Brady Campaign

Related to my post on Brady Campaign's collapsing finances, Bitter at Shall Not Be Questioned points out that Dennis Henigan has left Brady Campaign. I'd add that in previous IRS Form 990s Sarah Brady was listed in the top five staffers receiving salaries, and she now has vanished, either going unpaid or at least with greatly reduced salary. Between those moves and borrowing a quarter of its budget, it has all the marks of an organization on the verge of going under.

Bitter also notes that it's strange the way Henigan has been "airbrushed" off the Brady homepage. I find it strange that the guy who really put the organization on the map -- "Pete" Shields -- has gotten the same treatment, given scant mention in its material. Way back, 30+years ago, I debated Pete. He took them from a tiny organization into a fairly big one, recruited the Bradys, handed it over to them, and today is barely acknowledged. A personal beef -- we may have been on different sides, but I found him rather likable.
