Does anyone on DU know about "American Advance, Inc"?

This group is running misleading anti-NEA/anti-AFT (teachers unions) ads non-stop on central Iowa teevee. I can't find any information about AAI online.

Possibly a Dr. Evil Rick Berman op. He has several front groups against Teachers' Unions, like 'AFT Facts' and 'Teachers Union Exposed':

I'd also note that the John Birch society has been attacking the NEA for decades, claiming it's a communist front org.
