Good job everyone.
Joe Sudbay of AmericaBlog and Reverend Lennox Yearwood delivered 32,000 signatures to the FEC, cosigning the complaint filed last Thursday against John McCain and his campaign. It took three reams of paper and 1,400 pages to print it all out. This morning at a McCain event in Alexandria, McCain was introduced as a “hero” because of his work in campaign finance reform. Right. The guy who helped to write the law now doesn’t want to obey it, just because there’s nobody around to enforce it…read on
You can still cosign the complaint here. If you missed the story you can read all about it here. As Jane rightfully says. The law applies to everyone else—except—John McCain. I’m working on a fun little contest that I should have up and running in a few days about this very issue.
No Trackbacks To “Delivery of 32,000 Cosignatures to FEC Complaint Against McCain“
I’m proud to say my signature is on that petition. Heh.
Can we please all do the same and send a message to Bush to go home now!!!
Of course not, Pat J. That would require somebody in Congress being an adult and doing the damn job we hired them to do!!
Ahlyssah is right. We need someone with balls!
Washington D.C. (AF) 4/1/08 - Vice President Dick Cheney announced today the results of a secret search that has been underway since John McCain sewed up the Republican nomination for the 2008 presidential race. Since that time, Vice President Cheney has been the chair of John McCain’s vice-presidential search committee, and today has announced the results. In a surprising result, the search committee has selected its own chair, Vice President Cheney, to run as vice president.
In announcing his selection as vice president on the McCain/Cheney ticket, Dick Cheney said “So? Of course I’m the best candidate. I have nearly eight years experience as Vice President, who else can make that claim?”
Reached at his home in Tennessee, former two-term vice president Al Gore sighed heavily, but declined to comment when informed of Vice President Cheney’s qualifications.
Shares on Wall Street surged at news of Vice President Cheney’s selection as Vice President under McCain. “It’s good to know that there will be a continuity of the policies that have strengthened the nation,” said an oil-company executive on conditions of anonymity, “Legislators are expensive, but Vice Presidents are outrageously priced. I’m glad we won’t have to shell out for another one till 2016. I have bills to buy like everyone else, and I have to purchase a college for my kid, so this takes the pressure off.”
When asked whether a Vice President can serve four consecutive terms under the Constitution, Vice President Cheney told this reporter, “Go f^$@ yourself.”
snark!
Happy April Fools’ Day everyone!
btw, here’s a real winner I heard today on NPR!

Wow, I signed it and now my printed name has been delivered to the FEC. I wonder if I’m going to find myself on the no-fly list now. Or worse.
sign this one and you’ll be entered into the congressional records for all eternity.

I’ve been on the no fly list for a few years, but so far it hasn’t been a real hindrance, just a minor hassle..
FreedomOfInformationAct @ 9:
Wow! My claim to fame. My feeling is if you’re not willing even to sign a petition to address the lawlessness of Shrub and his criminal cabal , you’re part of the problem. This is not a personal criticism, so please don’t take it as such.
Just think, if our country’s founders were afraid to sigh the Declaration of Independence, we might all be spelling labor as ‘labour’.
McCain should get a fifty dollar fine.
I would like to serve an arrest warrant on this little pecker. So everyone in the country -32000 is ok with a law breaker running for the whitewash house? Freedom info@5— good one! as soon as I get my heart going again would you mind lending me a fresh pair of underwear? Damn ,forgot all about fools day.
I would have signed it if I thought it would have done any good. But if it takes a petition to see a federal agent to get off his ass and do his job, then what’s the point?
This explains why McTORTURE thinks himself presidential material…
Zenrage @ 14:
Thanks for your effort. You can go back to sleep now.
I’m even more convinced that America will once again have a Republican President.
Just can’t understand it really.
Sigh.

. . . for every minute he’s stayed in the campaign with his illegal money.
If I had known that the bigots and transphobes at Americablog were going to be involved, I might have reconsidered signing that petition. Although McCain is a hypocrite and needs to be called for it, it doesn’t rise to the occasion of associating myself with people barely more tolerant than the KKK. McCain is a republican hypocrite and so is Aravosis.
