Poor Inhofe demonized by dems

[bow-tie]

I got this fund raiser e-mail for Andrew Rice, pretty funny what Inhofe's saying.

Last Thursday, DFA members nationwide took action and raised over $21,000 for Andrew Rice and his campaign to unseat Republican extremist, Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe. Now, Sen. Inhofe is running scared.

His campaign knows Sen. Inhofe will never win on the issues or by defending his extremist record and ridiculous statements. So instead, they attacked you, the so-called "far-left". Here is an excerpt from their fundraising message on Friday:

"Just yesterday, a group founded by Howard Dean called Democracy for America (DFA) sent a fundraising email to liberal activists nationwide calling my friend, Senator Jim Inhofe, a "Republican Extremist." I hope that, like me, you laughed at this kind of over-the-top language, especially since it comes from a group that thinks America isn't even a democracy.

What's not funny is this far-left group's fundraising potential. They've timed their message just three days before the end of a critical quarter. With the help of DFA and many other liberal groups fundraising on his behalf, Senator Inhofe's likely opponent hopes to impress his liberal counterparts in Washington, New York, and San Francisco so he can attract even more out-of-state dollars."

That's right, we've got them worried. Now, let's double your impact. Contribute $20.08 to Andrew Rice right now.

According to Sen. Inhofe's campaign, we're "pouring tens of thousands of dollars into so can distort Senator Inhofe's record. Outrageous lies are being spread and partisan negative attacks are being launched"

They go on and say they are worried that "liberal groups like Democracy for America may succeed in their efforts to demonize Senator Inhofe."

They're afraid of the power of millions of voices calling for change. They are afraid that Andrew Rice will win and deliver real results for Oklahoma and America. Sen. Inhofe is afraid of you. Contribute $20.08 today and remind him why.

Working together, we will elect a progressive Congress.

P.S. If you missed Jim's endorsement message from Thursday, I have included it below so you can learn more about both candidates in this race and why it is so important that we elect Andrew Rice in November.

Dear XXX,
Support Andrew Rice with a contribution of $25 today.

I know you've heard of Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe.

He claimed that Global Warming is "the second-largest hoax ever played on the American people, after the separation of church and state." He believes the Weather Channel is behind the hoax to attract viewers. And he's compared environmentalists to "Nazis" and the Environmental Protection Agency to the "Gestapo."

We can make this Sen. Inhofe's last year in office.

Andrew Rice has a proven record in the Oklahoma Legislature having worked on issues like health care, veteran's rights, and the environment. Andrew will bring his experience to Washington to fight to end the War in Iraq, provide access to health care for all Americans, and solve the crisis of global warming.

Andrew Rice is the progressive Democrat who will finally bring change to Oklahoma. Support Andrew's campaign with a contribution of $25 right now.

2. America isn't a democracy

The United States is a republic with democractic ideals. America is in no manner a democracy.

I love when Rethug pols prattle on about crap they know nothing about.

6. Usually, the republicans are the ones saying this.

If you try to talk with the more extreme republicans, they are the first to say, "We are not a democracy, we are a republic."

I always say, "We are a democratic republic. And what is your point?"

They don't have one.

A poster in here said to me once that it would be interesting if * gave a speech saying that we are trying to "spread republic" or "bring republic" to Iraq.

7. yeah, just kinda fun to throw it back

and of course, it's rather irritating when pols forget that the US is only a portion of the Americas.

Spreading Republic sounds really, really frightening. Kind of like a fungus or something.
