The glossy fliers turned up in mailboxes in Massachusetts (http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/related/topic/Massachusetts?tid=informline)'s 5th Congressional District the weekend before the election. "No one should be signing blank checks to President Bush (http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/related/topic/George+W.+Bush?tid=informline)!" announced one, urging recipients to "Call Jim Ogonowski (http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/related/topic/Jim+Ogonowski?tid=informline) and tell him you don't agree with his spending priorities!"
Another showed a young girl blowing on a dandelion. "President Bush feels she doesn't deserve healthcare," it said. "Under the Niki Tsongas Plan, kids get the healthcare they need!"
-- snip --
Instead, they were produced by a group with the audaciously ironic name Democracy Still Works. Staffed by Massachusetts Democratic strategists, it was created (http://forms.irs.gov/politicalOrgsSearch/search/Print.action?formId=27479&formType=E71) Sept. 28; it won't have to report the source of its money or how much it spent until January.
More 'Rats in Action (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/10/30/AR2007103001823.html)
Just how much of this crap are we going to have to put up with from the 'Rats in '08? Totally Pathetic!!! :flame:
