Brain -> BREAKING: Republican campaign committee orchestrated Wisconsin HCR repeal lawsuit | Crooks and Liars (4/28/2010 11:37:09 AM)

They'll insist all of this is "grassroots" and that "the American people" are against the legislation, blah, blah. If the teabaggers were genuine, they would be up in arms over this sort of thing but I think we all know they will not raise a peep - more likely is that they will try to deflect and change the subject.
BREAKING: Republican campaign committee orchestrated Wisconsin HCR repeal lawsuit | Crooks and Liars
It's bad enough to have states spending taxpayers' money on a frivolous effort to repeal health care reform, but it's mind-blowing to see how deep the Republican party's involvement was in those lawsuits.
One Wisconsin Now has released an email (PDF) it obtained showing a direct line between the Wisconsin Attorney General's office and the Republican State Leadership Committee (RSLC).
From their press release:
The emails One Wisconsin Now obtained indicate [Wisconsin Dep. AG] Taffora had contacted [RSLC Political Director] Cannatti looking for lawsuit information. Cannatti's response, which was sent at 9:09 the morning immediately following passage of the health reform bill, suggested Taffora talk to Bryan Stirling, the Deputy Attorney General of South Carolina, who Cannatti said was "coordinating efforts" between the Republican Attorneys General filing the lawsuit.
