Default Google bitch-slaps the NRCC

Now this is truly insane. The National Republican Congressional
Committee is tricking would-be Democratic campaign donors into making
donations to defeat the candidates they support -- with Republican
websites that look like they could easily be the campaign pages of
Democratic candidates.

First, after public backlash, they had to start offering refunds to
donors who'd been misled, and now, Google has put a "reported phishing
website" warning on at least the anti-Alex Sink site.

Standard Republican strategy: win elections through committing fraud,
because they know they can't win them by honest means.

Good grief you libs are stupid beyond belief. And I say
"you libs", not just malformend, because it came from a
leading lib website.
The three examples shown in that link are not fraud and
they are as clear as day.
You'd have to be incredibly stupid to not realize that the
website is seeking donations *against* the candidate:

"Make a contribution today to defeat Martha Robertson and
candidates like her"

Make a contribution today to defeat Ann Kirkpatrick and
candidates like her"

Are you libs so totally stupid that you can't read plain
English? Apparently so, or you wouldn't be here bitching.


How about some real fraud:

"If you like your current healthcare plan, you can keep it,
nothing changes"

"If you like your current doctor, you can keep him, nothing
changes"

"There's not aeven a smidgen of corruption at the IRS"


Where's your outrage about THAT?

the websites appear to violate a Federal Election Commission regulation prohibiting political committees and parties from using a candidate's name in special projects. The FEC considers websites, including microsites, a special project falling under this rule. The only exception is when the site makes it unambiguously clear it is opposed to the candidate. In Ryan's opinion, the page set up under Tierney's name "does not unambiguously show opposition to Tierney." However, he noted, the FEC is "not a nimble organization" and it can take two years to complete an investigation, well past election day.

If I must answer, the answer is yes.

How about some real fraud:

"If you like your current healthcare plan, you can keep it,
nothing changes"

"If you like your current doctor, you can keep him, nothing
changes"

"There's not aeven a smidgen of corruption at the IRS"

"Smidgen" is not a legal term. The proper words would have been
"scintilla of evidence" of criminality!

Now Lerner's name turned up on e-mails. See why she "tried" to take
the Fifth? The targeting of the Tea Party was not just some
"bone-headed" employees at the IRS. **** floated to the top.

Funny thing is, the lib's think they have cornered the market on
polite politics.

Make it stop.

but if it's okay with you, I guess the Dems will be creating similar

they are now, wait a minute they aren't, are they

So, you admit you libs are too stupid to read.
For starters, you've swallowed the recycled dog
food presented to you by ThinkProgress. If there
is fraud going on, I'd say it's by them. In
the examples they show, they don't show the whole
web page, which would give you a fair picture.
They only show what they *chose* to
excerpt from it. The one link they do provide to
an actual website they are bitching about is John
Tierney and it's full page of why to vote against
him. It starts out with accusing Tierney's
family of being involved in illegal gambling operations:

"John Tierney may be infamous for his family's involvement with their illegal international gambling operation in Antigua, but Tierney is also one of the most extreme and partisan members of Congress whose unwillingness to work in a bipartisan way is holding our economy hostage. While middle class families in Massachusetts are trying their best to provide for their families, Tierney's out-of-the-mainstream policies will make it even harder for them to do that.



Here is what you need to know about John Tierney:
*John Tierney's brothers-in-law ran an illegal, international gambling ring in Antigua. Tierney's wife Patrice managed $7 million of that gambling money and she personally received close to a quarter-of-a-million in those gambling proceeds. Patrice went to jail for her involvement, but pleaded spousal privilege so that she would not have to testify against her husband, a sitting Congressman. Despite all of this, Tierney claims he knew nothing.
*In 2011 and 2013, Tierney voted for the Grijalva Budget, which would tax Massachusetts businesses at rates between 45% and 49% and would add a financial transactions tax that would harm middle class families saving for retirement.
*In fact, Tierney's budget vote was so out-of-the-mainstream that it couldn't get a majority of Democrats to vote for it, with even Nancy Pelosi voting against it. In talking about the budget that Tierney supports, former President Bill Clinton said: "Its corporate tax proposals are so at variance with even our high-tax competitors that multi-nationals may be tempted to relocate to other countries," and that the financial transactions tax could lead to "high-dollar transactions now done in the United States being moved overseas with a net loss in revenue from the taxable incomes of people who do the transactions." Moreover, Clinton notes that the budget Tierney supported does nothing to help save Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid."



Fed up with John Tierney? - Sign up Today



So, what you're saying is Democrats are so dumb
that when a website links a candidate to illegal
gambling at the very beginning, lists all kinds
of reasons not to vote for him and ends with
"Fed up with John Tierny?", they think it's one raising money for Tierney.

I can parse that and the rest of the page too. It's not like
the rest of the page is in fine print. All the negatives one after
the other, slamming the candidate, are right there in front of anyone
looking at that webpage too. And right below where they have the
big button to click that says DONATE, it says in type half as big
as the button "Fed up with John Tierney - Sign up". It's not like
it's in fine print. People can't fathom that a website that
says that isn't his campaign? How dumb can you be? If you can't read,
you can ask for your money back and they have refunded it to at least one
dummy who complained

Is it playing a little dirty? Sure. Luring people in who are
interested in the guy and then showing them the GOP version of
what the guy is about. Comparing it to the IRS targeting
conservatives is a joke. It's a campaign. Is what they are doing
any worse than the Democrats running ads against Romney, lying about
his being responsible for the death of a wife of a steel worker,
years after Romney had anything to do with that company?
Being some robber barron that threw everyone out of their jobs?
You libs took a guy that's a classic American entrepreneur, helping create
hundreds of thousands of jobs at Staples, Sports Authority, Steel Dynamics,
Totes, Dominoes Pizza..... Rescuing businesses that were failing.
You found the few where they were not successful in turning them
around and successfully lied in ads to make people think that was
all he did. You ran ads that were total lies.
So, I guess if you can do that, then the Republicans can do these
websites. And note that both of those are about *campaigns*, where
a lot of that stuff goes on with both sides, not using one of the
most powerful and feared govt agencies for political purposes.
