Hello, just a short diary to ask why an ad (Which I think is district specific) from an arch right wing/Republican house organ like 60plus Association is on the very top of my page here touting how a Republican back bench rah-rah woman like Ann Marie Buerkle (R-NY 25) has voted to "save" Medi-care.
1. First off, 60Plus Association is a Big Pharma Front Group and for more about these critters see Source Watch
JUMP!
2, Next, Buerkle's voting record is on display for all to see at sites like Gov Track for all to see.
Now I grant you advertising is a "buyer beware" situation but sly misrepresentation of actions by a right wing Republican back bench cheerleader like Buerkle are sickening! I mean on par with Saturday Hate Mail-Palooza.
I also realize that it gives the site money and we are a fair group when it comes to advertising and making room for differing opinions and such. BUT! This is not a differing opinion case! This is providing a sounding board for lies.
Ann Buerkle is the most reactionary Republican to hold this district since George Wortley had it during the Reagan years. Misrepresentation of Buerkle's anti-Planned Parenthood-anti-old folks-anti fair tax burden policies may be all the rage with the way out crowd, but do we here have to endure it?
I realize that the ad may be district specific and targeted to NY-25, but it still does not make Buerkle or her filthy front groups any better.
Please help weed out the winger lie machines....please.
