Sowing the Seeds of Liberalism

Sowing the Seeds of Liberalism
As you may have seen over the last couple of weeks, CCM Chairman Ken Blackwell has been all over Fox News attacking ACORN for their voter fraud practices in key swing states.  Taking on ACORN is a major battle, and I appreciate all the groups out there who are hammering away.   The bad news it, there are plenty of other fights to pick with these groups, some of which seemingly take their fundraising cues from the

Question Mark Guy.  [# More #] Take a look at PIRG (Ralph Nader's group) and the Legal Services Corporation (Hillary' Clinton's group) -  two Leftist organizations that rely on government handouts and "dues" to fight their battles against conservative, American values.

Until then, we will be forced to continue our current operations within the movement: complain, whine, and lose.
