"...run that list for federal elections contributions."

Heh heh heh...my money is on those contributions being predominantly DemonRAT. The Left has long been milking these Estates and Trusts to further their Socialist causes, and it'd be interesting to see how many of these huge stores of cash are blatantly flouting our tax laws by being so partisan in their giving. Limbaugh touched on this a bit today, when he discussed the National Organization for Women's contributions to RAT campaigns, as well as the AFL-CIO's and other alleged non-profits. These organizations risk losing their tax-free status if they become involved in partisan support, and many of these sources donate almost exclusively to RAT candidates.

FReegards...MUD

You could probably attempt to run NOW's board for donations, but it's not illegal to use private funds to donate to a political candidate. The real problem is that leftist non-profits exist which are being used to funnel big time salaries to these players.

I'll go look for NOW's and AFL-CIO stuff. BRB.

Just visited the website "Guidestar.org". The database shows a huge result list for NOW. It appears that NOW is organized with each state having a different non-profit corporation. There exists a "National Organization for Women Foundation, Inc." in Washington DC with a few hundred thousand dollars of assets. Reading the tax return states in Part VII of the Form 990 that:

Related organizations include National Organization for Women, Inc., a 501c4; Naitonal Organization for Women PAC; and National Organization for Women Equality PAC.

Salaries at National Organization for Women, Inc. are eye popping!

Patricia Ireland, $153,783 salary and $7423 employee benefits

Kim Gandy, $125,962 salary and $6095 benefits

Karen Johnson, $126,135 salary, $6095 benefits

Elizabeth Toledo, $58,957 salary, $2947 benefits

Loretta Kane, $60042 salary, $4228 benefits

NOW's National Officers are Patricia Ireland, President; Kim Gandy, VP Executive; Karen Johnson, VP Membership; Loretta Kane, VP Action.

Oh, and I almost forgot the link!

501c4 status is supposedly non-partisan. However, they organized a PAC to handle contributions. Those PACs are legally donating exclusively to women (sexism?) and democrats (Boxer et al).
