Treasury Department Campaigns For Bush

Courtesy of Pandagon, the Treasury Department is breaking all kinds of campaign finance law by sticking this friendly note at the bottom of several recent press releases:

America has a choice: It can continue to grow the economy and create new jobs as the President's policies are doing; or it can raise taxes on American families and small businesses, hurting economic recovery and future job creation.


Here's an example:

That message is lifted word-for-word from a Republican campaign press release.

So I guess the gajillion dollars the Bush campaign has raised isn't enough -- now they're using tax dollars and government resources. Swell.

Unbelievable! I guess that once the White House figured it could get by using the White House press secretary to address campaign matters, the sky is the limit...
