EXPOSING THE "MAIN STREET" REPUBLICANS
By Michelle Malkin · November 28, 2005 12:12 PM
The "Main Street" Republicans, who I criticized earlier this month for sabotaging conservative House efforts to open up ANWR for drilling, have sent a letter accusing me of "libelous statements." I've uploaded the letter from Danielle Graham, counsel for the Republican Main Street Partnership, here. (As you'll see from the letter, it appears there are no spell checkers on "Main Street.")
This baseless legal threat is useful because it helps further illuminate the relationship between George Soros, the Republican Main Street Partnership, and the Main Street Individual Fund--as well as the Center for Responsive Politics, which runs the website "Open Secrets."
As you'll recall, I linked to the Open Secrets website on Nov. 10 after a reader pointed to a $50,000 donation listed there from George Soros to the Main Street Individual Fund, 2004 Election Cycle. Forgive me for spelling out the painfully obvious, but anyone who clicked on the link that I provided saw that I was pointing to the Soros donation to the Main Street Individual Fund, which funds "Main Street" moderate Republicans, as well as to the Center's statement connecting MSIF with the Republican Main Street Partnership:
Ms. Graham mistakenly believes that I asserted Soros gave the donation to the RMSP. Not true, but more on the connections in a moment.
In a not-so-open move, the Open Secrets website completely deleted the 2004 Soros donation from the entry sometime between Nov. 10 and Nov. 16, 2005...
Michelle's blog is always worth reading, but this post is especially worthwhile, for we must identify all the bad guys, regardless of what they call themselves.
