on example among MANY.

Of course, as I said on another thread, it's not really "news" when they do something like that, as it's so common...
