OFA Asks Supporters to Write a “Letter to the Editor” Praising Federal Worker Pay Freeze
OFA, the organizing arm of the DNC, originally began its life as an organization trying to get someone elected on the platform of hope, change, and progressive policies. You had a public option in health care, cap and trade, a more progressive tax system, diplomacy abroad, and a belief in American values of equality and opportunity.http://news.firedoglake.com/2010/11/30/ofa-tries-to-get-supporters-to-write-letters-to-the-editor-praising-a-federal-worker-pay-freeze/

I like the idea of working together and letter writing to set the record straight, but I only wish it were for single payer, ending the war, or extending unemployment benefits. The working class have tightened their belts for several years to pay for the wealthy's tax cuts... Time to level the load....

5. Really? I am an OFA member and I did not receive any such request.

I refuse to add any hits to PUMA Jane Hamsher's Obama-bashing website, so I'll leave it at that.

None of my OFA group members have received any such requests, either.
