email from Barbara Bush, "A mother's pride"
Dear Coco,

With Mother's Day coming up this weekend, I've been thinking about how proud I am of our
children.

And it's with a mother's pride that I'm writing you today to ask you to support our eldest,
George W., and his re-election campaign with a donation of $1000, $500, $250, $100 or
$50.



George W. has been President during challenging times and he has met the tasks at hand
with a steely determination and clarity of purpose. From fighting the War on Terrorism to
defending the homeland, the President has shown steady and strong leadership.

He has worked with Congress to lower taxes three times so American workers
and entrepreneurs can get the economy growing again; pass the No Child Left Behind Act
to help every child learn to read; and provide seniors with a prescription drug benefit.

The President has accomplished a lot in the past three and half years but there is much
more he would like to accomplish. He will continue to help strength our homeland defense
and lay a strong groundwork to win the War on Terrorism. He has put forward plans to save
Social Security, secure pension plans and enhance retirement security for all Americans.
And he has a comprehensive energy plan to make America less dependent on foreign oil.

Earlier this week, our son's re-election team announced their "March to a Million"
campaign. Never before has a presidential campaign received contributions from over one
million supporters. With your help, we'll make history.



This election is going to be a tough one. That is why I'm asking for your support. For
months the President has been facing negative advertising from John Kerry and all sorts of
pro-Kerry groups. I've been particularly disappointed in the personal attacks.

Your donation, no matter what the size, will help advertise the President's positive agenda
for America and deliver his compassionate conservative message directly to the voters.



America needs a strong leader like George W. Bush. He is the right man to lead America
during these challenging times.

Thank you very much for your support today. I hope you and your family enjoy a wonderful
Mother's Day.

Sincerely,

Barbara Bush

8. I'm a "GOP team leader"
and boy am I proud. Once I've signed my name to enough astroturf, I can send away for some ugly GOP merchandise.

7. Let's Honor Babs on Mother's Day
http://prochoiceaction.org/campaign/listen_to_mother/xb5n3342jeibj8

From NARAL this morning:



"For me, abortion is a personal issue - between the mother, father and doctor.... Abortion is not a presidential matter."

--Barbara P. Bush, from her autobiography "Barbara Bush: A Memoir"

Mrs. Bush, we couldn't agree with you more... And with Mother's Day right around the corner, we thought one person in particular should pay a little more attention to his mother: our very own president George W. Bush.

Now every mother has a right to be proud, but Bush will go down in history as the most anti-choice president to date. This is the kind of overachieving American women can do without.

This Mother's Day, urge Bush to listen to his mother -- stop invading our medical privacy and promoting an extreme anti-choice political agenda.
