Keyes needs dough, sells videos

Alan Keyes is back, and he’s begging for money. (From an e-mail)

Dear friend of Alan Keyes:

We are pleased to announce the launch of KeyesMediaCentral.com This site is designed to provide our fellow Declarationists with Alan Keyes media products and right-thinking conservative resources, while financially benefiting Ambassador Keyes’ ongoing public work. The site is non-commercial - all products are offered as premiums available for minimum suggested, non-deductible donations.

The first project to benefit from your donations at this site will be Keyes 2004, the Keyes for U.S. Senate campaign, to assist in our debt reduction efforts. As you may know, the Keyes campaign raised all its own money for a last-minute grassroots challenge against the otherwise unopposed leftist Barack Obama. Alan received only the nominal mandated Senate Committee financial commitment from the national GOP, and no support whatever from the state GOP. Thanks to loyal supporters like you, a credible challenge was mounted on short notice and a tight budget - but some debt remains.

If you go to his new website, you’ll see that he’s trying to raise money by selling copies of the US Senate debate for 20 bucks a pop.

Could this be legal? Just wondering.

The Keyes folks are also about to launch a new website called Illinois United. Yes, we are united here in Illinois. We proved that last year when we gave that hypocritical hothead an almost unanimous bum’s rush.

  2. It’s legal assuming he’s doing it legally–which is a big assumption. Wingnuts love to do this kind of fundraiser–Bill Federer does it all the time with ‘his’ book–you know, the one other people largely wrote and sued him over.

    BTW, I wrote a similar post, but hadn’t seen this yet.

  3. You just have to remember this. Under the New World Order, Right Wingers are allowed, nay sanctioned, to lie, cheat, steal, plagiarize, propagandize, etc. Why? Because they are Divinely Ordained to…
