Newman Moonbats It For the DSCC
Either Paul Newman is a fool and ignoramus who doesn't know what he is talking about, or he is a serious leftwing Moonbat. Politico has an email be distributed by the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee in which Newman uses scare-mongering tactics to get gullible Americans to give money in order to elect more anti-American Socialists to the Senate.
In it, Newman writes:
"It was one of my life's proudest achievements."More than the films, more than the awards - finding out that I was on Nixon's Enemies List meant that I was doing something right.
"Nixon didn't like my campaigning for Democratic presidential candidate Eugene McCarthy. But then again, he didn't much care for debate, dissent, or the Constitution either.
"I was proud to stand with Democrats against an imperial president back then. And I am proud now to stand with a new generation of Democrats against a president who poses what I believe to be the biggest internal threat to American democracy in my lifetime.
"That's why, when I was asked to send this message on behalf of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC), I quickly agreed. A Democratic Senate is the best defense against this administration. I am as frustrated as all of you that Congress hasn't made more progress on issues we care about here in 2007. But I also know that Democrats only have a 51-49 majority in the Senate - and that Republicans, with threats of filibusters and vetoes, have tried to block just about everything.
"We've got to preserve and strengthen our Senate majority in 2008, and the best way to do that is by supporting the DSCC. No other Democratic Party organization - not even the DNC - is focused exclusively on electing Democrats to the Senate.
"The DSCC is only $114,941 away from their crucial second quarter fundraising goal. They need you to get there.
"Click here to make a contribution of $50, $75 or more to make sure Democrats keep control of the United States Senate. Make a contribution now and a group of Democratic senators will match every single dollar you give, effectively doubling your contribution.
"You can take your pick of issues where Republicans are seriously damaging this country: Iraq, global warming, civil liberties. But I resent them most for how they've destroyed the American spirit by using xenophobia and fear to hold onto power.
"It's scare-mongering pure and simple, and it is the only thing Republicans have left to offer.
"We need to preserve and expand the slim 51-49 Democratic majority in the Senate, and we need to do the hard work to make it happen now.
"Click here to make a contribution of $50, $75 or more to make sure Democrats keep control of the United States Senate. Make a contribution now and a group of Democratic senators will match every single dollar you give, effectively doubling your contribution.
"One seat is all that separates Republicans from retaking the United States Senate. That's why the 2008 elections are so pivotal.
"The DSCC needs to raise $114,941 by June 30. I'm more than happy to help. I hope you'll join me.
"After all, the Senate hangs in the balance, with only one seat making all the difference.
"Let's do our best to keep it in Democratic hands."
There is also a video in which Newman sys that this White House is making America less strong. What has Newman been smoking?
In his hit piece he claims that Republicans are "seriously damaging this country," and then cites the war in Iraq, global warming, and civil liberties (I guess he is referring to the McCain/Feingold Campaign Finance Reform). He also purports that Republicans have "destroyed the American spirit by using xenophobia and fear to hold onto power." The "American spirit" by the liberl/progressive/socialists and the drugged-out hippies of the '60s that have taken over the Democratic party, not by Republicans.
What's some of the proofs on this? Easy: The Clinton Adminstration, along with his DNC cohorts in Congress gutted our intelligence agencies, as well as our military, during the '90s. They also treated Osama bin Ladin and al-Qaeda as being a law enforcement issue, and never took the threat seriously, including passing by an opportunity to have bin Ladin extradited to the U.S. End result: 9/11.
It was Democrat Jimmy Carter who handed Iran, at that time a staunch ally of the U.S. to the Ayatollahs and Mullahs, resulting in a tyrannical theocracy that is fueling terrorism and moving towards nuclear weapons.
Carter also hamstrung the nuclear energy industry by banning the reprocessing of nuclear fuel rods, causing these spent, radio-active, fuel rods to be stockpiled as hazardous waste.
It was John Kerry who pushed the Winter Soldier campaign during the Vietnam War era and Democrats who abandoned our ally, South Vietnam, and surrendered South East Asia to communists, resulting in the brutal murder of millions of men, women and children.
It is Democrats who are pushing hardest to legalize millions of illegal aliens, rather than enforce out laws.
It is Democrats who are pushing to silence free speech on the radio waves by reinstating the "Fairness" Doctrine.
On Iraq, it is the Democrats that have sounded "retreat" and are pushing towards abandoning our fledgling ally, Iraq, which will result in chaos and a killing field that will dwarf what happened in Cambodia in 1975.
Democrats are also wrong on Global Warming, but that is because they worship at the altar of Al Gore rather than read the science on the subject and learn that current climate warming trend is a natural phenomenon, and not caused by mankind.
The real scare-mongers are the Democrats and their shills. They have done more damage to the American spirit, and done more to assault the Constitution in my lifetime than the GOP has done since it formed in the 1850s.
If Paul Newman serious believes that Republicans have destroyed the American Spirit, then he must not have any clue as to what the American spirit actually is.
Congratulations, Paul, you are the latest recipient of the Moonbat Award.
