Moveon.org Response to the Barracuda's Speech...

Got this in email from MoveOn.org. I would encourage all to sign up and see how scared they really are. What a bunch of pinhead, hypocrite, chicken sh*t sheeple. Here's an excerpt...

Dear MoveOn member,
Did you watch Sarah Palin's speech last night? The speech told us a lot about her.
It told us that she can distort the facts and deliver mean-spirited zingers with the best of them. It told us that if Rush Limbaugh or Ann Coulter ever need a stand-in, she'd be a great pick. [What about Biden's mean spirited zingers the other day?]

It told us that she can be condescending and dismissive of the real work Barack Obama did helping real people on the South Side of Chicago. It told us that she can uphold the long Republican tradition of lying about Democratic tax cuts—even though Obama's plan would give Americans a bigger break than McCain's. [What real people? Let's see what BHO actually accomplished!]

But the speech—written by one of President Bush's speechwriters—didn't tell us the truth about Sarah Palin's extremist positions. And the more that people know her far-right views, the less they support her. [BHO writes his own speeches, I suppose? Perhaps, since he never sits in his Senate seat...]

One of the best ways to get the word out about Palin is to write a letter to the editor of your local paper. Today's a great day to write because this is very relevant—it just happened last night. Plus, our online tool makes it easy and has great tips. Please take a few minutes to write a quick letter to the editor now. [address removed by moi]

Palin's speech and the reaction to it also made clear why McCain picked her. It wasn't a decision about who's most qualified to serve a heart-beat away from the presidency—it was a political decision about pleasing the far-right base of the Republican party. [Biden is most qualified? Come on?]

Thanks for all you do.
