Re: Statement re Republicans
Dear Mr Dean:
I am writing on behalf of fellow Republicans.
You have made the following statement: "You know, the Republicans are not very friendly to different kinds of people. They're a pretty monolithic party. Pretty much, they all behave the same, and they all look the same. ... It's pretty much a white Christian party.''
The statement made by you has been repeated and quoted throughout the major print media, on the internet, on the radio, and on television. It is, as you are aware, demonstrably, unequivocally and absolutely false. In particular, shame on you for "they all look the same." Just incredible.
No effort was made by you to ask me for a comment or to check the accuracy of this statement before you predictably and characteristically shot off your big mouth. Had you checked with me, I could have introduced you to Republicans I know who are rich, poor, black, brown, Asian, white, Christian, Muslim, Jewish, attorneys, students, unemployed, business owners, military personnel, truck drivers, plumbers, factory workers, radio talk show hosts, straight, gay, agnostic, and atheist. Had you made even a perfunctory effort to gather the facts, you would have been in a position that would give you direct knowledge of these revelations.
The statement quoted above is false and defamatory, is libelous and slanderous and clearly threatens to interfere with any Republican's ability to be respected in the eyes of his community. For these reasons, I demand that you immediately cease and desist from further dissemination of the above quoted statement or any statement similar in substance and immediately post a retraction of these statements on the DNC website in a location at least as prominent as that on which the original story appeared. Also, I demand that you apologize on a major television network during prime time, while wearing appropriate attire for you, a clown costume. Please end the statement with a great big YEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAA. I love that.
Please let me know by noon, May 14, 2007, whether you intend to comply with these requests.
Thanks for your time and immediate attention to this important matter.
Sincerely yours,
Doug from Upland
PS Should I send a copy of this to a slip and fall attorney somewhere?

Wow Doug! Saw Hank Aaron looking skyward...said you knocked this one clear out of the ball park! Way to go from FRiends you haven’t met in other parts of this great country.
The story will have legs if someone in Brownback’s office, the purported source, will go on record. I can’t see Howard Dean being foolish enough to try to push this. Or, maybe I can. They really do worry about the free flow of information that they cannot control.
There, fixed it.

Thanks for the kind words.
Lets correct the error: Gingrich did NOT create a hostile work environment.
HERE IS THE LATEST. THE GOV AND THE DNC HAVE BEEN ASKED TO RELEASE PHONE RECORDS http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1833389/posts
GREAT job, Doug!
Pwned.
I think he’s trying to commit sushi.
No word yet from Dean. Maybe he has been busy with electroshock therapy.
