Looks like C4L needs a Public Relations expert. Anybody here want the job?

I'm just curious, do the people at CFL are aware of this new invention called the "internet"?

...information superhighway..

They do, but they only know how to use it when they want money. Maybe they're trying to figure out how to turn the announcement into a fund raising letter.

Ha!!

LLS, I was thinking the same thing! I just didn't want to say anything here because people are so fired up and PO'ed already.... But I really *can* imagine getting some sort of emailed statement along the lines of:

"Innocent mistakes were made, blah blah blah... now we are under vicious attack by outsiders who hate our cause. Don't let this happen! Please donate generously because we are privately funded and we need money to defend our good name!"

Ooooohhh.... Let's wait and see!

HILARIOUS! I can so see that, too!

Christ, the more I think about it, the more I can see that happening. Kind of reminds me of that, "They're turning their guns on me, please send money now!" email that Ron supposedly wrote a few weeks ago for his congressional campaign.

What gets to me the most about all this, is that of all the small little changes I requested to CFL like adding a "remember me" checkbox, updating the store with more choices, etc. and their typical response was they only have limited resources/funds. Ugh.

Even though this is quite a serious matter, some of the posts have been good for a laugh.

Well, it costs money to pay the salaries of the super competent top level staff.

I don't remember the poster, but someone said that "this is what happens when they stop depending on our donations and begin looking for alternative means for acquiring money."

Looks like we are experiencing growing pains.

Not to mention Adam DeAngelis and the rest of the failed campaign leeches.

I was trying NOT to mention.

but you are familiar with the Michigan "campaign".

I was hopeful of C4L when it started,
I am unimpressed.

Back when I lived in Mich, I did a lot of campaigning with him. I even introduced him to RP and his staff and told them how great of a computer guy he is. Then he eventually made it on the team and ever since I saw him at the R4R, not a word from him. So, I can see where you're coming from.

Straight from C4L website.

The Campaign for Liberty is a 501(c)(4) non-profit organization. A "501(c)(4)" is an organization not organized for profit and operated "exclusively for the promotion of social welfare." It is essentially a tax designation. There are many different tax categories for political organizations, each with its own pros and cons. In our case, the pros include having no limit on the amount that individuals may donate, while cons include a restriction from endorsing political candidates. Those who would like to donate to an organization that can support political candidates should donate to a Poltical Action Committee (PAC) such as the Liberty PAC. Donations to 501(c)(4)'s are NOT tax deductible.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, too.
