the donors will be harassed, and audited, and audited, and audited for now and evermore. On November 4, 2008, the United States of America became a banana republic.

While two Federal Election Commission members sided with the Tea Party Leadership Fund and said its evidence of harassment was stronger than documentation provided by the Socialist Workers Party, other commission members said the situation was not the same. The FEC denied the group’s request in a 3 to 2 vote. …
True kakistocratic action there. Defend the SWP but attack constitutionalists.

The hypocrisy of the arguments for disclosure is astounding.

When subversives write the rules and rule the committees, the communists have won.

I believe that all donors should be disclosed, without exception. Political contributions should be unlimited, but should be posted on a publicly available website within 24 hours. Candidates, PAC, advocacy groups, non profits should all be required to report contributions. No exceptions.

Right now, only contributions to conservatives are required to be reported.

Oh my goodness!

All us Taxed Enough Already types, who value sane policy over partisan politics, are to be silenced, if we do not pay to play on, and/or join either the D or R union type teams!

Is this an official card check attempt against USA citizens by our RICO crime filled government?Or is the government class declaring war against we citizens, as potential members of a criminal conspiracy to stop their unconstitutional operations, and thus be deemed subject to RICO crimes?
Why yes, I believe it is both!

This is part of the Democrat reelection plan for 2014 & 2016. Democrat operatives here in WI are engaged in a fishing expedition to unmask conservative donors by saying they are looking for election law violations in the recent recall Gov.Walker effort [the left’s efforts failed]. Once outed, expect leftist boycotts against business donors & private home demonstrations v. individual donors.

It will be impossible to prove harassment of individuals. Their tentacles are everywhere, squeezing, squeezing.

I guess what they should do is just make mass appeals for the candidates they support....no money collected...no names to list....of course they need seed money to do it..
