This outstanding non-partisan (sic) group has run two ads in Virginia in the last twenty minutes. The first attacked Obama for the bail-out without mentioning McCain. The second praised McCain's leadership in fighting Fannie and Freddie, which appear to be Black Panther front organizations judging from the tone of the ad.
Further evidence of this groups non-partisan nature, and how they do not work to elect or defeat any candidate (which would be a violation of the election finance laws John McCain wrote) is this, from their home page.
Who bears the responsibility for this crisis?
As the Washington blame-game heads into double overtime, with fingers pointing across the aisle at which party bears the blame for this mess, the fact is, there is plenty of blame to go around. Sen. Barack Obama, one of the loudest critics of the firms, has been on the receiving end of over $125,000 in campaign contributions from Fannie and Freddie since his election to the U.S. Senate four years ago - the highest amount of any Member of Congress over the last 10 years. Fifty seven percent of Fannie and Freddie contributions have been made to Democratic members.
As you watch Members of Congress denounce the barons of greed who precipitated the financial crisis, remind yourself: today's criminal was yesterday's contributor.
