Friendly Fire January 9, 2012 9:40 am ER

You know a philosophy is corrupt and self-serving not when it attacks its opponents’ principles, but when it is ready to attack its own.

The Anti-Romney video, supposedly prepared by the pro-Gingrich Adelson superpac, uses tactics and sentiments worthy of Mother Jones or Michael Moore.

The movie was made by Jason Killian Meath, a former associate in the firm of Stu Stevens, Romney’s longtime chief ad man. Meath worked on ads for Romney’s campaign in 2008.
As first reported Friday night by Peter Boyer of The Daily Beast, the movie was commissioned by Barry Bennett, a conservative activist who heads Alliance for America’s Future, a group whose principals include Mary Cheney, a daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, and which does not disclose its donors.
…
For the first time, this film will show what Bain Capital actually did, said Rick Tyler, a senior adviser to Winning Our Future, a pro-Gingrich super PAC that acquired the rights to the movie on Friday. The super PAC is posting a two-minute trailer from the 27-minute film on a website Saturday.

“They targeted companies … they raided them … and thousands of workers lost their jobs. This is not capitalism.” said Rick Tyler, a senior adviser to Winning Our Future, a pro-Gingrich super PAC that acquired the rights to the movie on Friday.This is predatory,”.
