RNC Chairman Racicot Decries Daschle's Eve of War Attack on President

WASHINGTON - Marc Racicot, Chairman of the Republican National Committee (RNC), today issued the following statement in response to Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle (D-SD), who on the eve of war attempted to gain partisan advantage by blaming President Bush for potential war casualties:

“As President Bush, our Commander in Chief, addresses the grave and serious threats we face at home and abroad, it is disheartening and shameful for Senator Daschle, who has previously advocated and authorized the use of force in Iraq, to now blame America first. I urge all Americans to reject such divisive and brazen political posturing.”

The following is the statement by Senator Tom Daschle that Chairman Racicot is calling him on:

SENATOR TOM DASCHLE: “I’m Saddened, Saddened That This President Failed So Miserably At Diplomacy That We’re Now Forced To War. Saddened That We Have To Give Up One Life Because This President Couldn’t Create The Kind Of Diplomatic Effort That Was So Critical For Our Country.” (Senator Tom Daschle, Remarks At International Association Of Firefighters Conference, 3/17/03)

Text of my message to the Senator:

Senator Daschle,
Regarding your latest despicable, infantile tirade against the President prior to his remarks last night, all I can say is this; look, we have exhausted virtually our diplomatic effort to get the Iraqis to comply with their own agreements and with international law. Given that, what other option is there but to force them to do so? ... The answer is, we don't have another option. We have got to force them to comply, and we are doing so militarily."

Cordially,

I moved from S.D. over twenty years, and still have many relatives and friends that live there. The problem of S.D. electing far out social leftists like Daschle is caused by a huge block of voters that want everything for nothing. He owns them and the state until he gets run off like McGovern.

"I hope you don't mind, I just sent a copy of Frist's letter to him that you wrote. "

You are welcome to use it, but let me point out that I wrote as a constituent. I think that we are each more effective with our own representatives.

Thanks, I'm sure that if a couple of SD Freepers pickup a little leadership re putting up bill boards, we could the money. I have been pledged half the cost of the first month of a billboard without asking for it.

Da$$hole = ChIraq
S Datoka = France?

That would be a ball buster of a billboard!

I couldn't get his Fax to work either and now someone says when you send him an email, he has something come up about how he supports the military.

This man has disgraced the office of Senator and needs to go!

2004 should tell all about the people of South Dakota to see if they put pork over Country. Daschle is nothing but an obstructionist and now beneath contempt for these remarks!

If we could get something like this up on a billboard in S. Dakota, it might wake up the voters and let Da$$hole know that we at zero tolerance re his behavior.

In just a few replies, I have been guaranteed half the first month's rental on a billboard to blast little Tommy.

We need a few SD Freepers to get involved and to do the leg work. I'm sure that we can finance a billboard for a long time. If they just get it started.

A bump to your most excellent post, Peach.

Those contrasting positions are so wonderfully damning.

It's more than Daschle. Take a look at this!- and take the time to let the Director know what you think!

Can't we volunteer them for a colony on Mars--insuring sterility first--and perhaps using a Columbia sister ship?

My email to this dingle berry =

Your comments about our President's lack of diplomacy reg. Iraq compared to what you said about the liar inchief's (Clinton's) attack on Iraq to wag the dog shows just what an incredidable liar you are and proves that you value your career and your miserable party above our country and brave fighting men. In my opinion you are a low life piece of human debris.

My email to Dashel.

If Bush works on his diplomatic skills will you promise to work on your "short man" complex?
