Double Standard

It looks as if Ken Salazar is taking a play from Senator Kerry’s playbook.
U.S. Senate candidate Ken Salazar challenged his opponent, Pete Coors, to have the “guts” to stand up to a secretly funded political group that launched a television attack ad targeting the state attorney general Tuesday.
In an attempt to stifle free speech, Salazar has attacked the Coors camp over a 527 advertisement that criticizes Salazar’s handling of the Summitville mine. Mr. Salazar, my question to you is: Will you condemn Moveon.org, as well as Michael Moore, for their ad hominem attacks against George Bush? Will you ask Teresa Hines Kerry to withdraw her financial support of Democrat shadow groups? Or, will you, in the tradition of John Kerry, send a delegation to the brewery demanding that Coors denounce the ads?
