GOP Attack Group Freedom's Watch Falling Apart

Las Vegas Review Journal:

Freedom's Watch, the conservative group backed by Las Vegas Sands Corp. Chairman Sheldon Adelson, is pretty much kaput, sources with knowledge of the organization said.

The group's dozens of staffers have been paid through the end of the year. After that, Freedom's Watch is likely to shut its doors permanently, said the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

"She needs to understand that America is a right-of-center nation, all things considered, but not far right of center," Rogich said. "She needs to appeal to the broad masses." Right of center? Haha! That's rich. As for Sarah, I say stay the way you are. You wouldn't be Sarah Palin if you have to change yourself to win votes. :-)

My sides are aching - every time I look at that corpulent jerk's sour mug I start laughing all over again.

Shelly's monstrosities The Venetian and The Palazzo loom over the Vegas Strip...I refuse to set foot in either one of them.

LOL - I just spent another FREE weekend at The Ventian - my THIRD this year! I gambled my usual 20 bucks there, another 5 at the Palazzo and then headed for the Bellagio for a big (and expensive) family gathering!

Gotta love a hotel chain that is going under!

You go!!

Another voice from a dark Medieval cave goes down in the wake of Bush and Palin style politics after hitting an iceberg called modern, rational, educated and creative thought.

Funny how these GOP zealot groups always use "Freedom" as their theme... Freedom Watch... Let Freedom Ring USA... yet they have no clue what the meaning of "freedom" truly is.

The irony - a GOP billionaire done in by the very philosophy he purchased and forced upon the nation.

Justice served. It is right that the people who helped Bush and GOP failures ruin our economy should fail as well.

Good riddance to bad rubbish!

Ah yes, I remember the buzzard Ari.......­hope he's having some hard times too.

As for the Republican manufacturer of lies, watch him fall. Let them all fall, I really want to see them do without, so they can learn a little empathy with others. They NEED the experience, for the good of their eternal souls!!

Shelly, baby,

we can do this the easy way

or the Mo' Green way.

"As for the organization's future, Patru maintained it was yet to be decided by the board of directors, which includes former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer and Sands Corp. President Bill Weidner."
Hey, Ari should've run it past the Decider-in­-Chief.... you know, the same guy who ran you into the poorhouse.

You reap what you sow.

Freedom Watch may or may not be going under. The organization continues to buy ads in the Georgia US senate runoff race. Apparently, Sheldon Adelson pockets are still deep enough to smear Martin. Just this week they ran a despicable ad falsely alleging that Martin helped block stiffer penalties for drunk drivers and voted against tougher sentences for domestic abuse. Jim Martin can use your help. Donate today. http://www.martinforsenate.com/

I wonder if he has petitioned Bush for a few billion to bail him out. After all Gambling in something that is obviously necessary to keep America strong!

Oh, maybe he could sell off a few of his Likudist party newspapers that are delivered free in Israel.
