Call to Action Folks: Let our voices be heard! Please call or write!
Edited on Wed Aug-12-09 01:11 PM by Emit
Fellow DUers, Please help.

NewsMax, Dick Morris, and the League of American Voters are coordinating efforts against Democrats in key red areas: North Dakota, Arkansas, Maine, and Montana, plus 10 other unknown states. They are encouraging constituents to call their reps to say they oppose health care reform.

Do not underestimate these right wingers. Even if you oppose the current form of the reform bill, please call your senators no matter where you live and voice your support for health care reform - in whatever form you do support it. We really need to counter their message and let our representatives know that these right wingers' voices are not the only ones out there.

Let our voices be heard, please call or write! I will try to post a link to the numbers and addresses of these states and more for your convenience in contacting your representatives. Thank you. (cross posting in GD)

Obama Is Scared, He Is On Run, We Can Win This One

Obama's Poll Numbers Plummet.

He Will Do Anything to Start Obama Care.

Dick Morris Has a Plan to Stop Him.

Read More Below.


Dear Fellow American:

Barack Obama and his radical friends in Congress are on the run. They know Americans are shifting away from supporting his so-called healthcare "reform" program.

As Dick Morris, the chief strategist for the League of American Voters, says, Obama's plan is nothing less than a slick attempt to nationalize all of America's healthcare.

Dick has prepared a powerful TV ad that exposes Obama's takeover.

You can see the TV ad by https://www.newsmaxstore.com/contribute/lav/?s=al&promo_code=8536-1">Going Here Now

Dick's ad also warns seniors that, when Obama adds 50 million new patients into the government system, it will collapse Medicare, causing massive rationing of healthcare to people who paid taxes all their lives.

Obama and the Democrats in Congress can't afford to lose the seniors. They are a key swing group.

Polling data shows our message is getting out there.

A new Gallup poll out this week shows that seniors overwhelmingly oppose Obama's plan.

For example, lower percentages of seniors expect the reform plan to benefit them personally than any other age group — and more expect their medical care to worsen than improve by a margin of 39 percent to 20 percent.

And only 34 percent of seniors think healthcare reform would improve medical care in this country.

It's no wonder that Obama's overall job approval ratings are plummeting.

Have no doubt: Democrats in Congress are running scared.

Dick Morris Issues Urgent Plea

Dick Morris, the famous Fox News analyst who Time magazine said was "the most influential private citizen in America," says our national advertising campaign is the best way to defeat Obama Care.

Dick feels so strongly that he has joined our group as chief strategist for the League of American Voters. He has developed a powerful plan to expose Obama Care in key swing states and congressional districts.

This week, thanks to your generous help, we are rolling out the TV ad in four states: North Dakota, Arkansas, Maine, and Montana.

As Dick notes, three of these states are very "red" states that have Democratic senators. We need to encourage voters in these states to let their senators know that they OPPOSE Obama Care.

But we need to add another eight states and 10 congressional districts to our national campaign in the next week.

We need your urgent help to do it — Go Here Now to Donate.

Remember, Congress is set to vote soon after Labor Day. We need to muster every vote we can.

Obama and his crew will do anything to win this. They want to force millions of Americans on the "public option."

We need to expose the lie that "you keep your doctor."

We know that his plan allows most employers to move all their employees on to the cheaper public system — even against their will!

Do you want your healthcare run the same way government runs the U.S. Postal Service?

I doubt it.

In fact, Obama just admitted that private companies such as FedEx and UPS work fine. In fact, they are profitable and have delivery systems that are efficient.

But in the same breath, Obama revealed that the Postal Service has problems!

If the U.S. government can't oversee the Postal Service, which delivers just packages, how can it properly handle the medical care of more than 300 million Americans?

You know the answer. I know the answer. The American people know the answer.

It can't.

That's why your support of the League of American Voters is so critical.

When you support us, you become a member of our organization.

We represent millions of Americans like you who want less government, more accountability in Congress and who support our free enterprise system.

Unlike many Washington-based groups, we don't keep luxury offices and have exorbitant staffs.

The overwhelming bulk of our membership funds goes into education and awareness campaigns, just like the one we are doing with Dick Morris on opposing healthcare.

Dick Morris says, "I can’t think of a group doing better, more important work than the League of American Voters. They need and deserve your support."

Please help us today — the clock is ticking! Go Here Now to Donate

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Bob Adams
Executive Director
