Talk:Center for Individual Freedom

message: I don't believe that the term think tank applies here, and have removed it. According to Wikipedia, "Usually this term refers specifically to organizations which support multi-disciplinary theorists and intellectuals who endeavor to produce analysis or policy recommendations."
The Center for Individual Freedom is an advocacy group. Their website has a reference to liberal screech monkeys and has a cartoon page.  It doesn't have a list of its member "multi-disciplinary theorists and intellectuals who endeavour to produce analysis or policy." As with, say, MoveOn.org, you are far more likely to get a mass e-mail from CfIF than a policy paper. - Biederman 20:44, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Should a line be added to clarify that the Paul Ryan citied in the article is different than current Speaker of the House Paul Ryan?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.185.48.110 (talk) 04:36, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Paul Ryan 

message: "The Center for Individual Freedom (CFIF) is an Alexandria, Virginia based U.S. nonprofit conservative policy advocacy organization, founded on the principle of securing individual freedoms as embodied in the United States Constitution and state constitutions"
Really? This is copy/pasted from their about page (http://cfif.org/v/about-cfif). There's a difference between saying in a Wikipedia article "an organization which describes itself as "blah blah blah" " and having a Wikipedia article directly describing an organization, with the words of the organization itself.
This entire article seems to have been written by someone from CFIF or someone advocating for the organization, to make it look like the group is the champion of the people. Absolutely no mention here about the organization's stance on the American healthcare system, their campaigns against net-neutrality, or anything that may paint CFIF negatively to a reader. The whole article needs to be rewritten with an unbiased and neutral point of view.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.102.148.130 (talk) 19:26, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

message: “It’s unclear who may have orchestrated the comments,” it wrote. “A line of the language used in the comment, specifically about the ‘unprecedented regulatory power [of] the Obama administration,’ has some resemblance to a 2010 press release from the Center for Individual Freedom, a conservative, anti-net neutrality group.”
