Email from Bush-Cheney 04 Relection Chair Marc Racicot
Take action to overcome John Kerry's (527's) special interests!

April 5, 2004


The President's re-election campaign needs your help with a simple e-mail. As you know, special interest groups called "527s" have been spending millions in unregulated soft money to defeat President Bush. We need you to write a letter TODAY to the Federal Election Commission asking that John Kerry's soft money special interest groups obey the law at:

The Bush-Cheney campaign is taking steps to ensure that these groups comply with federal election law. Last week, the Bush-Cheney campaign and the Republican National Committee filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission to take the first step toward getting these groups into court before a federal judge.

Now the campaign can use your help. The Federal Election Commission is considering implementing new rules that would force these groups to comply with federal law. The special interest groups are running a nationwide e-mail campaign opposing these rules. To make sure that everyone plays by the same rules we need you to tell the Commissioners they should force these groups to comply with federal law.

If you have just a few minutes, please send an e-mail as soon as possible by going to:

Onward,

Marc Racicot

Yeah, the RNC (which is currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bush-Cheney campaign) doesn't care what happens to other conservative groups. In fact, they'd like to shut them down too, and have the RNC and Bush-Cheney campaigns be the sole recipients of conservative dollars. May not be best for conservatives, for the Constitution, nor even for the party or even, perhaps, for Bush-Cheney, but it's best for the folks running the campaign and the party.
