1. This is the one I am sending...
"On December 3, 2003, America watched helplessly as President Bush devastated families, ruined communities and took lives. The President understands the necessity to risk communities, not only by fire, but also disease and by infestation of insects. As a nation, we have watched helplessly Congress aid in the destruction of federal, state, tribal and local officials. As a result, President Bush’s catastrophic policy, will endanger, our nation for generations to come. President Bush’s vision of fire has become the law that will reduce the lives citizens, and threaten communities."

It was like making poetry with those fridge magnets!

2. Standard GOP practice...
Why spend the time and money developing a real grassroots campaign when you can flood the local papers across the nation with "astro turf"

What are the chances the editors of the local papers are going to validate the letters ?? Slim to none.

Just another GOP method of spreading lies.....

Shameful

3. They Actually Call It Grassroots -
Writing A Form Letter hardly constitutes being part of a grassroots effort.

Take action and join the most important part of the 2004 election: the grassroots team to re-elect President Bush. Our action center gives you the tools to join the Bush team and help spread President Bush's positive message to your friends, family and your community.

5. it is grassroots propaganda
the biggest accomplishment repugs have is their ability to make people vote against their own self-interest and the future of America. How big a stretch would it be to actually have them PARTICIPATE in the propaganda effort?
