"Let the Borking begin..."

"Does anyone know what time it is... Does anyone care" is from an old song that many of you may remember. What is happening to our country - and does anyone care?

NARAL will spend $500,000 to frighten cable news watchers and the people of Maine and Rhode Island, home to three liberal Republican senators. See (Manuel Miranda, WSJ) for the whole story. We know NARAL is a BIG MONEY special interest group. Yesterday(this Blog) we said "If it pays, it plays." Today we learn that radio, newspapers, and TV are going for the MONEY! They KNOW that the ads are WRONG - yet they DON"T CARE!.

Judge Roberts is being portrayed as an advocate of gays and protector of bombers of clinics.
But here are the facts: The footage of the victims shown in the ad came from a clinic bombing in 1998... , years after Roberts had left government service, and the case Roberts argued in 1991 had nothing to do with clinic bombings, but whether or not the federal Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871 could be used to prosecute pro-life protestors for trespassing ..., not bombings.

The ugliness of the ad by the NAACP showing a black being drug to death in Texas and associating it with George W. Bush a candidate for U.S. PRESIDENT raises its ugly head. The NAACP soon found that the PUBLIC cared. There was an outrage and the ad was killed.

What can we do about it? We can express our outrage by letting the advertisers know that we are outraged by calling and writing them. DEMAND the ad be killed. Cancel subscriptions, and refuse to watch or listen to their stations : THAT'S MONEY - more than the ad pays.

To members of Congress let them know that "Borking Judge ROBERTS" doesn't pay.
