Club for Growth PAC goes negative on Will Brooke in District 6

The conservative anti-tax group Club For Growth has launched an ad attacking Will Brooke, a Republican candidate for Alabama's 6th Congressional District, as being a "liberal" due to donations he made in the past to Democrats. In response, the Brooke campaign has strongly disputed the "liberal" characterization in the Club's ad, calling it "deceitful," and highlighted Brooke's history of donations to Republican candidates.

The ad, "Follow the Money," is a 30-second video spot paid for by Club for Growth's Super PAC arm, Club for Growth Action. The ad says Brooke, a Harbert Management executive, gave thousands of dollars to "liberal Democrats in Congress," and $10,000 to a Democratic gubernatorial candidate.

No he’s not. I spoke to Will last week, and I promise you, he’s not pro-amnesty. The whole thing with Laura Ingraham was because his words were misconstrued and taken out of context. Sorry, but I can’t sit idly by and allow the myth that Will Brooke is pro-amnesty to go unchallenged.

Well, it certainly sounds like Will Brooke is pro-amnesty. He’s a real “we need to have a path to legal status” (for the 11 million here illegally) type of RINO.

I suggest folks from that Alabama district listen to this:

He changed his mind about giving them legal status or he schooled himself on the issue?

Neither. But he also said that if you plan to bring out the paddy wagon and arrest them all, that’s not going to happen. And it isn’t going to happen.
