'Fox 21 news director says "Buck's people are throwing us under the bus" '

So far you guys are at two a day; are you planning to increase to three?

Who the fuck are you and why don't you know how to shut the hell up?

You realize that you've now complained about the original story wording, the retraction story about the wording, and now the continuing story... about the wording.  "Unity" is the bit you were disputing, right?  Now everyone's talking about it.  Good for you.  So why the complaining?

That diarrhea of the fingers must be rough on the keyboard.

Here let me help you and H-man out, BJ

1. Dems do it, too.
Here's the link: [sorry, no link. Seems to be an R problem]

2. It's the liberal media bias. [Oops, that's this comment]

3. There goes Pols, shooting the messenger. [Wait, that's you, BJ]

4. Voters don't care how sleazy R candidates are. [Rasmussen proves it]

When Buck stops taking "services" from shady third-party groups

Make sure you let us all know.

For such a so-called hard-hitting prosecutor, he sure seems content to let other people do his talking for him.

Of course, it doesn't cost him anything.

It's all about money, isn't it?

As I remember he had run out of lobbyist and Pac money and it was some shady group from DC.

As we have explained over and over,

Buck cannot legally stop "taking" ads from third party groups. If he told them to stop, it would be collusion, which is ILLEGAL!!!

Did you seriously post a story with the only source being

a candidate whose only major message is that the incumbent is corrupt?  Assuming it's even true, or that the reason the ads were pulled is because the candidates these groups support are all corrupt, this may have been one of those times you should wait for someone else to pick up on the story.  Or, if you want to make like real reporters, get a statement from the mystery media outlet.

Anyway, you also seem to be suggesting that the entire GOP is coordinating with these two groups, but that, if their ads are pulled for an investigation (valid or not), no one else will come up with any money.  In a state that actually could switch.

Look, I hate these two idiot groups and Buck as much as the next birth control using woman, but maybe wait for a real story?  Please?

The factual basis of the crime you accuse Buck is . . .

You state:

The connection dug up in Missouri between Republican Rep. Roy Blunt and outside interest groups like AJS may very well end up being made with Buck as well, and if so, it will play a major role in deciding whether Buck can defeat Sen. Michael Bennet in November.

Would you have the same factual basis that I would have in claiming:

Michael Bennet may very well end up having beaten his wife, and if so, it will play a major role in deciding whether Bennet can defeat Buck in November.

This is one of the few times that I appreciate the British system of libel jurisprudence.

Nice try, but logic fail

Groups that support Buck stand accused of coordinating with candidates in other states, in violation of the law.

Groups that support Buck are running attack that are so flagrantly false that media outlets refuse to run them.

Buck campaign has no money of its own. Buck's campaign depends on these same groups.

Therefore, it's logical to question whether Buck campaign engages in similar practices.

AJB your logic is unassailable. Your taste in Women(men) is impecable, but let me see if it works both ways . . .

Groups that support Bennet are accused of criminal activity.

Bennet is running an ad that has been truth tested as not true but keeps running it.

Bennet hangs out with crooks and he is a liar.

Therefore, it's logical to question whether anyone who supports him is a crook and a liar.

Seems just as logical?

But you ignore the glaringly significant details for Buck

Buck raised about $50 in the primary, yet had wayyyy more media than his opponent.

The claim was made then that he had coordinated with the 527's  buying all that media.

Now those 527's have been bounced form the airwaves in another race.

If they are bounced here, Buck will have far less media here.

I get that you don't like Buck's opponents. But this article is relevant, timely and evenly presented.

Buck's in the same boat

People seem to be forgetting, but Buck already stands accused of similar coordination. In fact, there's a pending FEC complaint against him...

http://www.csindy.com/IndyBlog...

Buck accused of campaign finance violation

Ken Buck, Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, has been accused of violating federal campaign rules by a Jane Norton fan. Norton, former lieutenant governor, hopes to petition onto the primary ballot to give Buck a run in August.

The news was reported by politico.com and is based on seven-page complaint dated May 18. Buck is expected to sweep the Republican assembly this weekend with backing from tea partiers.

---

by: catpuzzle @ Thu Sep 02, 2010 at 00:57:04 AM UTC

Yes, a Norton supporter filed a charge and it has not yet been dismissed.

These things take time.  If Buck charged you with murder, he is after all a DA, should we assume you did it before there has been any evidence of guilt?

Unfortunately filing bogus election charges is part of the handbook of DC insiders trying to stave off outsiders.

Of course

If you don't fuck up in the first place, there is no time.

Election charges are only "bogus" when they are adjudicated to be so.  Are you stepping in front of a real judge, or just shilling?  (Or both?)

They don't give out any information to anyone and they take years to decide anything.  All they will confirm is that a complaint has been received.

Cat, Don't you think the editors knew that?

and that is real reason why they are going with this made up story.  

They really like Mikey.  Barry told them to.  So they think it is OK to slime people who are running against people they like (see Romanoff, Andrew).  They know they have no evidence Buck did anything wrong.  

They are relying on those visitors with diminished brainpower who will overlook the fact that there is nothing in their story showing Buck did anything wrong. I know it is those wild-ass teapartyers that support the constitution that say you are innocent until proven guilty, but that stuff doesn't apply her on Pols.

I am glad to know that you were not fooled by them.
