'Swift Boat' Money Man Has New Target AP BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (Sept. 19) - A group behind automated phone calls attacking Democratic congressional candidate Baron Hill is being funded by the Republican donor who helped bankroll the Swift Boat attack ads on Democratic Sen. John Kerry's war record.

Indiana is investigating phone calls targeting a congressional candidate.

Bob J. Perry, a Texas homebuilder with close ties to White House adviser Karl Rove and former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, recently donated $5 million to the Economic Freedom Fund, a newly created California group targeting Democratic candidates.(snip)

We never get automatic phone calls in our home targeting Democrats in Congress. But I get lots of them every week trashing Republicans. Any word about who is financing that on-going campaign?

Now that Soros holds the balls of the Democrat party in a financial vise... I'd say it's him.

No such condemnation of Soros, Buffet, etc. who support Liberal garbage.

The hypocrisy of the Socialist Liberal Media knows no bounds.

Check out this fact:

"In one particularly shocking passage in the book, Oppenheimer quotes a campaign official who describes an angry attack by Hillary in which she screams at him, 'You fucking Jew bastard!'

Two sourced eyewitnesses confirmed to Oppenheimer that they heard the verbal assault."

I saw this too and had a good laugh. I'm in awe at how leftwing AP's supposed generic ''news'' stories have become.

"Swift Boat Money Man?" I just had a flashback of the guy who swept the tank for coins at a carnival ride.

What is to investigate. Is it now against the law to make political phone calls. Congress gave itself that exclusion from the DO NOT CALL list.

Apparently in Indiana automated calls are illegal. What's the penalty? Or is it going to be a dragged out political scandal? My home was illegally called Oh my!

Here in Joisey I get anti-Ferguson calls all the time. I usually let the recording run to the end, hopefully costing the demons money.

Exactly! Here, let me fix it:

In the 2004 presidential race, the group of Vietnam veterans made unsubstantiated unrefuted allegations challenging Kerry's unsubstantiated record of alleged wartime heroism.

I think many of us here at FreeRepublic were the Swift Boat Money Men. I know I sent in a couple of donations.

I wish they'd investigate and tell us the truth about McCain. Once I read that when all the POW's returned home, they were shown on TV getting off a plane: all but McCain were emaciated and starving while he looked hale and hearty.
I've also heard that he did get special treatment because he
went along with those who emprisoned him. What is the truth?

Where did you hear that?

If it's true... I'll write the book MYSELF. McLame is a cancer within our party; he stands at the center of many of the legislative/administrative holdups which directly threaten the security of our republic.

Is this race against Pence?
I know Hill is in that area of Indiana, where I used to live.

Do you recall Soros being described in the LSM as a moneyman?

Me neither.

The swife boat heros had the temerity to come forward and tell the truth about sKerry and his 3 purple hearts in 4 months and never once entering a hospital. The nerve of these vets who served with him to point this out. BTW, I gave money to these great Americans on a couple of occassions as well. It was money well spent.
