http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2010/08/17/MNUS1EUNTU.DTLRepublican backers of GOP gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman, who remains in a dead heat with Democrat Jerry Brown after putting $104 million of her own money into her campaign, aim to break the political logjam this week with a new statewide ad that takes on Brown as a failed politician.
The Sacramento-based Small Business Action Committee, which is paying for the 30-second anti-Brown spot, received a $10,000 check from Whitman this year, while one of its directors has backed "birther" campaigns and the impeachment of President Obama....
One of the group's organizers is its legal counsel and director James Lacy, a Southern California attorney who was a founder of the United States Justice Foundation, which has filed lawsuits challenging President Obama's U.S. citizenship and has defended the Minutemen, the militant group opposed to illegal immigrants in the United States.
Lacy, reached by The Chronicle, said he didn't know about Whitman's check to the small-business group and referred funding questions to a Sacramento consulting firm.Funny how they bury that last part waaaaaaaaay down at the bottom...
