"The President broke the law and he must be held accountable."

"and children, this is a picture of our president who is working on a new world order." (naaa, he didn't actually say that but it was irresistable)

Thanks to you, and tens of thousands of others around the country, the President and his administration now realize that they're not going to get away with it any longer. A news report out this morning says that the Republican National Committee will run radio ads in my home state of Wisconsin, filled with the same scare tactics that they tried to use on me during my last election.

It didn't work then, and it won't work now.

Contrary to the spin from the President we heard once again today, this issue is not about whether the government should be wiretapping terrorists - of course it should, and it can under current law. The President simply refuses to follow that law.

And to show that progressives won't back down and that we'll stand up for the rule of law, the Constitution, and the rights and freedoms on which our country was founded, I'm asking for your help today.

According to the news report, these attack ads will begin airing this week on both Milwaukee and Madison radio stations. We must show the President and others that we will not be intimidated. So today I ask you to contribute $250, $150, $50 or whatever you can afford to the Progressive Patriots Fund as a show of support to help me raise the funds needed to help elect more progressive candidates across the country who won't back down to this Administration or the Washington nay-sayers.

As Democrats, we must prove that we won't back down from a fight. We must stand up and stand together, and with one voice demand accountability from a President who has broken the law.

I'll never back down and I know you won't either.

Thanks again for your continued support.

Sincerely,



Russ Feingold
United States Senator
Honorary Chair, Progressive Patriots Fund
