Copy of Bill Frist letter sent to freepers
Dear ,

This week, Ted Kennedy and John Kerry dumped $1 million from their campaign war chests into Democrat coffers. They answered the call of liberal groups who are pressing Democrats to pour tens of millions into a final push to gain control of Congress.

RNC Chairman Ken Mehlman issued his own challenge to you and me Wednesday night - asking us to help him to double the Kennedy / Kerry bid for Congress.

Thousands of our grassroots supporters have already responded. The momentum is on our side and we need to keep it going. Will you help today?

GOP.com/Challenge/Frist

Kennedy and Kerry are leading the charge for good reason. As Kennedy said, he sees this election as "a critical opportunity to reverse the damage done by the Bush Administration".

But I can tell you this: Democrats are wrong on every issue: From surveillance of international calls coming into our country to securing our borders to keeping our economy strong.

As Senate Majority Leader, I've worked closely with leaders of the Democrat Party -- and I can say without a doubt they have repeatedly proven to lack the credibility and ideas needed to lead the United States Congress.

Nancy Pelosi -- who the Democrats want to be Speaker of the House -- said "I don't really consider us at war." We cannot turn the War on Terror over to that kind of thinking.

Harry Reid -- who would be the Senate Majority Leader if Democrats win -- has called President Bush a "loser" and repeatedly uses obstructionist tactics including the threat of shutting down the Senate in order to "screw things up."

Charlie Rangel -- who will become chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee -- said "No question about it" when asked whether he would consider raising taxes on all Americans.

That is the just the tip of the iceberg. Democrats proudly talk about raising taxes, retreating in on the War on Terror, cutting and running from Iraq and starting impeachment hearings against President.

We cannot let the Democrats succeed.

There are only 11 days until the election.

And our Party needs your financial support now more than ever, Title Last Name.

Please click the link below to make an urgent donation of $25, $50 or $100 to fully fund the Republican National Committee's final ten day Get-Out-the-Vote program. Help meet Chairman Mehlman's challenge to double the Kennedy / Kerry bid.

GOP.com/Challenge/Frist

Democrats hope to win on November 7th by using vicious and angry attacks against our Party and our President instead of proposing solutions to the issues that face America.

We are a nation at war with a determined enemy who continues to plot against America. And Republican leadership of Congress during the final two years of the Bush Presidency is the best way our country can continue to answer threats to our security head on. We have made the tough decisions on keeping our nation safe with little or no support from Democrats.

Though I'll be leaving office and returning home to Tennessee this year, I am determined to do all I can to help Republicans keep our majorities in both Houses of Congress.

Yet I know it is Republican activists like you who are the key to victory. Will you help meet the Kennedy/Kerry challenge with a contribution of $25, $50 or $100 now?

1. Hmmm
I didn't get that one. Somehow Frist campaign got my email address. I want to lamblast them and tell them not to send any more. But I didn't, I figured I would receive the email and find out just what was going on in his mind. Wonder why I was cut off.

2. Not all freeps got this email - it was in my inbox this morning.
I reminded him, that as a good republican (ha ha), I could not, in good conscience vote for a party that covers up for pedophiles.

It won't get read but I felt better.

4. That Frist sure can raise money
Republican women want him and the men want to be like him.

When he pleads for cash he dips into the fear closet and throws a Pelosi, or a Rangel "tax raiser" at them.
Only Bill Frist M.D. knows how to arrest their fears of a Democrat world where health care is a National right.

Bill Frist M.D. resorts to his well rehearsed bedside manner to calmly explain to Repubs that " YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE! if Democrats get elected.

The biggest lie in the screed:
"As Senate Majority Leader, I've worked closely with leaders of the Democrat Party."

I wanted to point out one minor flaw in your letter:

"Democrats hope to win on November 7th by using vicious and angry attacks against our Party and our President instead of proposing solutions to the issues that face America."

The Republicans have been doing this for FUCKING YEARS. Hell, they do it 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They do it on Clear Channel, they do it at our religious institutions, they do it on Fox News, they do it even on right-wing blogs like Free Republic. Hey, now that you guys have absolute power, why dont you, instead of wasting time attacking us, actually shut the fuck up and do your fucking jobs for a change? Huh? Is that so hard to ask?
