Therefore, it is perfectly legitimate to complain that these ads are being paid for by a "shadowy group" that won't disclose it donors and which is run by a Republican consultant.  That's that.  No need for a new law that infringes on privacy and allows vengeful politicians opportunities to retaliate.

Both the message and the messenger should be debated in a free and open democratic society.

This is a good example of how "disclosure" would divert attention from the message to the messenger. Rather than debate the ad, DeFazio want to debate the group.  Jim Bopp
