Re: Statement re Democratic National Committee
Dear Mr Robinson:
We are writing on behalf of our client, the Democratic National Committee (DNC).
A post by “coffee260” on FreeRepublic.com today states that this morning, on the Quinn & Rose show on XM, co-host Quin stated that the DNC chairman, Gov. Howard Dean had called Gov Kathleen Sebelius (D-Kans) “around 5:00am on morning after a tornado destroyed the town of Greensburg, Kansas and discussed with here what to say about the tornado and how to blame the war in Iraq and the Bush administration on a slow response to the aftermath.”
The statement was made by Mr Quinn, repeated on FreeRepublic, is demonstrably, unequivocally and absolutely false. Gov Dean had no such conversation with Gov Sebelius, ever.
No effort was made by FreeRepublic to contact anyone at the DNC for comment or to check the accuracy of these statements before they were published. FreeRepublic not only repeated this statement, but further stressed that Quinn’s “source” was extremely reliable and in a position that would give him direct knowledge of these revelations.
The statements quoted above are false and defamatory, are libelous and slanderous and clearly threaten to interfere with the DNC’s operations and ability to solicit support and raise funds by predjuding the organization in the eyes of the Democratic Party supporters and the public. For these reasons, we demand that FreeRepublic immediately cease and desist from Further dissemination of the above quoted statements or any statements similar in substance and immediately post a retraction of these statements in a location on its web pages at least as prominent as that on which the original story appeared.
Please let us know by noon, May 11, 2007, whether you intend to comply with these requests.
Thanks for your time and immediate attention to this important matter.
Sincerely yours,
(Signature)
Joseph E Sandler
“Thw walls have ears and eyes...........I’m quite surprised they can read.......”
I thought Communists only read German
Good Grief!! I heard the same report on Sean Hannity and Rush I believe. So we’re not to discuss what we’re hearing??
These lunatics are seriously trying to shutdown all republican voices. They are twisted and deranged and they are probably taking down all of our names too!
Fricken’ nazis!!
The letters were displayed on Hot Air which says it received an email copy from the DNC.
see my post #326
CHECK THEIR PHONE RECORDS!
Sure..my aA**............Let’s get some red meat
going on this crapola....tHEY ARE GETTING TOO WISE
FOR THEIR OWN GOOD...MAYBE WE WILL ALL SHOW UP in
2008...then they will see the real Voters. JK
if an attorney wrote this, I’m the king of england..C&D orders are 99.99999% of the time immediate, not giving someone 24 hours..
They are smarter than I thought!
(In case of litigation, will the first 100 FRambulance chasers ready to defend FR pro bono please hold up your hands.)
The next 200, please take a number.
They didn’t contact them because they contacted XM, just like they contacted Freerepublic and not the poster. This post has been going on for hours, don’t you think the Mod’s and Freerepublics lawyers would let a fraudulent letter continue on? It isn’t fake.
I did, but never in combat. I'm honored to have served my country, but I did nothing in comparison with the soldiers and Marines who are fighting this war. They deserve our highest praise.
I agree with you.
Hotair was contacted directly from the DNC and confirms the letters to XM and FR, the C&D is not fake.
I can’t tell whether an attorney wrote it or not. I do know this thread was pulled (I beleive for verification) and then reinstated.
Stronger Response to Follow.
The DNC just emailed me two documents, one a letter to XM and the other a letter to Free Republic. In both letters, the DNC denies without equivocation that the conversation between Dean and Sebelius ever took place. Both are C&D notices from the DNC’s lawyers.
hmmmm.
They fear it, the monitor it and they infiltrate it.
Called out at High Noon!!!
