That's what they call themselves. :rolleyes:

From: DNC Rapid Response Team
Subject: Fight Swift Boating

Friend —

Yesterday, you learned about the right-wing’s latest attack: extremist Jerome Corsi and his book of the same old smears and lies.

This morning, when asked about the book, all John McCain could say about Corsi’s outrageously false attacks was, “Gotta keep your sense of humor.” Despite pledging to run a respectful campaign, McCain is just standing by while Corsi and his publisher, former Dick Cheney aide Mary Matalin, poison this presidential race.

Right now, you can take the next step by pushing back on Corsi, the media, and John McCain.

Tackle this smear campaign head on. The Obama research team released a 41-page rebuttal called “Unfit for Publication,” refuting Corsi’s rehashed distortions point by point, leaving no smear unanswered.

Arm yourself with the facts and write a letter to your local newspapers telling them to do their job by debunking this kind of garbage. And remind them that John McCain should honor his word by stepping up and denouncing this kind of low road politics:

The right-wing smear machine is in full force — blasting out Corsi’s stale fabrications far and wide to a media that’s been eager to pick it up. In just three days, Corsi’s made front page news in both the New York Times and Washington Post.

The media are not playing their role as watchdogs, and they’re letting McCain off the hook as he allows Corsi’s despicable lies to drag this race into the gutter.

The Obama campaign has posted the full truth online so you have the tools to fight back in your community and local papers.

Can you write a letter to the editor exposing Jerome Corsi and his book for what they really are — another hack job by a desperate right-wing fabricator?

In 2004, Corsi helped launch the Swift Boat smear campaign with a book of distortions and lies he wrote about John Kerry. This time Democrats won’t be Swift Boated.

Keep up the good fight,

DNC Rapid Response Team

Whine whine whine whine whine....

Don't see any refutation of the allegations and McCain isn't so omniscient that he can "allow" Corsi to write a book.:rolleyes:

They weren't denouncing any "low road politics" when they character assassinated HRC for 5 months. Whatever.

Exactly. Where were they then? Stealing votes and scaring old people at the polls.

Does anyone esle think that the DNC's "Rapid Response Team" is a rip off of PUMA style politics?

Are they copying us?

mesofree, it wouldn't be surprising. After all, BHO copied all of Hillary's policies. Status quo.

This line from the e-mail cracked me up:

Do you all realize how many dimwitted obama supporters are looking for the address to the editor/publisher of Corsi's book as we speak? And when they find it, (its Threshold, by the way) I'm just picturing all these people writing letters addressed to the "editor" at Threshold.....

The more they whine the more "ObamaNation" gets promoted...No. 1 at Amazon.... :)

Wait, McCain is now supposed to defend Obama against Corsi's book? Or maybe he should have prevented the publication of the book? Or held Corsi down so he couldn't write it in the first place? This is ludicrous.

They sure are making a big deal about that book. Methinks they doth protest ...

Otherwise, they would ignore it.

Evidently too busy to notice what was happening to Hillary, Democracy and women in general!:eek:

I love it, obviously the new books are having the desired effect. Great response from McCain, BTW.

They didn't help Hillary why should I help them protect a man I am not supporting for President. They really are dense.

I bought the book. It tells many things about him that the dnc DOES NOT want the public to know. I am glad that it is doing so well on sales. I recieved an email from Howard Dean that sounded almost hysterical. He ranted that we must tell everyone we know to not read the book. At last we can understand what Obama ment by "change." It is detailed quite well in the book. :eek: :eek:

Ask them to denounce Mr.Dean's racist statements.

I think within a few weeks Dean's going to eat the words "leaving no smear unanswered".... Therefore logic tells me to compare what you read with BHO's rebuttal and when you find something that BHO doesn't address, it's going to get interesting to say the least.

I remember something along these lines for Hillary, so yes, all good ideas tha Obama has, comes from someone else.
