in Socialists take different approach to ballot access on The Iowa Independent
What do we have here? It sure as heck looks like a liberal front group called the "Iowa Independent."

Go to the Iowa Secretary of States website and see what you find.

When you do a search for "Iowa Independent" and think you might get a business, corporation, or non-profit -- guess what you get?

You get a registered trademark.

"Iowa Independent" is merely a registered trademark of a liberal non-profit group based in Washington, D.C.

The same group that is funded by the likes of SEIU and Tim Gill.

That kind of looks like "Iowa Independent" is the group that is really operating in the shadows.

Digging through much of what is written here -- and where the funding for this group comes from -- makes it pretty ripe for a complaint with the IRS and the Iowa Ethics and Campaign Disclosure Board.

Does "Iowa Independent" even maintain a bank account? Do they have a board? Who makes their editorial decisions? How much money is disbursed to them from SEIU's DC-supported charity? What does that group tell them to write or do?
