Is American Future Fund saying that prosecuting these Wall Street guys jives with the principles of a free market? |

Date: May 16th, 2012 11:34 AM Author: lavender selfie casino The American Future Fund, a conservative organization based in Iowa, has been one of the more active players in this fall’s campaigns, spending millions of dollars on ads attacking Democrats across the country. It has not hesitated to take credit for its attacks, issuing press releases with headlines like “AFF Launches TV Ads in 13 States Targeting Liberal Politicians.”
Like many of the other groups with anodyne names engaged in the battle to control Congress, it does not have to identify its donors, keeping them — and their possible motivations — shrouded from the public.
But interviews found that the group was started with seed money from at least one influential Iowa businessman: Bruce Rastetter, a co-founder and the chief executive of one of the nation’s larger ethanol companies, Hawkeye Energy Holdings, and a rising force in state Republican politics. And hints of a possible agenda emerge from a look at the politicians on the American Future Fund’s hit list. Most have seats on a handful of legislative committees with a direct say in the ethanol industry. [...] Mr. Rastetter began his corn-based ethanol company, Hawkeye, in 2003, after making his fortune with a pork production company, Heartland Pork. Hawkeye quickly became one of the nation’s largest ethanol producers, and Mr. Rastetter became an outspoken advocate for ethanol, helping to start a new trade group, Growth Energy, that supports its increased use at fuel pumps and tariffs on foreign producers. As his stature grew, so did his position as a Republican donor, and potentially as a candidate himself. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/12/us/politics/12donate.html?_r=2&pagewanted=print |

as an aside, i believe ethanol has potential. however, corn is like the worst way to make it and it sucks that subsidies have made corn the dominant ethanol source in this country. |

this is a terrible ad considering the GOP criticizes the Obama for "attacking" Wall Street and the 1% |
|
Date: May 16th, 2012 11:22 AM Author: hot spectacular address hissy fit I think it's a great attack on Obama, but I agree that how it relates to any apparent existing Republican strategy is unclear. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1949860&forum_id=2#20702558) |

Date: May 16th, 2012 11:23 AM Author: startled lodge sound barrier that ad might be good for the defensive purpose of warding off Obama's attacks on Bain. it is hard for a guy with a net worth of $10 million, surrounded by Wall Streeters, with $1 million in a JP Morgan account, to posture himself as the little guy taking on Wall Street.
