Anti-Edwards Ad in AIM Buddy List
"WARNING: John Edwards can be hazardous to your health." Its been there most of the day. Basic anti personal injury lawyer bullshit. Its really annoying because it has a voice over too. So the question is who or what is The November Fund?

1. The Truth About the November Fund

The Truth About the November Fund

<http://www.atla.org/focus/041011.aspx>

"The November Fund, organized by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce,
is a front group for the pharmaceutical industry, which is
leading the campaign to keep America's seniors from getting
low cost prescription drugs from Canada, and for other corporate
special interests, including the tobacco and insurance industries."

"Who leads the November Fund?

Bill Brock and Craig Fuller: The very same political hatchet men who
organized big tobacco's deceptive campaigns to hook America's kids
and Richard Nixon's dirty tricks during Watergate are orchestrating
this shadow group."
