Subject: Re: DRAFT launch statement for progressive media

Statement looks good - so long as the lawyers approve.

I would reach out to Obama supporters. Let me nominate Jamal Simmons. He's young (to me) Af-Am and way smart. He worked in the Clinton White House and now does commentary with me on CNN.

Other prominent African-Americans should be courted, like Donna Brazile.

How 'bout Dee Dee Myers? Not African-American, but rumored to be a woman. Knows the media as well as anyone.

Hispanics, anyone? Can we ask Maria Echaveste but not Chris Edley? (I'm kinda pissed at Chris for telling the NY Times that the Clinton Admin had a mixed record on civil rights. Funny, he didn't say that when he was in the Clinton Admin).

I will keep thinking.

Is that any way to treat a woman?

Doesn’t sound a whole lot different than the jerk who pontificates on CNN actually. I can hear the weasel’s voice as I read it. Not sure where the fire is on this one.

Af-Am?

Blacks are merely commodity with Democrats.

Everyone is categorized by race... doesn't that seem a little odd?

I can see why it’s just a rumor.

Media?

“Rand Beers” is on the Forehead’s list of prospective agents, a name with which I was not familiar so I looked him up... Says he is current Deputy Homeland Security Advisor.

We paying his salary to be a traitor for the progs.

Everybody issues well crafted press releases. Wikileaks has produced damaging truths but I fail to see how this is more than a mole hill

I agree... I imagine similar discussions go on in Republican planning sessions.
