GOP & US Chamber of Commerce Threaten The USA

Whoever sincerely thinks the Chamber isn't using foreign money has their head shoved up their ass.

They have spent more than 10 million on ads alone, for nearly all GOP candidates. They are using their general account, which solicits foreign money to fund these attack ads.

Of course they'll claim they have internal safeguards to make sure no foreign money goes to political ads, but of course, money is fungible. In other words, If they say they aren't using foreign money on our elections, they're full of sh-t.

TruthOut has a great article, explaining how they are doing it, and how they are getting away with it.

Of course, the usual RW subjects, Rove and the boys, have instead of adressing the issue, pointed fingers at "Soros" and ThinkProgress. What they fail to mention, is that ThinkProgress doesn't buy political ads. And they fully disclose their mission, instead of lying about it. Greg Sargent did an excellent fact-checking piece on this- The Plum Line - How about some fact-checks of Karl Rove's and right's falsehoods?

With all of these facts standing, only one, GOP candidate, that I know of, have called on the Chamber to disclose exactly who's funding these attack ads- Gloves come off in Senate debate

Everyone should be outraged over this. But instead, righties don't care. The chamber is the exact same lot of people who've funded efforts to block disclosure reform over and over. That oughta tell you something.

Your side is losing. Deal with it.

Losing to what? Foriegn money? The money the chamber is pouring in is unprecedented! Why would they refuse to release who's funding 'em? Something to hide?

They just made a full disclosure.

Obama already illegally obtained News Corp's tax returns. If there were anything wrong, he would have told you.

Is money "clean" if it supports the right causes?

:cuckoo:


another Right Wing Lunacy @ USMB attack based on fabrications and lies. :cuckoo:

Really now?
Koch Industries Lawyer to White House: How Did You Get Our Tax Information? | The Weekly Standard

Federal Eye - Treasury IG to review allegations against Austan Goolsbee



"The statement that Koch is a pass-through entity implies direct knowledge of Koch's legal and tax status, which would appear to be a violation of" federal tax laws, Grassley and his colleagues wrote to TIGTA in late September. "Alternatively, if the statement was based on speculation, it raises the question of whether the administration speculating about any specific taxpayer's liability is appropriate."
Word.

Wake me up when ThinkProgress has an audit in its hand.

The White House already grabbed Koch Industries confidential tax returns and got nothing.
see? Now you're making things up. You have just stated an allegation as a fact.

The liberal main stream media has this: Federal Eye - Treasury IG to review allegations against Austan Goolsbee

A group of Senate Republicans, led by Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa), announced Wednesday that the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration plans to review the allegations against Goolsbee. But TIGTA sources stressed the office is only reviewing the allegations and has not determined whether it will launch a more formal investigation.
 
Maybe if leftist wackaloons like you would quit trying to tax and regulate businesses out of business, they'd have more incentive to stay in America.

Just sayin'.

Didn't you mean to say: "Maybe if leftist wackaloons like you would work for Chinese wages, they'd have more incentive to stay in America"?


At 39% corporate tax rate the highest in the world what business wouldn't leave?

The United States Chamber of Commerce is FOR keeping Jobs in this country--otherwise they would cease to exist.

Morons are in abundance especially when they're desperate--:lol:

leave? where the fuck have you been? other nations are starting their own businesses now. they don't need or want American businesses.

wake up! what a dope
 
The difference between Union money and the CoC's money is Union's work to keep our jobs here, and aren't using the same account to buy ads as they receive foreign money with. The chamber wants to elect people who support giving tax breaks to those who ship jobs overseas, and use the same account to attack Democrats as they receive foreign money with. Not too hard to understand, unless your a partisan hack that doesn't care.
