I am amused at those that believe it really matters which member of the two party duopoly gets the nomination. Even if the R’s win the Senate seat, they’ll be assimilated immediately and the federal leviathan will continue to grow…

Think outside the establishment… or just keeping get it.

Hey Donald, speaking of stories, when is the story of Jane’s amnesty plan going to come out? It’s all detailed in Colorado Public Radio, 7/16/10:

Illegals do a background check and 30 days of community service. Since they’ve had “punishment”, you can no longer call it amnesty.

[...] Heelgate just won’t die. People’s Press Collective, a Colorado-based grassroots liberty organization, would like a few words with Ms. Norton. Seems most of the video from Norton’s whiny ode to victimhood latest TV spot–the one where Ken Buck so controversially shared his footwear preferences–is pulled directly from the PPC’s website. [...]

For those of you, like Donald, who think that copyright law means nothing, I’m sure you won’t mind when I lift your work and use it as my own. Would you?

What about plagiarism? Does that bother you?

That’s how we roll…

I literally laughed out loud when I read that, Eileen.

Good stuff.

Don,

As soon as I read your question, my immediate reaction was exactly what El Prez replied. What I don’t understand is why you pounce on Buck with his 527 special interest money and not on Jane’s cozy ties with special interests.

I don’t deny that the 527s certainly have the potential of influencing Buck, but so do contributors to Jane. Am I missing something? Isn’t Jane getting a lot of PAC money. She’s not just living hand to mouth on contributions of $550 or under.

The copyright violation committed so brazenly by Jane should be placed in a similar category as McInnis’ plagiarism (note I said similar, not identical). She’s behaving the same as the scumbags at Colorado Pols, which has been threatened by many MSM outlets in CO for their massive copyright violations.

The Denver Post, by contrast, gave credit to PPC both in their accompanying article and kept the titles on the video. Isn’t that pretty scumbaggy?

I’d like to know to what extent you think Jane would be beholden to special interests, and why?

Gracias

[...] morning, Eileen Mahony, D.C. Bureau Chief for the People’s Press Collective, put up a very amusing piece about how the Norton campaign borrowed rather liberally from PPC to produce their latest attack ad [...]

Don:
PPC favors the truth.
That just doesn’t fit very well with some of its bloggers like you and Ross who have chosen a candidate who can’t handle the truth.
Give it some time Don. In a couple weeks it will be over.

This post isn’t an endorsement of Buck.

It is sticky because the video used by Norton was produced by PPC itself, not some other media outlet or third party organization.

That should be patently obvious to you Don.

Why is PPL favoring Buck. I thought the site didn’t endorse. Why not show the misleading ads that Americans for Job Security and others are running for Buck?

I think Norton’s attack ad is great. It makes a point in the time available. If Buck is such a great candidate, why hasn’t he raised enough money to let him run his own ads instead on ads paid for by government contractors and produced and run for the secretive AJS?

I haven’t decided who to vote for in this race. I”m just wondering why this story is stuck and others are not?
