Senator John Kerry writes, "shhh... the president is coming..."
Edited on Fri Jun-30-06 06:21 PM by Jeffersons Ghost
"naa, on second thought, why switch positions?"

Senator John Kerry writes:


Dear DU,

Last night, President Bush appeared at a big-ticket fundraiser for embattled GOP Senator Jim Talent in Missouri. Tomorrow, it's off to Ohio to raise funds for Mike DeWine, another GOP Senator that we have a solid chance to defeat come November.

The Republicans think they can sneak President Bush and Vice President Cheney in and out of these states under cover of darkness, and that vulnerable Republican candidates will pick up GOP special interest campaign dollars -- not Bush-Cheney baggage.

Make them pay a price for this most cynical of political calculations.

Today, we are helping the Democratic candidates Bush is determined to keep out of the Senate. As Bush heads to Ohio, please lend your immediate support to Sherrod Brown, who is running a strong campaign in this critical swing state, and other Democratic Senate candidates battling in tight races.

ACT TO HELP OUR CANDIDATES BEFORE THE JUNE 30TH DEADLINE!

We can't let the Bush/Cheney fund raising juggernaut buy Republican candidates out of the trouble they're in because they rubber-stamp this administration's failed policies. The President tries to travel under the radar on these trips -- rubbing elbows with well-heeled Republican donors, while the GOP candidates he's supporting try to avoid rubbing elbows with him.

But, we won't let their fast and furious fund raising turn the tide in some of the closest Senate races in the country. We're weighing in with powerful grassroots support to counter the President's fundraiser-in-chief performance. Two days ago, we got off to a good start, helping Sherrod Brown in Ohio, Claire McCaskill in Missouri and Maria Cantwell in Washington state.

Today we're adding Senator Bob Menendez of New Jersey to the list of strong Democrats who need our support. In March, Cheney came to the Garden State to raise money for Menendez's Republican opponent, handpicked by Karl Rove, who offered rush-hour traffic as his excuse for arriving late and missing a photo-op with the Vice President.

Menendez is currently fighting back against a ruthless smear attack distorting his courageous actions from 25 years ago. Let's show him and Democrats around the country that we refuse to let any of our public servants be subjected to outrageous lies for partisan political gain.

With the June 30th deadline fast approaching, we need to step up our efforts to give Democrats the resources they need to fight back and win.

ACT TO HELP OUR CANDIDATES BEFORE THE JUNE 30TH DEADLINE!

This is a critical test of our resolve. The Bush Republicans would like nothing better than to set our candidates back by burying them under an avalanche of Republican special interest money and distortions. But, we won't let it happen. We're standing by our candidates through thick and thin, and we're driving through to victory.

I urge you to do everything you can to impact these important Senate races. Let's show the Bush fund raising machine that we mean business.

Sincerely,


John Kerry

The Ohio people are begging for our help in taking back their state and our country, and kerry is working extremely hard to make this a reality too.

5. Try this...
Look at the photo of Bush (with the quarterback quote) and try this:

Cover one side of his face at a time.

"His right" side is the face he shows the public.
"His left" side is the internal face...what he's really thinking.

Notice the difference. It's frightening! I saw this "trick" on the Internet a long time ago, and every time I see GWB, I do this and it just freaks me out.

6. Ewwwwwww....
You're right. That's disgusting.

Most people do have different "sides" to their faces, but this is dramatic. It's like an evil twin.
