Ad Watch: Who Is Behind The Calvey Ads?

It is clear that the ads currently running for Kevin Calvey are not being paid for by his campaign. The question is who is paying for them?

The ad’s disclaimer reads “Paid for by Club for Growth State Action” leading one to assume that it is the national Club for Growth organization behind the commercials. However, Club for Growth’s David Keating said the state action club is part of an “umbrella group” for a handful of state affiliates of the Club for Growth. However, Oklahoma is “not listed among the few states that have affiliates.” Keating explained that Club for Growth State Action was “lobbying-type organization” with its own board of directors, office and a different tax status than CFG (Casteel, Daily Oklahoman, 6/24).

The Oklahoma Political News Service will continue to investigate.

How many times have you heard, Losing more than 1 to 2 pounds a week is unsafe. Or You should never skip breakfast. That messes up your metabolism. or Look how those French people eat. That plate is tiny. That’ can’t be enough. Medicines and supplements can enhance your weight loss. These are some of the myths people say to me and my patients when they embark on the rapid weight loss plans I place them on for fast, healthy weight release. As you can imagine, this is not going to be an easy phase to go through due to the low range of food choices.
