MoveOn.Org seeks $.5 million to destroy BootMurtha / Vets For The Truth...

MOVEON.ORG
seeks to pre-empt
BOOTMURTHA!

from MoveOn.org e-mail:

"John Murtha is being smeared but we saw this coming and we have a new TV ad campaign to put Republican candidates on defense early—making a win possible. We can make August a month they'll never forget.
Can you chip in $50 or more today?"...

"We've prepared a hard-hitting new TV ad about Iraq to move this fight into the congressional districts of vulnerable Republicans. But to flood the airways in these places we need to raise $500,000 this week.
Can you chip in $50 or more today?"

 

That's part of an e-mail sent out to MoveOn.org members this week.

The liberal, anti-war, anti-national defense Left knows if John Murtha is defeated in Pennsylvania they will suffer a large set-back. A set-back to their facade that "Harry Truman" and "Scoop Jackson" Democrats exist today.

We never met President Harry Truman... we do not know President Harry Truman; but one thing is clear: John Murtha is no Harry Truman.

This is why the BootMurtha Campaign under Iowa Presidential Watch PAC's Vets For The Truth Committee is so important on the national scene.

 

While conservatives are just waking up to the importance of the BootMurtha project, leftwing Democrats are rally troops to immediately raise $500,000 to stop Boot Murtha.

 

Why is the Left scared of BootMurtha?

BootMurtha has already made the DRUDGEREPORT. BootMurtha already has 'boots on the ground' organizing in Murtha's own state of Pennsylvania. Those volunteers and paid staffers are PA residents and PA veterans. The VFTT Committee is capitalizing on prior knowledge and victory in bringing a successful effort to defeat Murtha in his own backyard.

The other good news is that the 'word on the street' in PA reports Murtha is concerned. Murtha knows his charade as a strong-on-defense congressman can easily be torn apart by the truth – truth BootMurtha is making available to the voters in PA!

The question is this: Will common-sense, conservative Americans recognize the value of supporting BootMurtha EARLY ON in its efforts? To not only defeat the charlatan hawk Murtha, but to defeat the liberal left that will fight to defend their 'stocking horse.'

SHEESH! It's just no fun when you can't even hand them the rope.

LOL!...Agreed, we'll wait a while to hand it to them. Good point about the timing of the ad too, besides by that time there'll be a lot more questions in people's minds.

Let me modify that. Besides those watching the news, which is down, the ads will be seen by those watching Oprah and other daytime TV shows. They will be influenced by the Soros crap. For whom do you think they will vote?

Network news is now down to just about 30 million viewers a night (out of a population of 300 million), down from close to 60 million 30 years ago. And that is a population that is much higher than it was before. If network TV news had anywhere near the power they used to have before, President Bush would have lost in 2004. They don't.

Think it through: It's not about getting on the network news, it's about buying airtime during heavily watched shows... You go where the viewers are. Simple. But expensive.

10 cents out of 50 dollars will actually go to air time.

The cost to produce a TV ad + the cost to air the TV ad = total cost. Fifty dollars will be spent 100% towards these costs. Period.

By the way, I'm the webmaster for BootMurtha.com and I also do all the cartoons, graphics and most of the writing... plus spend time here on FreeRepublic with threads. That puts me at way over 40 hours a week.

Guess how much of that $50 goes to pay me?

ZERO.

And that's so that ALL the $50 can go towards ads or whatever else is needed to Boot Murtha.

I donated again the other day! Haven't received word if it was received.

Larry has been in PA for several days and just got back home to NC. He has not been able to respond to all the wonderful folks yet who contributed.

Good to know. I thought something went wrong during the web contribution. I'm pretty new at it and had a problem the other night with a different transaction.

I was refering to the Moveon solicitation for money.

It is the left that uses "paid volunteers" and "for profit" non-profit organizations.
