Those Darn Deceitful Liberal Ads


I received this message from BushCheney'04 today:

Dear $$$$$$,

Last week, I sent you an e-mail asking for your help to keep pressure on the FEC and encourage them to take action to stop the flow of tens of millions of dollars in illegal soft money that is funding attack ads on President Bush. Your response was fantastic. More than 66,000 e-mails have been sent to the Commissioners. Thank you for all you've done. Unfortunately, we cannot rely on the FEC to act anytime soon.

We must prepare for the worst and assume that these shadowy liberal propaganda groups - who are illegally working to help Senator Kerry - will outspend our campaign until they are forced to shut down. President Bush needs the help of grassroots leaders like you to respond to the deceitful ads these groups are airing with this illegal cash. Please contribute today, using our secure server, so we'll have the resources to counter their efforts.

Don't let billionaires like George Soros - who has compared President Bush to a Nazi and said he would spend every penny he has to win - side-step the law and use illegal funds to attempt to defeat our President. Please help today.

As you can see they are pleading for even more GOP campaign contributions while simultaneously characterizing as illegal the fundraising actions of "shadowy liberal propaganda groups" such as MoveOn.org . Pretty damn funny. Note: I'm on the BushCheney'04 mailing list specifically so that I can receive these interesting mailings; I of course don't actually contribute to their campaign.
