Their real target is YOU-We are just collateral damage-SO START FIGHTING AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON

If the usual suspects had learned anything from the recent interactions between the President and the LGBT community, there would be some pointed phone calls going out to the DNC and the President's money men. Rich Trumka, Bob King, Mary Kay Henry, Jim Hoffa, Matt Loeb, etc would all be calling and saying do the Democrats WANT our help? Do you want the money from our PACs, our GOTV programs, our people on the gound? ALL these things end NOW unless we see some real movement to help make sure that Walker is recalled in Wisconsin. This IS not up for discussion. Fight like this battle is going to determine your future because it is. Without us, you lose a huge piece of your base, and the financial industry will sell you out for Mitt Romney, hell they would sell you out for Herman Cain. And they never supply ground forces. But Walker and everyone like them are determined to kill us to kill you. LET ME MAKE THAT CLEAR TO YOU - they know it if you don't. Their real target is YOU. We are just collateral damage. SO START FIGHTING AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT - IT DOES. And if you aren't going to help us, we might as just try to survive as long as possible and that means putting our resources to doing that - not help you.
