Conservative Activists Are Proving to be a Pathetic Bunch

Posted by Erick Erickson

September 10th

Some of you will take offense at this post. Instead, you should take action.

The Democrat opponent to Congressman Joe Wilson has raised over $100,000.00 since last night.

What have you given to Joe Wilson. The man spoke for America. And now we need to open our wallets for Joe.

It does no good to pat Joe on the back or give him an “atta boy.” Joe Wilson needs us to open our wallets and checkbooks. Joe Wilson is now a serious threat to Barack Obama because he dared point out that the Emperor has no clothes. The left will target him. The left will target his family. The left will try to destroy Joe Wilson.

We can stop the left. But we must give generously to Joe.

Does anyone have a link to Joe’s web site? Or donation site?

That number keeps going UP and UP! I call BS.

Wilson’s sites have been down since he yelled.
Give it time.

When the hard copy checks start flowing in, Joe is going to be a very happy camper.

The Democrat opponent to Joe Wilson has over 400k+ in past political debt. That 100k puts him now only 350k in the hole compared to the already 50k+ in the black that Wilson is.

So currently Wilson has about 400k more.

I mean to say 400k more that his opponent who has to retire another 350K or so before he has ZERO money.

Yeah, he spoke for America and then he backed down and apologized.

Gutless.

What he did is no worse than what happens in Parliament. BO is so darned eager to turn us into Europe, he should like that kind of ‘heckling’ - - it’s so not American.

What is truly pathetic are the RINOs, who have COMPLETLY lost the pulse of their base and only stand up to criticize their own membership base...... The Pubbies need to change their symbol from an elephant to an ostrich......I can not believe how out of touch these moderate pussies are....

YOU GO JOE! SHOW THE PUSSIES IN THE PUBBIE PARTY HOW IT REALLY IS!

Good idea, Steelfish. I’d love to give to him, but your post makes me wonder if you have even tried to give to Joe. I suggest this because I have been trying to get to his website all day—without success. I don’t know if it is a DOS attack by the commies or if there are zillions of people out there like me who desire to give generously but can not get to his website, which appears to be blocked.

I tried last night but his website was so busy it wouldn’t download for me. I figured if I waited a day or two things would calm down.

Is this what it has come to? Now we have to pay every time a elected representative does what he was elected to do.

Who writes this stuff? A single outburst and the guy is suddenly a hero? Show me a real, substantive reason that Joe Wilson deserves my money. Show me some accomplishments, or at the least some genuine potential. What a sad sack we’ve become when we are ready to lionize the first guy who screams two words out of turn.
