Bush wants to sue over ads from outside groups
LAS CRUCES, N.M. — President Bush wants to work with Republican Sen. John McCain to pursue court action against political ads by “shadowy” outside groups, the White House said Thursday amid growing pressure on the president to denounce attacks on John Kerry’s war record.
“The president said if the court action doesn’t work, that he would be willing to pursue legislative action with Sen. McCain on that,” Bush spokesman Scott McClellan told reporters aboard Air Force One en route to New Mexico.
I don’t see this as being bad. For all we know, this may be the foot in the door to repeal McCain-Feingold. Frankly if I were Bush, that’s what I’d be telling McCain — “You got us into this mess, now you can by-God get us out.”
K-Lo, though, says “Oy”.
