League of American Voters can't wait for the funeral to be over before they sent this?
An Urgent Message From the League of American Voters



Ted Kennedy's Death Breathes New Life into Obama Care
What We Must Do . . .


Dear Fellow American:

This week, Ted Kennedy, the great liberal icon, has passed away.

But his dream of a socialistic health care system for all Americans is dangerously close to becoming a reality.

Though recent polls suggested Obama's radical plans of a "public option" and adding 50 million new patients to the government system were in serious trouble, Ted Kennedy's passing may have breathed new life into them.

As CNN reported this week: "Ironically, his death might bring about a change of tactics that would help reach the goal he was unable to achieve in life, one veteran political analyst says.

"'Kennedy's departure may in fact increase the chances that we get a more sweeping health care bill,' American Enterprise Institute analyst Norman Ornstein recently told CNN."

Scary!

Remember the Democrats still have big majorities in the House and the Senate.

We also remember from the Stimulus Bill that several Republicans betrayed their party to vote for the Democratic plan.

The message I have for you today is simple: we must stop Obama Care and we CANNOT let our guard down.

Just over two weeks ago the League of American Voters launched its national campaign to stop Obama Care.

In short order, our powerful ad featuring a respected medical doctor exposing the dangers of Obama Care have supporters of the Obama plan reeling.

People are waking up. You can see the ad and help us by Going Here Now

But we also are well aware that Ted Kennedy's death has evoked tremendous sympathy for his dream of a socialist health care take over.

The irony of Kennedy's death is that under Obama Care Kennedy would likely never have gotten the top-notch, expensive medical care he was afforded.

No doubt, one of the Obama oversight committees would have nixed the use of government resources for a person of Kennedy's age with a terminal disease like brain cancer.

We cannot allow for government to dictate to the type and quality of health care for us and our loved ones.

We cannot allow government to run the health care system like they do the Post Office!

We must continue this battle.

As I write this, the League has to firm up its TV ad buys for the next two weeks. We have already raised over $1.3 million. But we need to raise $5 million to kill off Obama Care.

We need your urgent help to make this happen — Go Here Now

Dick Morris says the League of American Voters is the "the number one group today fighting Obama Care, they deserve your support."

Dick is the League's chief strategist — and actually crafted our ads and national campaign.

We are having a tremendous effect.

Help us continue — Go Here Now.

Thank you for all of your help.

Sincerely,

Bob Adams
Executive Director

P.S. The New York Times reported that liberal groups backing Obama Care are outspending groups like ours 3 to 1. Yet we are still winning the war of public opinion. This means when the public finds out the truth, they are siding with us. We just need to keep doing our work and getting our ads out. Please help us make a difference — we can't afford to lose this because of Ted Kennedy — Go Here Now.

1. Send this in reply to them:
Your God will never forgive you for doing this. You may think what you're doing is right, but you will have to pay a heavy price for it later on - from God. You are doing to have to answer for this to your God at the moment of your death. What you are doing is evil, and God knows every single thing you do. All I can do is pray for your soul that God will show some mercy on you and forgive you. Don't bother to apologize or ask my forgivness for this, because my forgiveness is not the one you will need.

7. If there is such thing as hell, how do you know how many people end up there?

Quit living your life via superstition.

9. You might want to use wikipedia to look up the concepts of salvation by grace.
I don't think this is the appropriate forum for me to explain the concepts of Christianity.

However if we work from the assumption that the person you are writing to is a Christian and DOES believe in the ability for Christ to forgive sins they you making threats that are contrary to the teachings of the faith is kinda stupid.

1) You don't speak for God
2) Salvation is from Grace not works.
2) Most Christians know actions don't earn you a place in heaven nor do they secure you a spot in hell.

Wow!

You got the toe sucker as your chief strategist?

We don't stand a chance.
