Title: ABC Sports slapping Pawlenty campaign with cease and desist letter
Post by: 240 is Back on July 21, 2011, 07:56:56 PM: StarTribune.com ^ | 7/21/11 | Jeremy Herb

Former Gov. Tim Pawlenty’s new “Miracle on Ice” ad is reportedly being hit with a cease and desist letter for using footage from the 1980 U.S. Olympic Hockey team. The Des Moines Register is reporting that ABC Sports is preparing a cease and desist letter for improperly using the hockey footage in its political ad. "It's a violation of our copyright and exclusive proprietary rights," said Louise Argianas, director of rights and clearances for ABC Sports, told the Iowa paper. She said ABC Sports retains exclusive rights in the U.S. for the footage.

Guess what... his job is Huck 2008. Remember when Huck was OUT of the race, but stayed in to pull votes from Romney and to suck up to mccain? Huck was running for veep.

This time, TPaw is running for veep. He's pretending he is a far-right voice. He knows smart money is still on mitt to win, and he wants to the vanilla version of tea party credentials with voters in the general election. He has no money and no polling numbers - BUT - he does pull some votes from bachmann and is the only repub attacking her. T-Paw's role is to trash bachmann and pray mitt chooses him as veep.
