MORE BUSH LIES in a campaign letter to my email addy--how can I make them

GO AWAY????????????????????


Everywhere I go, I remind people of our country's ability to transfer challenge into opportunity in the past three and a half years. It is the President's job to confront problems, to speak clearly and lead with strength. And that is how I will continue to lead this country.

We came to office with the stock market in decline and our economy headed toward recession. But we acted. We delivered historic tax relief: Over 1.4 million new jobs have been created since August and our economy is the fastest growing of any industrialized nation.

We saw war and grief arrive on a quiet September morning. While we comforted those who had lost family or friends, we pursued the terrorist enemy across the world. We've captured or killed many key leaders of al Qaeda and the rest know there is no cave or hole deep enough for terrorists to hide from American justice.

In Iraq, we acted to remove the threat of Saddam Hussein and freed 25 million Iraqis from the tyranny of a madman. Now illegal militias, foreign fighters and terrorists are trying to take control by force what they could never gain by the ballot. They know a free Iraq will be a major advance in our War on Terror. But we will defend Iraq and defeat these enemies.

Because we acted, nations like Libya got the message and voluntarily disarmed. Because we acted, an example of democracy is rising at the very heart of the Middle East. Because we acted, the world is freer, and America is more secure.

In the fight against terror we worked with Congress to pass the Patriot Act and brought down the artificial wall so law enforcement and intelligence officers could talk with each other to help prevent future attacks. We are working hard to keep terrorist attacks limited and outside of America's homeland.

At home, we have left more money in the hands that earned it by passing the largest tax relief in a generation. By spending and investing and helping create new jobs, the American people used their money far better than the government would have.

We passed the No Child Left Behind Act to reform an education system that has failed the neediest students in our nation's classrooms. Every child must learn to read and no child will be left behind.

But there is more work to do and as the campaign enters the summer, I need your help again. Your continued support today will mean the difference in a close election. I hope you will make a donation of $2,000, $1,000, $500, $250 or even $100 or $50 today.

The man who sits in the Oval Office will set the course of the War on Terror and the direction of our economy. So there is a lot at stake in this coming November election.

My opponent has built up quite a record in nearly 20 years in Washington, D.C. In fact, he's been in Washington long enough to take both sides on nearly every issue. He reminds me of a saying we have about the weather in Texas -- If you don't like it at the moment, just wait a few minutes...it'll change.

That is no way to lead a nation, particularly when so much is on the line. My opponent hasn't offered much in the way of strategies to win the War on Terror or to expand prosperity. But he has certainly got his liberal allies all stirred up to attack me.

These groups, funded by large "soft money" donations from wealthy left-wing liberals have been running television commercials against me for months now.

That's why I need your help. Federal law allows gifts up to $2,000 per person or $4,000 per couple: I would greatly appreciate it if you'd send $2,000, $1,000, $500, $250 or even $100 or $50 today.

Pam, we still have work to do. We must win the War on Terror; the world is counting on America. We must spread prosperity to every part of our nation. We must work together over the next four years to make America a safer, more prosperous and better place -- and encourage the spirit of service and compassion that makes America the finest country on the face of the Earth.

History has given us great challenges. Let us welcome these challenges and let our actions testify to the greatness of America. Thank you for your friendship and your prayers. May God continue to bless our nation.

Sincerely,

1. Most e-mail services will allow you to block
selected addresses. Use your service's spam filter for this crap if they don't have a way to block and bounce specific emails back.

That's how you make them go away, at least from your email.

3. Yuck!
And the e-mail uses your name, too, implying you're his friend or something! That to me is the creepiest part.

I haven't gotten any love notes from the RNC, yet. They should start turning up soon, though. I did get them during the last presidential election cycle.

Hope you can successfully rid yourself of this spam!

5. Thanks...that was funnier than hell
Is that satire or is it serious? If the people who wrote that(clearly not Shrub-too cogent) beleive it, they are seriously deluded. And we need a new government program...No Idiot Left Behind. This would be for adults who fail to have enough common sense to know that what is in the letter is BS. They would get a crash course in critical thinking skills and FAUX news desensitization training.

7. If its real and people are buying that crap
we are in real trouble here in the old U S of A. Do poor people read this and think, "thank god Shrub is in the White house and gave the rich a huge tax break while my kids eat pork and beans out of the can and smack ramen?"
