 Huffington Post isn’t done with Scott Brown.  A testimony to Scott Brown’s Palin-like appeal can be found in the pages of Huffington Post, which is now incorporating the same type of smear attacks on Brown and his family that they did on Palin and her family.  Witness just a few of their headlines found in google blog search:

Scott Brown’s Wife Music VIDEO: Gail Huff’s RACY ‘Girl With The …17 hours ago by The Huffington Post News Editors  
On Tuesday night, Scott Brown’s wife pleaded with her husband to stop advertising his “available” daughters, but a video we’ve dug up reveals that Gail Huff wasn’t always so prim and proper.

The link they show is to a music video Scott Brown’s wife was in.  She appeared, gasp, in a bikini and ‘took it off’ (no frontal nudity was shown).  It is always convenient when leftists suddenly find ‘morality’ and ‘decency’ to attack their political enemies, but it does not conceal their ‘by any means necessary’ tactic of using personal attacks to demonize and frighten their opponents.

Here, they show (and please, if you are a morally upright leftist,and what leftist isn’t, please look away, pictures of his daughter….

IN A BIKINI!  Gasp!

If Huffington Post ever wanted to be a credible news journal site, this reversion back to the politics of smear, demonize, isolate (the Alinsky model, which has now been completely discredited), they have lost that opportunity with these latest violations of true decency in news journalism, allowing their site to be, once again, dominated by little Goerings trying desperately to kill their opponent ‘by any means necessary’.  After all, the ends justify the means, as any good fascist would say.

Is this the death of Mccain-Feingold?  We believe that Mccain-Feingold, at leas the teeth of it, is dead, that the floodgates will now open up on the side that was hurt the most from this unconstitutional law, the conservatives, specifically the artificial limitations placed on non-profits to donate directly to candidates and parties of their choosing.  The ruling itself went beyond the issue of non-profits.  It encompassed even the corporate limitations that had been heretofore placed on their power to contribute directly to candidates and parties.

This ruling is both good and bad, good in the sense that the playing field will now be leveled.  Conservatives will now be able to compete with the billionaire progressives who pump untold millions into multiple hatchet organizations like moveon.org, the unions, and acorn.  Short term, this is good, as the left will now be brought out to light by the loyal opposition.  Long term, this raises the level of money that will go into campaigns, and risks making candidates beholden to…corporate campaign dollars.

All that’s left of Mccain Feingold is the provisions that require full disclosure.  What’s more, Mccain Feingold was going to be one of bedrocks the leftists were going to use to justify regulating bloggers online.  Now, that ship done sailed…

Here are a few excerpts from the blogosphere:

Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote the main opinion, which reads in part that there is “no basis for allowing the government to limit corporate independent expenditures.”

“There is no basis for the proposition that, in the political speech context, the government may impose restrictions on certain disfavored speakers,” he wrote. “The government may regulate corporate speech through disclaimer and disclosure requirements, but it may not suppress that speech altogether.”

Dissenters included Justices John Paul Stevens, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer and Sonia Sotomayor.

“The notion that the First Amendment dictated [today’s ruling] is, in my judgment, profoundly misguided,” Stevens wrote for the others.

“In the context of election to public office, the distinction between corporate and human speakers is significant. Although they make enormous contributions to our society, corporations are not actually members of it,” he added.

John Mccain’s reaction reveals his true progressive nature:
McCain, whose party leaders praised the court decision, wasn’t as tough as Feingold. “I am disappointed by the decision of the Supreme Court and the lifting of the limits on corporate and union contributions,” he said.

Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote for the majority, which included the other 4 more conservative judges on the Court. Justice John Paul Stevens wrote a 90-page dissent joined by the Court’s other 3 liberal justices.

The Court cited the First Amendment and an overbearing FEC as primary reasons for overturning the McCain-Feingold legislation.

The FEC’s “regulatory scheme may not be a prior restrain on speech in the strict sense of that term, for prospective speakers are not compelled by law to seek an advisory opinion from the FEC before the speech takes place,” Kennedy wrote. “As a practical matter, however, given the complex-ity of the regulations and the deference courts show toadministrative determinations, a speaker who wants toavoid threats of criminal liability and the heavy costs of defending against FEC enforcement must ask a govern-mental agency for prior permission to speak.”

“The FEC has created a regime that allows it to select what political speech is safe for public consumption by applying ambiguous tests. If parties want to avoid litigation and the possibility of civil and criminal penalties, theymust either refrain from speaking or ask the FEC to issue an advisory opinion approving of the political speech in question,” Kennedy continued. “Government officials pore over each word of a text to see if, in their judgment, it accords with the 11-factor test they have promulgated. This is an unprece-dented governmental intervention into the realm of speech.”

An Article in Politico, titled Latest tea party target: Its own convention, suggests that the tea party movement is falling apart, as evidenced by ‘its own’ turning on what is billed as its own convention.

We don’t quite read it like that, rather, we see the way the tea party people have rallied in opposition to one man, Judson Phillips, attempting to take over the tea party movement by flashing big dollars around as a sign that the tea party movement is coming together under clearly defined principles, that, above all else, they WILL NOT allow the movement of the people, for the people, by the people, to be co-opted by the so-called professionals, the political class that has locked THE PEOPLE out of the public square for long enough.  Here are some excerpts from the article:

Billed as a pivot point to transition the tea party movement from a chaotic uprising to an organized and sustainable political force and featuring Sarah Palin as its star attraction, the first-ever convention in Nashville from Feb. 6 to Feb. 8 is insead shaping up as a reminder of the problems inherent in holding together a fractious coalition of local groups resistant to authority and pursuing often-conflicting agendas.

Red State blogger Erick Erickson made it clear recently what he thinks of the coming event — pronouncing that it “smells scammy” and is inconsistent with the grass-roots energy behind the tea party movement.

“I’m hoping for the best, but I’m prepared for the worst — that it descends into infighting and that the passionate activists who attend end up leaving disenchanted,” he told POLITICO.

Erickson worries that by associating herself [Palin] with Phillips and the convention, Palin “might be ruining herself unintentionally……

After she was criticized for the fee, Palin told Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly that she “will not financially be gaining anything from this.” Instead, she suggested she would “turn it right back around and contribute to campaigns, candidates and issues.”

But the only way she could do that under federal election law would be to make maximum contributions of $2,400 to candidates, $5,000 to political action committees or $30,400 to national party committees (she could make larger contributions to independent 527 groups, but those are barred from directly supporting or opposing candidacies).

Update:  With the death of Mccain-Feingold, Palin may now easily contribute her fee to any individual or party she desires.
