This just out from "The Republican Majority Campaign"/Newsmax
Edited on Fri Sep-12-08 08:24 PM by Waiting For Everyman
I'm not sure, but I think I got this load of hogwash from checking out a dubious-looking poll site recently, which I got to from a link somehow. Thought you might be interested as an insight into the other side's pitches right now, it's "hot off the press", just came in.
___________________________________________________________________

Dear Newsmax Reader:

The McCain campaign is out with a new ad exposing the vicious Democratic attacks to "destroy" his running mate Sarah Palin.

You can help John McCain and Sarah Palin by reading the urgent letter from our sponsoring advertiser, the Republican Majority Campaign.

They are leading a national campaign to defend Sarah and expose Barack Obama. Read their important letter today!

Newsmax.com


They will do anything to destroy Sarah Palin.

They will do anything to elect Obama President
— the most leftwing candidate in history.

Only you can stop them.



Dear Fellow American:

As I write this letter, the far Left — the Obama campaign, the Democratic Party headed by Howard Dean and the major (liberal) media—are all working in overdrive to destroy and smear Sarah Palin.

They believe if they can destroy this courageous young woman and popular governor, they will end John McCain’s bid for president.

Just this week, commentator Bill Maher ridiculed Sarah’s baby son who has Down's syndrome. These people are absolutely despicable.

They have one goal: Put Barack Obama — the most radical left-winger ever nominated by the Democratic Party — in the Oval Office.


Because of this, I am urgently writing you on behalf of the Republican Majority Campaign PAC, one of the nation’s largest and most influential PACs.

We are fighting to expose Barack Obama’s radical agenda and defend Sarah Palin and John McCain from the liberal media.

We have plans to launch a multi-million dollar TV and online ad campaign to reach millions in the next two weeks, but we need your financial help.

We need it more than ever because Barack Obama will likely spend more money than any candidate in history to get control of the White House.

Make no mistake about it: Barack Obama has very powerful backers.

Obama promised he would abide by campaign finance limits, as John McCain has agreed to.

He lied. This week alone, Obama raised $8 million! He could easily spend $500 million during his whole campaign to buy the White House.

Worse, John McCain and Sarah Palin have their hands tied with public financing limits.

That’s why the Republican Majority Campaign needs your urgent help in our major national TV ad campaign to help John McCain and Sarah Palin.

PLEASE HELP EXPOSE THE REAL OBAMA TODAY! CLICK HERE

The Republican Majority Campaign PAC is one of the nation’s leading PACs.

Already the Republican Majority Campaign PAC has spent $2 million on grass-roots efforts exposing Obama, voter by voter.

But it’s clear we need to do more and urgently.

We need to tell the American people the truth about Obama, his agenda and his radical associates.

In our national campaign we’ll reveal the truth about Obama’s radical tax agenda, including:

his plan to almost double capital gains tax

his plan to let the Bush tax cuts expire

his plan to raise gasoline taxes

his plan to nationalize healthcare

MAKE YOUR MOST GENEROUS DONATION TODAY!

We will also reveal the sordid truth about Barack Obama:

How for 20 years he sat silently as his minister, the radical preacher
Jeremiah Wright, said he hated America — the same preacher who
blamed the 9/11 attacks on OUR OWN GOVERNMENT.

The involvement of convicted felon Tony Resko in the purchase of Obama's$1,300,000 home.

His despicable association with his friend William Ayers, who was on the FBI’s Most Wanted list for over 10 terrorist attacks.

The fact that at age 25, Obama was backed by a radical Muslim activist close to the Saudi royal family when he applied to Harvard Law School.

HELP US REVEAL THE FACTS ABOUT OBAMA! CLICK HERE

The Ayers Connection

William Charles Ayers and Barack Obama have been friends for decades.

There is clear evidence that their lives and dealings have been intertwined for many years.

We have reason to believe that Obama and Ayers were friends way back in 1986.

They even served together in 1995 on the Annenberg Challenge, overseeing the distribution of about $50 million to area schools.

That same year, Ayers hosted Obama in his own home and donated to his campaign.

What does the association between Ayers and Obama say about Obama’s political views and perspective?

Ayers was an anti-American, traitorous radical who will stop at nothing to push his hateful communist agenda.

In the 1960s and 70s, he was a leader in the notorious underground terrorist group, the “Weathermen.”

The Weathermen declared war on the United States government and they bombed over 30 establishments (leading to multiple fatalities, including police officers).

Obama's friend Bill Ayers



“Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars
and apartments. Bring the revolution home,
kill your parents, that’s where it’s really at.”
William Ayers

Ayers is unapologetic about his terrorist activities.

Incredibly, on Sept. 11, 2001, Ayers is quoted by The New York Times as saying, “I don’t regret setting bombs … I feel we didn’t do enough.”

How could a man like Obama associate with such a dangerous radical? And even defend him?

And now Obama, Ayers friend, could be sitting in the White House next year — unless we tell the American people the unvarnished truth about them!

MAKE YOUR MOST GENEROUS DONATION TODAY!

We Must Defend Sarah Palin and John McCain.

The major media have already decided who their candidate is: MSNBC host Chris Matthews says Barack Obama makes a “thrill” go up his leg when he hears him speak.

Oprah has picked your next president.

But you can stop Chris Matthews, Oprah and the rest of the liberal media.

You can say we the American people will pick our president.

Your voice can be heard — we need your urgent help with the Republican Majority Campaign PAC.

Your maximum possible gift of $5,000 would help us enormously.

Even smaller donations are going to help.

Anything you can do will give us the ammunition we need to fight for John McCain and Sarah Palin.

Any amount — $1000, $500, $250, or even $100 will help show the truth before the November Presidential election.

Even if you can only afford $35 or $25 — we need your help and we need it now.

We must act quickly. We want to have our first ads up reaching millions in the next two weeks. Ronald Reagan once said, “If not us, who? If not now, when?

I will let you answer his questions today.

Thank you, and God bless America!

You Can Make a Difference — Go Here Now!

5. That was my first impulse too, but I'm wondering
if it might be worth keeping, to see where they're at? Dunno though, if it's worth it.

I'm thinking of maybe writing to those they put down, like Oprah and Matthews there, to bolster them up?

6. I find it both interesting and disturbing that
they find it very easy to tag Obama as "radical"... think that's connected to his heritage?

I don't think they'd be as successful in sticking that to John Kerry, white guy. I think this is a racist appeal.

8. Dude. Your name is Gary Kreep????
Wow, so much horseshit in one mail. I notice, as in ALL Republican statements made in this campaign and every other one since Reagan, that there isn't one SMIDGEN of reason why I should vote FOR McCain/Failin'. It's all about why I SHOULDN'T vote for Obama.

Ever notice another thing about these diatribes? Despite being the party that's been in power for most of the past 40 years, despite being the party that's backed by bottomless corporate pockets and lauded by the corporate media . . . despite ALL of this, Republicans keep steadfastly asserting that THEY'RE the VICTIMS here. Just remember that, because if you don't, we're going to shout it to the mountaintops: WE'RE the VICTIMS and our struggle continues!!!!

Dicks.

Where to begin?

— the most leftwing candidate in history.

Funny how that works . . . we always seem to get the most LEFT-WING candidates IN HISTORY. ALWAYS. :eyes:

the major (liberal) media

The "liberal media" is owned by six large corporations, not ONE of them piloted by a Democrat. One station is blatantly right wing and run by a Reaganite. So go shovel that bullshit to the low-IQ set, stupid.

are all working in overdrive to destroy and smear Sarah Palin.

Er, no . . . all she really has to do is talk. BAM. Work done for us.

this courageous young woman and popular governor

Popular in a state with a population less than that of Columbus Ohio? Yes, such a courageous woman who kills animals for apparel and wall decoration.

We are fighting to expose Barack Obama’s radical agenda and defend Sarah Palin and John McCain from the liberal media.

Yes, helping the less fortunate of our society while taxing those who are long overdue to be taxed and who least need MORE money = RADICAL!!! Wasting money we don't have to bomb the shit out of sovereign nations that didn't threaten one American citizen and to bail out corporations and fatcats = "Responsible Governing". And there IS NO LIBERAL MEd . . . oh, fuck it, I could shout it until I'm blue in the face and you'll just have your thumbs up your asses, so why bother?

his plan to almost double capital gains tax

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2008/aug/04/return-tax-attack-chain-e-mail/

AAaaaaand, unless you're a financial baron, the widespread effects of this increase are patently exaggerated. They make it sound like this increase is going to affect more than 50% of the American population. A majority of working Americans invest through 401k and IRA plans, which are exempt from Capital Gains and Dividends taxes. Stupid.

his plan to let the Bush tax cuts expire

I don't know what's worse - that this is said like it's a bad thing or that it's being said by a guy who doesn't really benefit from the Bewsh tax cuts in any way.

his plan to raise gasoline taxes

Obama does not propose any new taxes on gasoline at the pump. He has said he intends to "close loopholes" on taxes for oil and gas companies. But thanks for lying.

his plan to nationalize health care

Again . . . I don't know what's worse - that this is said like it's a bad thing or that the author of such a statement doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. Two Words, Dumb butt: Insurance Conglomerates. That's why we'll NEVER have National Health Care in this country.

Aaaand, so on and so on with a bunch of steaming peanut-buttery horseshit which has been debunked a billion times over and doesn't fucking matter anyway.

Aaaaand . . . AGAIN . . . not ONE word as to why I SHOULD vote for John McCain. Only extremely false and enormously off-the-charts insane "reasons" why I SHOULDN'T vote for Barack Obama.

Honestly, are you guys even TRYING anymore? Do you guys LISTEN to the idiotic asshole bullshit you spew . . . what am I saying, of course you don't. Put your thumbs back up your asses now . . . and bark menacingly . . . or something . . . .

9. Amazing audacity, isn't it? And what gets me is
along with that, they're brazen enough to strut around as the MORAL PARTY! That's the part that goes way too far. That's the part that needs to be ripped away from them, so scandalously, that they'll never dare say it again. That's the ultimate deception, and the one all the others ride on.

That's why I'm in favor of exposing all the scummy stuff. It's who they are, and the hiding behind mirrors has to be stopped.

Ah, geez, they get me worked up. It's just so sickening because the consequences are so dire for so many.

10. I love how they put Sarah Palin's name in front of McCain's
It's almost as if they don't care about him or something.
