The Phisher King, Tyler Vogt, spamming Tucsonans with ‘Swift Boat’ ad

Posted by AzBlueMeanie:

"It's Tool Time!" The Phisher King, Tea-Publican troll Tyler Vogt, is still spamming Tucsonans, this time with a "Swift Boat" attack ad on his opponent, Shirley Scott.

The same right-wing consulting firm that swift-boated John Kerry in 2004 is trying to do the same to Democratic City Council candidates in an effort to seize control of the City Council for the Tea Party.

The Beltway firm Stevens, Reed Curcio and Potholm crafted the "Swift Boat" ads in 2004, slandering John Kerry's service in Vietnam with specious claims and unfounded accusations, is doing the ads for Tea-Publican mayor and council candidates. Even President Bush criticized the ads saying "I think they’re bad for the system." Bush calls for halt to Swift Boat ads – msnbc.com.

This is the same firm responsible for the attack ad against Harold Ford, Jr. that his GOP opponent, Bob Corker, demanded be pulled from the air because it was "distasteful," and that even some Republicans denounced as racist. Tennessee ad ignites GOP squabbling -msnbc.com. Bill Cohen, a former Republican senator from Maine, criticized the ad in an interview on CNN as “a very serious appeal to a racist sentiment.”

This firm is bottom-feeding sewer dwellers. Which speaks volumes to the character of the politicians who hire them. This shoud be a disqualification from serving in elective office.

Vogt's attack ad suggests that Shirley Scott is under "a fraud investigation." No, that would be the Rio Nuevo District Board, which is under the control of state of Maricopa Republicans, as detailed by the Arizona Daily Star. The GOP 'troika' behind Rio Nuevo. Some of whom likely contributed to pay for this attack ad, which we will discover only when the Arizona Republican Party stops violating campaign finance disclosure laws. Is the Arizona GOP illegally 'earmarking' funds for Tucson City Council elections?

Vogt's attack ad also claims he wil create jobs. What experience does this Tea-Publican troll have in creating jobs? He works for Raytheon where, as we learned from Tea-Publican congressional candidate Ruth McClung in 2010, anyone can call him or herself a "rocket scientist." Is Raytheon going to hire everyone who needs a job? I don't think so. Rocket Man is making claims he can't back up.
