This CONSERVATIVE ALERT is a special message for jk from RightMarch.com:
ALERT: We need your help -- FAST.

The Senate Judiciary Committee has approved Judge Samuel Alito's nomination, on a straight party-line vote of 10-8. The full Senate is now likely to vote on the nomination this TUESDAY -- or perhaps even earlier -- and groups on the far-left are pulling out ALL the stops to get enough Democrats to support a FILIBUSTER of President Bush's nominee to the Supreme Court.

All the Left needs is 41 votes in support of a filibuster, and they'll be able to BLOCK Judge Alito's confirmation... even though they're in the MINORITY.

They've got 45 Democrats in the Senate -- which means that we need AT LEAST 5 of them to vote FOR Judge Alito.

Here's where the fight is now: the Left is targeting Democrats in red states, to get them to "hold the party line" and vote FOR a filibuster. Last week, Sen. Dick Durbin stated that, "We could sustain a filibuster" -- IF they are able to convince those red state Democrats to vote with them.

That means that WE have to convince those red state Democrats to vote FOR Judge Alito's confirmation -- and we have to move FAST!

Thankfully, there's a way YOU can help NOW: RightMarch.com is part of a coalition of dozens of conservative organizations that have been fighting "tooth and nail" for President Bush's conservative judicial nominees. Now, this "Coalition For a Fair Judiciary" (CFFJ) is running television ads targeting red state Democrats, demanding that they do the RIGHT thing and vote FOR the confirmation of Judge Alito to the Supreme Court!

The first ad is running in the Dakotas, targeting South Dakota Sen. Tim Johnson and North Dakota Sen. Kent Conrad. The ad campaign was put together by some of the same folks that did the "Swift Boat Veterans For Truth" ads against John Kerry in 2004. Take a look at the first ad here:

THESE ARE POWERFUL ADS, and they could make the difference in our efforts to stop the radical liberal groups as they try to force a filibuster in the Senate. In fact today, Sen. Johnson -- one of the Senators we've been targeting -- announced that he WILL vote for Judge Alito! But creating these ads and running them in targeted red states is NOT cheap -- the cost has already hit over $100,000!

TAKE ACTION: Will you help us keep these ads on the air, and even expand them to more states, as we fight to TAKE BACK the judiciary away from liberal extremist judicial activists? PLEASE give your BEST donation right now to help the CFFJ pay for these ads:

Yes, these ads cost a LOT -- but they're WORTH it. In fact, looking beyond the Alito confirmation, this issue could insure that the Democrats do NOT regain the Senate in this fall's elections; Conrad is up for re-election in November, and other potential targets of these ads include Arkansas (Sens. Blanche Lincoln and Mark Pryor) and Florida (Sen. Bill Nelson is up for re-election this year).

The fact is that Democrats completely mishandled the Alito confirmation, and in doing so have created a political opening for the GOP. They have an enormous vulnerability there. The reality of what they did -- at the beck and call of liberal interest groups -- is unacceptable to the vast majority of voters in red state America.

We need to make sure the Democrat Senators in those states KNOW that. These ads are just the thing to remind them -- but we need YOUR help to keep them on the air, and expand their reach.

PLEASE, make your best contribution -- $1000, $500, $250, $100, $50, $35 or whatever you can do -- to FIGHT BACK against the liberal groups' onslaught, and STOP a Democrat filibuster against Judge Alito's confirmation in the U.S. Senate.

The vote is likely to be this TUESDAY -- or perhaps even earlier. Donate online NOW:

Thank you!

NOTE: Be sure to forward this Alert to EVERYONE you know who wants to help demand a FAIR hearing and a FAIR vote in the Senate for the President's conservative pick, Judge Alito. Thank you!

Sincerely,


William Greene, President

4. Thanks...good to know what the opposition is doing...

...how many other DUers are on ReichWingnut lists? We ought to post their crap all the time - just to keep them in sight. Can't hurt. Infiltrate, gather intelligence, share it, ACT against them.

Good plan. ;)
