Nope.

[Alan Grayson]

Yesterday, a group of anti-reproductive-choice zealots protested outside my Orlando district office to demand that I defund Planned Parenthood and return all contributions the women’s health organization has given to my campaign. I thought you’d like to know what I told them:

“Nope.”

It’s really that simple. I will never waiver in my support for reproductive freedom and women’s health care.

Make a $3 contribution and stand with my continued support of Planned Parenthood >>

Courage,

Rep. Alan Grayson
Candidate for U.S. Senate

[haikugal]

1. Thank You!!!!!

[Skittles]

2. awesome

[SidDithers]

3. For those interested in donating directly to Planned Parenthood...

Here's the link to their fine organization:

Surely just an oversight on Congressman Grayson's part that it wasn't included in his post.

7. There's always a donation link

on the good congressman's posts.
Yours is more relevant, though.

[DesertFlower]

23. not just him. it seems like

all of them do that. i sometimes wonder if they really want my opinion or my money.

just noticed he's not a contributing member to DU, but he wants our money.

hey congressman. support DU. you can afford it.

[dgibby]

8. Thanks, Sid.

My niece used to work for them. They ARE a fine organization.

[DesertFlower]

69. thanks. nt

[glinda]

4. Yes. Always best to keep it simple.

[bjobotts]

36. can't get off act blue sign in page after donating???Never again

[SamKnause]

5. Good for you Rep. Grayson !!!!

[Dont call me Shirley]

6. Nope! Good answer!

[zentrum]

9. Hi Alan!

[Spitfire of ATJ]

10. Was that the same group that got busted in a meth raid?

The zealots, not PP.

[Fred Sanders]

11. Vote FOR the Iran peace deal Mr. Grayson. A NO will be a deal breaker with you forever for most everyone at DU.

I am not making that up.

[yallerdawg]

12. I second that!

Schumer left a job open for a real Democrat!

Senator Grayson?

[Fred Sanders]

13. Like I said, I am not kidding....anytime Grayson posts or asks for money in the future at DU I will make sure

to remind everyone at DU of his NO vote on Iran peace....and to give an earful and NO money.
Daily Kos whip count has him as "leaning NO"....could hardly believe it....what is the deal with him?

Unless Grayson IS a nuclear physicist, then my apologies.

[yallerdawg]

14. I hear ya!

Omaha Steve set up Alan Grayson a DU for Grayson for US Senate account.

Lots of us at DU are looking for real Democrats we can count on!

[Stardust]

18. I'm disappointed with my Rep, too--Brad Sherman (D) CA. I emailed my objection but

judging from his town halls, many of his constituents are probably against it. It blows my mind.

[DesertFlower]

31. i'm in arizona. neither McCain or Flake

will sign, but i'm not surprised. don't expect anything from these repubs.

[randys1]

51. Agree completely

[DesertFlower]

24. i agree. nt

[Fred Sanders]

27. Thank you...I repeat, Mr. Grayson, sir, do not make a huge mistake you will regret.

If you say "nope" to the Iran peace deal and you can we can say nope to much more DU funding.

Religion and politics do not mix. Didn't Intellectual Grayson learn anything from the GOP making them inseparable?

[DesertFlower]

29. well said. nt

[Bubzer]

15. Outstanding!

[wolfie001]

16. This, my friends at DU, is a true, authentic DEMOCRAT!!!

Thank you Congressman Grayson!

[Egnever]

17. I am really starting to hate your posts.

Send me 3 dollars...

[sabrina 1]

19. You must hate all the candidates then. Never got a message from a candidate who didn't have a

donation link.

[Egnever]

37. Yea that's the ticket!

[Enthusiast]

43. Every candidate for office asks for money. Don't they?

[Egnever]

50. Sure but not on the level Alan does

https://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/summary.php?type=C&cid=N00028418&newMem=N&cycle=2014

[Enthusiast]

53. Grayson doesn't look unusal to me.

[Egnever]

58. Did you scroll down to the average fundraising?

He almost doubles it.

With next to nothing to show for it. Sure he barks loud and says things we all like to hear at times.

Meanwhile the largest portion of the money he gets goes not to promoting issues but to more fundraising.

His fundraising is largely done to do more fundraising.

You want to send money to that be my guest. I figured out what he was up to long ago.

[Enthusiast]

61. As I said, I don't subscribe to your take on this issue.

[LanternWaste]

57. Link does not support your premise.

Link does not support your premise. No doubt though, your bias does support it...

[Egnever]

59. How so?

From the link

[rhett o rick]

48. I bet all your candidates are supported by the billionaires and don't

need to get help from us in the 99%.

[Egnever]

49. Haha Alan is one of the billionaires

and a grifter.

He has you fooled though.

[rhett o rick]

52. He is far from a billionaire and in fact his worth pales compared to the over $100 million of the

Clintons. Speaking of fooled, H. Clinton was fooled by a fool and promoted a war killing hundreds of thousands. She doesn't fool me.

[Egnever]

55. Not sure why you think attacking clinton has any effect on me

But good try.

https://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/otherdata.php?cycle=2014&cid=N00028418&type=C

[rhett o rick]

65. So opensecrets says his estimated net worth is between

6 million and 122 million? That's a hell of a spread.

[DesertFlower]

71. hillary won't get money from me either.

she's got enough of her own. i have given a few bucks to bernie.

that being said if hillary is the nominee she will get my vote.

[Enthusiast]

56. Now that is simply untrue. Alan is not a billionaire. I guess we can't trust your assertions.

[Egnever]

62. If that's what you want to run with

it is certainly your prerogative.

Meanwhile while he certainly isn't a Billionaire he is a multi millionaire and I think his divorce proceeding paint a pretty clear picture of who Alan really is.

[rhett o rick]

66. So you've been reading The Star newspaper at the grocery store again. nm

[L0oniX]

64. ^^^this^^^

[DesertFlower]

70. i agree. i'd rather give the money to

planned parenthood or to charity. food banks and other charities need our money more than politicians do.

[lastlib]

20. God, I wish about 500 other legislators had your spine, sir!

We could put an end to this sh!t.

[Fred Sanders]

54. Does Grayson have enough spine to stand up to AIPAC and vote Yea with the world on Iran peace?

[wildbilln864]

21. k & r & thank you Mr Grayson. n/t

[SunSeeker]

22. Good. nt

[riderinthestorm]

[LiberalElite]

26. Thank you. nt

[niyad]

28. thank you

[DesertFlower]

30. you want $3 from me, but you

are not a star member of DU. why not?

how about you give $3 to DU?

[Fred Sanders]

32. Make it $1000 if you vote against the Iran deal, Mr. Grayson, you will have to buy your way out

of that hole you will dig for yourself.

Just some unsolicited advice, please ignore if desired.

[DesertFlower]

34. better take that advise mr. grayson.

[Plucketeer]

46. Alan, I'm with Fred on this

PLEASE vote FOR the deal with Iran - so you can look for money from me as time goes on.

[L0oniX]

33. Endorse Bernie Sanders and I will contribute.

[Pastiche423]

35. +1

They are going to need each other.

[BeanMusical]

38. Oh, well said!

[Enthusiast]

42. Excellent suggestion.

[Admiral Loinpresser]

63. +1,000 n/t

[ffr]

39. A formula for success and yet

other Democrats can't figure out you're methods. Stand up for what's right and show people you're standing up for them.

You deserve to win and you make us proud. Good luck in your senatorial campaign!

[blackspade]

40. Awesome.

Move to KY so I can vote for you.

[Enthusiast]

41. K&R! I hope this post accumulates hundreds of recommendations!

Go, Alan!

Fuck DINOs!

[Omaha Steve]

[hamsterjill]

45. Thank you for standing up for common sense!

We appreciate your steadfastness.

[Duval]

47. Will do so gladly!

Thank you for standing up for women's rights.

[obnoxiousdrunk]

60. Vote for the Iran deal

and I donate $9.00 ... deal or no deal.

[smirkymonkey]

67. Thank YOU!

[DesertFlower]

68. what's the big deal? i can't imagine

any democrat voting to defund planned parenthood. give the money directly to planned parenthood.

mr. grayson -- why haven't you given a few bucks to DU?
