Wow its to bad she decided to drop out. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/04/11/mitch-mcconnell-ethics-complaint_n_3062215.html Ethics complaint is a little strange.See how it plays out CREW's complaint seems to stem from a "mistake" in Mother Jones' original transcript of the audio. From their original story: Presenter: So I'll just preface my comments that this reflects the work of a lot of folks: Josh, Jesse, Phil Maxson, a lot of LAs, thank them three times, so this is a compilation of work, all the way through. What the tape actually says is this: Presenter: So I just preface my comments that this reflects the work of a lot of folks: Josh, Jesse, Phil Maxson, a lot of LAs, in their free time, so this is a compilation of work, all the way through. "Thank them three times" doesn't even make sense, really. The more plausible "in their free time" would clear the staffers of any alleged wrongdoing. CREW's complaint to the FBI is clearly a trumped up issue designed to generate negative headlines for McConnell. Its complaint said nothing about the potentially illegal recording of the campaign meeting. It will be interesting, however, to see how CREW handles the news that a prominent local Democrat official has fingered Progress Kentucky, a leftist advocacy group, as being behind the allegedly illegal recording of the McConnell meeting. Recording a conversation to which one is not a party and distributing it are serious crimes. Have to wait and see how this turns out. Quote Everything you do is based on the choices you make.

bonnie Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Kentucky Democrat Outed Progress KY To Authorities To ‘Protect The Democratic Party’ by Noah Rothman “The only reason that I came forward with what I knew was I was trying to protect the Democratic Party,” said Democratic Party official and a local county executive in Kentucky, Jacob Conway. Conway appeared on Fox News Channel with Megyn Kelly on Thursday where he admitted that he gave up the liberal group Progress KY To authorities when they confided in him that they had surreptitiously recorded Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) during a meeting with his campaign staff. The recording of that meeting was leaked to and published on the website for Mother Jones magazine. RELATED: Liberal PAC Attacks Sen. Mitch McConnell’s Asian Wife: ‘May Explain Why Your Job Moved To China!’ “I believe in our party’s values, and I was doing what I thought was best for the party because I did not want their bad behavior, their poor mistakes — I shouldn’t say ‘bad behavior’ — their mistakes, their lack of judgment to hurt our party’s efforts here in the state Kentucky and in Jefferson County, here in Louisville,” Conway told Kelly. Conway had first told the local public radio station WFPL that he had come forward to authorities just before joining Kelly on Fox. Jacob Conway, who is on the executive committee of the Jefferson County Democratic Party, says that day, Shawn Reilly and Curtis Morrison, who founded and volunteered for Progress Kentucky, respectively, bragged to him about how they recorded the meeting. Conway said that both Reilly and Morrison confided in Conway that they had overheard the “tasteless and offensive and tacky” things the McConnell campaign was discussing and they decided to record it. The progressive group made news in February when they tweeted a racially insensitive comment about former Labor Secretary and McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao.

Ted Oplinger Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Jacob Conway must not have gotten the Party memo. This is precisely the sort of things that the Democrat party values. They only scream about it when it is done to them. Doesn't he know doing it to a Republican is fair game???

To take the cross of Christ means to depend solely on Him for everything, and this is the abasement of all human pride. Men love to fancy themselves independent.

Ted Oplinger Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 But they want a better, less gaff-prone candidate than Ms. Judd. They are playing a very shrewd game here. Once they get their candidate, then the Mother Jones secret recordings are fair game.
