Has anyone ever shown a finacial connection between ANSWER and the GOP?
Sorry if this will offend anyone - I saw this posted on another site

http://www.myfoxhouston.com/myfox/pages/Home/Detail?contentId=5700252&version=1&locale=EN-US&layoutCode=VSTY&pageId=1.1.1

Shows some Obama staffers (or somebody...) entering their office with a big Cuban flag, Chae Gureva...etc...

Not exactly your typical Democratic office...!!! (I hope!)

I've long believed that there are elements of ANSWER that have sold out - and are mere election year tools of the GOP - has this ever benn documented???

The FOX story has the caveat:

The office featured in this video is funded by volunteers of the Barack Obama Campaign and is not an official headquarters for his campaign.

So - it would be painfully cheap to rent an office, get a few obama posters, a cuban flag - and stage this stunt...or am I just wearing too much tin foil???

1. Well, They Are Both Out Of Their Minds, Insane, Nonsensical, And Annoying.
But not too sure they're related all that much.

2. Of COURSE not -- the connexions b/t that kind of stuff and the RIGHT is ALL UNDERGROUND
I speak from over 30 years experience as an authentic leftist activist in the US.

Get it? You know -- 'you're all trims and we're all waiting????

Welcome to the wonderful world of the underground political machine of the USA and its built-in guaranteed catch 22s (nothing left to chance or authentic merit)
