an ad just ran by some group calling themselves Better Government Association during Morning Jerk. The ad was an anti health care reform ad, so you can imagine the content.
Here is a little more about this group. Typical thuglican politics.

So which is the better Better Government Association?
An independent, non-partisan political watchdog group formed in Chicago in 1923 does not want to be confused with a highly-partisan new group out of Akron, Ohio, also calling itself the Better Government Association.
The Akron-based group recently took out a full-page ad in USA Today claiming "Barack Obama ... and the Democrats did not inherit the bad economy; they caused it and made it worse ... They now want to bankrupt the nation with socialized medicine and socialism energy taxes."
The 86-year-old BGA has gotten calls and letters from people -- some angry -- who saw the ad, so the Chicago group is asking a federal court to prevent the Ohio group from any further activity which could cause such confusion.
The BGA filed a lawsuit in federal court in Chicago on Monday asking for a permanent injunction against the Ohio group.

So they take the name of an 86 year old respectable group and create havoc and run amok. So typical.
