Under Attack: Sen. Robert C. Byrd

[mcscajun]

Check the display ad on one of the DU pages -- there's an link there that'll take you to Senator Byrd's website. I've already donated -- let's help to keep this statesman where he belongs: In the United States Senate.

"The Beltway Republicans have launched the first attack ads of the 2006 campaign and they are spending $55,000 to smear me in my home state.

These slick, out-of-state ads rely on falsehood and trickery. They do not tell the truth.

I will not sit quietly and let these national Republican ads lie to the people of my state. False, misleading, and deceptive ads will not go unanswered.

Please help us raise $55,000 in the next two weeks to respond to these ugly attacks.

Thank you and God Bless,"

Robert C. Byrd
United States Senator
