GAFreepers - Meet your new Policial Enemy
Cable-TV | 10/26/02 | Self

Posted on 10/26/2002 10:19:32 AM PDT by jriemer

GAFreepers,

A new political enemy has entered the Georgia Congressional and Senate races this weekend and its called "MainstreetUSA". This group organization just started running some really offensive political ads that air every other break on my Atlanta cable network on several channels. They claim that we are in the "Bush recession" and it is the worst since the Great Depression and continue with a tale of woe. They end with a line that is approximately "we can't trust the President to run the economy, so you shouldn't trust the republicans either." It's complete garbage but there's people out there that will believe it. The Clapper(TM) was a big seller for awhile you know.

If you go to their website (www.mainstreetusa.org), you will find that the original organization running the ads is really a front for another Democratic-affillate group called American Family Values.

With an ever-tightening race between Saxby and Cleland, the DNC and their minons must be throwing the soft (and dirty) money at the Georgia races by the bushel.

IronJack,

A bucket of warm spit has done more to help the American economy than Daschle and his merry band of obstructionist twerps in the Senate.

Bush can't "save" the economy if he can't get his agenda passed. He have done more to advance THEIR political platform in the interest of setting a "new tone" and got nearly nothing in return. If someone wants to point a finger on this economy, its at the direction of the Democrats. They would rather preserve their own power than preserve the Union.

Any multi-cell organism with a functioning nervous sytem knows that.

My point is that the Democrats can be expected to beat this drum endlessly until the election. It's all they have, and it ain't much.

Howlin,

I remember when the left used to be hammered on the "family values" campaign issue. Now they made lemonade out of those lemons and turned it into a political organization to take the fight to us. Now someone interested in family values is directed to a Democrat front group that wouldn't give a flip about the family.

The stupid RNC et. al. didn't have the foresight to establish a poltical organization and a domain name to keep them from doing this. Thanks guys.

I have to go offline in a moment, but this will remind me to get the "giantGAfreeper list" out to flag tomorrow.

Thanks for the reminder... wife's gotten ideas about yardwork, and it slipped my mind this morning.

As always, if you want off this list, you need to email me.


Neighbors, this election is so important I cannot overemphasize it...

...at the very least, commit yourself to voting, and get everyone you know to vote, too.
Now is the time to support people you like, and hammer the ones you don't... write letters, call talk shows, generally make a nuisance of yourself.

If you don't, you have no grounds to complain if things don't go your way.
The only things that will keep me from the polls are death or a major family catastrophe.

For further inspiration, may I refer you to this:

-Activate Yourself! --

Godspeed, and may God bless...

Just watched the Senate debates. I am switching my vote from libertarian to Republican on this race. The Libertarian is weak, real weak.

Thanks to both of you for the heads up. .45MAN and I wouldn't miss this election for the world! We didn't miss the McNinney primary either, and look what happened to her!! LOL!

All us Georgians owe a debt of gratitude to everyone who could vote against that clown... and her father.

On an unrelated note, I have seen the volume of stories pick up so much in the last month that I can hardly keep up with linking them... I used to compose one or two mass email/DUBOB 9 updates a day; it's gone up to one per hour at times. I can't account for it; I just know it's happened.

Hopefully it's because of more interest in conservative issues and reporting, and is a harbinger of good things to come in the results of 11/5.

Oh, but I can. More people are becoming fed-up with being force-fed lies and deceit. Proof of this is the decidedly ***conservative*** turn the Urinal-Constipation has taken over the past few months. I'm still not buying into it, but it's nice to see while it lasts!

I guess that rules out the majority of Rat voters.
