Reply #95: An OFFER: whatever the choicepoint connections are, CUT THEM off [View All]

and return the money. I will HELP raise the difference to your organization. Stay away from choicepoint, the good works of your organization do not deserve that, it's true.

But on the other hand, I will call a spade a spade. Stay with choicepoint in any way shape or form and you are risking the movement for EVERYONE. That, you've no right to do.

So, why not end this with an apology to Greg Palast for anything said, returning the choicepoint money or spousal money with full disclosure of what happened, and cutting off all choicepoint ties (as defined by choicepoint critics). In exchange, to help assuage that loss I'll help you raise a reasonable amount of money for VTUSA to partially or totally offset any financial losses from returning contributions.

Note that I am not asking for an apology to me, but one to Greg Palast (which i've no authority to suggest is binding i'm not his attorney and haven't talked to him about it). My offer will cost me time and money in helping you raise funds.

That being said: I personally won't tolerate Choicepoint or choicepoint tolerators. Period. There's room for all kinds of stripes under the democracy tent but not anti-democracy or "private KGB" stripes) But I will raise some money in small contributions from other folks for you (plus my modest contribution, if you'd take it, but you'd not be obliged to).
