Lets help the Chamber of Commerce

[jillian]

The rule of law. What a 501 (c) (4) is, and what it isn't.

really? are you a lawyer? or are you an accountant?

I think Revere can read.... and then apply logic.

You dont have to be a lawyer to understand ANY of this.

That's delusional.

You have to know what the statute requires and what it prohibits.

reading a news article or listening to rodeo clowns like glen beck doesn't teach you that.

but i'd like to know the basis for his purported expertise.

i'm figuring he's another blowhard.

 

[rightwinger]

Give this time

It won't be long before we know all about the Chambers financing and political ties....Beck or not

 

[Revere]

Obama already knows, because he cribbed their tax returns.

He would tell you if he found something.

do you always make up trash in your head and decide it's true?

again... are you a lawyer or an accountant?

 

[Revere]

Obama is too good a thug not to have that dirt, if it existed.

Can you name anything about any of his political enemies that only came out after an election when it was too late to use it?

I can only think of one...John Edwards....but he needed to keep Edwards in the primaries to draw votes from Hillary. If it had been down to Edwards and Obama, Obama would have dished on Edwards.

My details don't matter.

Give this investigation more time and we will find out about how innocent the Chamber really is.

details DO matter.

otherwise you're just a boring troll and not worth anyone's time.

but keep on pretending you know about 501(c)(4) corps, etc.

*yawn*

Obama already has their tax records.

Like Koch Industries.

He's too good not to have already done that.

 

[saveliberty]

Another fine use of tax dollars. This adminstration has made an expensive habit out of using government to harass political opponents. This is going to backfire on Obama badly.

*Newsflash*​

The Infidel listened to the Glenn Beck radio show today!​

Yes, indeed I did, and I have to admit.... he convinced me to make a small donation to The Chamber of Commerce

He controled my weak little mind!!!!!



Well actually, I just agreed that since Barak Hussein Obama hates the CoC so much... I thought I might help an enemy of an enemy.....
The Chamber of Commerce, whether you like them or not, does help small buisinesses, and thats what drives the American econmy.... is small buisiness.
Its obvious to all free thinking Americans, and many outsiders, that Obama is doing all he can to hurt our economy so it can be rebuilt in a manner the left sees fit. Which is redistributing the wealth throughout America.
That just is'nt what the framers of this great country had in mind.

So anyways.... I just wanted to put it out there, and leave a link to their website and if you decide to help them out, great. If not, thats cool too....

Oh, you must be a foreigner to be giving money to the COC!

So that's how they get republicans to vote against their best interests. The Chamber is pro-outsourcing. Gets money hand over fist from companies that want to outsource. Then OUR jobs get outsourced...No Coincidence there. And all they have to do to get your money is say "Look THEY dont like us, Dont you hate those guys? Great, give me some money!"

And your mind was changed because "creating a false enemy to gain more support" worked on you. have you even read "1984"? Or are you of the mind that creating an enemy is something only "the left" does?"

If Democrats were against outsourcing they would have lowered the corporate tax rate to zero by now and have all those busineses here.

I bet that concept just blows your miniscule mind.

Obama's attacks on business should have stopped with the campaign trail. It's a large reason for the ass kicking coming in Nov, and could limit him to one term.

Oh my Lord, everyone sit down, strap yourselves in, this could be a one hell of a ride.

I ACTUALLY AGREE WITH TOPSPIN!

Civilization will now end as we know it!

 

[teapartysamurai]

Silly little things think we dont want them to donate to the coc. I dont mind if you donate to them, I dont want foreign entities to donate to them.

They are supposed to help American business NOT foriegn business.

Half of the AFL-CIO's unions are international.

It's only okay when liberals get foreign money. Didn't you know that?

When libs switch sides it is usually because their entitlement ran out.

The reason I ignore Revere is because he never said Unions use foriegn money in campaigns (which is the issue) he just says Unions have international offices. That's great but has nothing to do with the topic unless he wants to explain what he's talking about.

I guess we made our point.... did they hear us though?

Hmm.... who knows

Beck Breaks Fundraising Record for Chamber | The FOX Nation

 

[georgephillip]

"The largest attack campaign against Democrats this fall is being waged by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, a trade association organized as a 501(c)(6) that can raise and spend unlimited funds without ever disclosing any of its donors.

"The Chamber has promised to spend an unprecedented $75 million to defeat candidates like Jack Conway, Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA), Jerry Brown, Rep. Joe Sestak (D-PA), and Rep. Tom Perriello (D-VA).

"As of Sept. 15th, the Chamber had aired more than 8,000 ads on behalf of GOP Senate candidates alone, according to a study from the Wesleyan Media Project.

"The Chamber’s spending has dwarfed every other issue group and most political party candidate committee spending.

"A ThinkProgress investigation has found that the Chamber funds its political attack campaign out of its general account, which solicits foreign funding.

"And while the Chamber will likely assert it has internal controls, foreign money is fungible, permitting the Chamber to run its unprecedented attack campaign.

"According to legal experts consulted by ThinkProgress, the Chamber is likely skirting longstanding campaign finance law that bans the involvement of foreign corporations in American elections."

Does anyone seriously doubt the Chamber is doing this to widen the gap between the richest 1% of Americans and everyone else?

The class system is a fabrication of parasitic progressive attack dogs.

 

[georgephillip]

10,000 Americans make 30% of the total annual US income.

Are they parasites or attack dogs?
