Left Wing Big Money Schemes to Pack a Powerful DC Court

Posted by Tina

The Washington Free Beacon posted a bombshell story today that exposes left-wing hypocrisy in targeting Tea Party and conservative 501c4 applications and demonstrates once more the underhanded methods the left uses to gain and retain power and manipulate the courts. This goes beyond finding a loop hole to actually blowing a hole in the judicial political process and makes their complaints about corporate donations laughable. The Free Beacon has obtained documents that prove a “shadowy network of wealthy liberal donors bankrolled an operation to pack one of America’s most powerful courts with progressive judges:

During a fundraising presentation at the Democracy Alliance’s meeting in Chicago this spring, the American Constitution Society boasted about meeting its “performance goals,” which included helping to secure the Senate filibuster reform that paved the way for reshaping the D.C. circuit court.

The group said it “advanced filibuster reform” by “highlighting [the] issue in national media” and “successfully leveraging attention to create outcry for confirmation of long-stalled D.C. circuit nominees,” according to its presentation.

The ACS also said it drafted and supplied materials that were used by Senate Democrats to advance the rule change.

Experts argued these activities appeared to cross the line from education to lobbying.

“It bills itself as a tax-exempt educational organization, but obviously the American Constitution Society is engaging in policy-making activities,” said Daniel Epstein, the executive director of Cause of Action and an expert at the conservative Federalist Society. “They created the intellectual arsenal behind filibuster reform.”

If you can handle the heartburn, the full article is worth your time to stay informed. The end always justifies the means with this unethical amoral bunch!

    Here’s more info. on massive amounts coming from liberals to support Democrat causes and agendas.

    Exclusive – Report: Five Liberal Megadonor ‘Soros Clones’ the Media Has Ignored-

    “Hardly a day goes by without the media raising questions about the influence of powerful GOP megadonors, but five liberal billionaires have been pouring money into politics in recent years with nary a peep from the Fourth Estate, according to new report from the Media Research Center’s Business and Media Institute and provided exclusively to Breitbart News.

    These five left-wing donors have contributed at least $2.7 billion since 2000 “to groups pushing abortion, gun control, climate change alarmism, and liberal candidates,” the report found. But perhaps in part because the group owns a combined 88 media outlets, they have generally benefited from acclaim from the media, who described them as “giving back” to their communities.

    The report studied five “clones” of famous liberal donor George Soros: former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Berkshire Hathaway’s Warren Buffett, eBay founder Pierre Omidyar, hedge fund manager Tom Steyer, and Soros’ own son Jonathan Soros.”

    I wonder how many of the rank and file democrat voters have have any idea how connected their votes are to big corporation…wall street…those rotten 1%er billionaires?

    The only way to get big money out of politics is to shrink the size and scope of the federal government and give more power back to individual citizens.

    Democrats are such hypocrites:

    Obama Donors Embrace Corporate Inversions as He Slams Deals

    “I am in this race to tell the corporate lobbyists that their days of setting the agenda in Washington are over. I have done more than any other candidate in this race to take on lobbyists — and won. They have not funded my campaign, they will not run my White House, and they will not drown out the voices of the American people when I am president.” – Barack Obama, Speech in Des Moines, IA November 10, 2007

    Politico:

    Barack Obama promised to take on Washington’s revolving door culture.

    Washington won.

    A POLITICO review shows that the Obama administration has hired about 70 previously registered corporate, trade association and for-hire lobbyists. And many of these former lobbyists work at the highest levels of government.

    What group hasn’t thrown big money at the Obama administration?

    Maybe the Tea Party 🙂

    This manipulation of the DC court is another example of the desperate means democrats use because if they told people what they were up to they would never win. Imagine:

    We’re going to take over control of one sixth of the American economy, health insurance, but it will cost many of you your doctors and hospitals and I’m sorry but premiums and deductibles will have to go up, for some people WAY UP. We will add thousands and thousands of costly new regulations and add a number of taxes too. Won’t that be fun?
