ID-01: New TV Ad

Andrew Roth

The Club for Growth PAC will begin airing this TV ad tomorrow in Idaho's 1st district.


LIBERALS PELOSI AND RANGEL HIT THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL FOR THE CLUB FOR GROWTH PAC
Liberal Tax and Spend Democrats Featured in New Campaign Ad


WASHINGTON, DC - Opening a new front in the fall elections, liberal representatives Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Charles Rangel (D-NY) are featured prominently in a campaign advertisement funded by the political arm of the influential Club for Growth. Pelosi and Rangel would become Speaker of the House and Chairman of the tax-writing Ways and Means Committee respectively should Democrats win a majority in the House of Representatives. Rangel said recently that Democrats would raise taxes if he became Chairman.

"Take home pay, jobs and economic growth are on the ballot this November, and putting liberals in charge of the purse strings would threaten all of them. The liberal tax hike agenda is clear: no more $1,000 per child tax credit, raise tax rates across the board, bring the death tax back from the grave, and jack up the costs of investing. That's a recipe for economic disaster, and voters should think twice before giving them control," said Pat Toomey, President of the Club for Growth.

The advertisement will begin to air Saturday in Idaho's 1st Congressional district, where Republican Bill Sali is running against Democrat Larry Grant for the seat being vacated by Butch Otter, who is running for Governor. The ad is a 1,000 point media buy costing $168,000. The Club for Growth PAC has endorsed Mr. Sali in the race.

The Club for Growth PAC is considering running similar advertisements across the country.

Pork on TV

Andrew Roth

The Club for Growth PAC recently launched a TV ad campaign in Michigan's 7th district. The ad, which is critical of Congressman Joe Schwarz for wasting federal tax dollars on pork projects and his own pay raise, is playing district-wide across several avenues - broadcast and cable, along with a radio version as well.

Let's send Schwarz into an early retirement. Donate to Tim Walberg's campaign now and help him defeat Schwarz in the August 8th primary.

New TV Ad in Oklahoma

Andrew Roth

We noticed that Club for Growth State Action is running a new TV ad on Kevin Calvey (Check it out here or view it below). From the CFGSA website:

The pressures to raise taxes and spend more money are intense. Once in a while a lawmaker shows outstanding leadership in bucking the establishment and the special interests to protect the taxpayers who foot the bills. In such cases, we like to point that out and call on the public to tell him to keep up the good work. Not only does it reward such leadership, it gives incentives to other lawmakers who might be considering whether to side with the special interests or the citizens.

One such example of a lawmaker who has done outstanding work for his constituents is Kevin Calvey, a state representative in Oklahoma.

We congratulate Mr. Calvey on his fine work for Oklahoma taxpayers and hope that others will follow in his footsteps to keep standing up for what is right.

Club for Growth Release New TV Ad in Rhode Island

Andrew Roth

CLUB FOR GROWTH BEGINS NEW AD CAMPAIGN IN RHODE ISLAND

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Club for Growth announced a new ad campaign designed to educate Rhode Islanders about the real record of Sen. Lincoln Chafee and to increase the pressure on him to support pro-growth policies. The six-figure TV, radio, and cable buy begins today.

"We are not surprised that Sen. Lincoln Chafee has chosen to distort Steve Laffey's record of fiscal responsibility with his new TV ads," said Pat Toomey, President of the Club for Growth. "Our new ads will help correct the record so that Rhode Islanders will have the facts, not the Chafee distortions. We are not surprised that he hides his true record of favoring massive increases in taxes and spending. We call on Rhode Islanders to urge Sen. Chafee to stop the distortions and to end his fiscal hypocrisy."

Here is the script for the TV ad:

Would you buy a cheap watch from this guy? / Then don't buy a cheap attack from this guy. / The truth is Steve Laffey's lowering taxes and he's cut millions in spending and waste in Cranston. / Lincoln Chafee? / He voted for $1.3 trillion in higher taxes. / Higher income taxes and capital gains taxes. / Chafee's one of the Senate's biggest spenders. / He even backed $200 million for that "Bridge to Nowhere" in Alaska. / Tell Lincoln Chafee he's too liberal with your taxes.
