Karl Rove at the DCCC, breaking into e-mails...etc?
Dear DUer,

As my last act in the White House, I asked Dick Cheney if he could help me break into the DCCC and send you this email.

You see I've been watching you and other Democratic activists and let me say I'm a bit concerned. Over the past eight months Democrats in the House have made life for my Republican friends and me difficult -- issuing subpoena after subpoena. This has got to stop.

Democrats have only been able to take these actions because people like you have backing them up.

Well, the end of the quarter is only 72 hours away and from reading your emails over the past week I know that the DCCC has a goal of raising $1 million online and some donors, who clearly hate America, have setup a special 2-TO-1 matching fund so your contributions will effectively be tripled.

On behalf of Dick Cheney, I order you not to contribute to the DCCC by clicking here: Contribute to the Democratic Majority Matching Fund Drive

For six years the Republicans in Congress let George, Dick and me get away with every trick in the book. Making up stuff about weapons of mass destruction, revealing the identity of a covert agent to get revenge on her husband, firing US Attorneys who went after Republicans; we did it all. And if Republicans were in power we'd still be getting away with it.

I wish it could go back to the way it was. I would do some wild and crazy stuff and the media would help me sweep it under the rug. But with committee chairmen like Henry Waxman and John Conyers now leading investigations into our actions, being in the White House just wasn't as fun anymore. That's why I headed home to Texas.

In fact, Democrats have held more oversight hearings in eight months than Republicans held in six years.Democrats are only able to take these actions because they have a committed set of activists standing behind them. That's why it's so vital you NOT contribute to the DCCC by clicking here: Contribute to the Democratic Majority Matching Fund Drive

Insincerely,

Karl Rove


P.S. This message is obviously a parody. But the sentiment is real -- don't let Karl and his friends go back on the offensive. Make a contribution to the DCCC today by clicking here.

1. I'll give nothing to the DCCC.
My donations will go to MovingOn, DU, and so on, as well as to local Dem candidates and committees, maybe to the Kucinich campaign.

2. I got that too
it gave me a start in the email box with the addy of Karl Rove and the subject of I'm Watching you.
I also got one from W yesterday telling me how I needed to send money to the RNC. Got a good laugh out of that one.
