Email from Mike Huckabee re: My Friend Elizabeth Dole

No links included here because I wouldn't want to be responsible for anyone actually contributing, but this is just too funny not to post. She was a travesty as a Senator "from" NC to begin with, and deserves all the debt she gets.
I have a favor to ask regarding my very special friend, Elizabeth Dole. The Nation lost a great hard working advocate for conservative values when her race was swept up in the Obama tide. The Democratic Party spent $12 million to defeat her in North Carolina and special interest groups spent millions more.
The Obama campaign opened 50 field offices with 400 paid staff and 21,000 volunteers, all geared to three weeks of early voting. North Carolina had the biggest increase in voter turnout of any state in the nation, a reflection of the huge amounts of money poured into the state.
I hope you will join me in assisting her with a generous contribution today to retire her debt of $356,043. I believe it would be a travesty if she were left with a debt after all her hard work as a public servant.
Elizabeth has been a pioneer, breaking many glass ceilings for women in her career spanning 40 years. She has spent her life in service to America and the world, and while she lost an election, she has not lost her willingness or ability to continue to serve for the greater good of our nation.
To do that, she needs to conclude old business and that is why your help to retire her campaign debt is so important.
Sincerely,
Mike Huckabee
I do not think he knows what that word means.....
A travesty is having 47 million uninsured citizens of the United States of America and a Republican Party that is fighting tooth and nail to make sure it stays that way.
Asking hard working Americans to help a super-wealthy politician pay off $400,000. worth of campaign debts is tragic. I guess since both words start with "tr", Mike just got a little mixed up. Republicans do that a lot.
North Carolina. Turning the South Blue!
True, indeed
I ran across a website that tells us just exactly how many people are without health insurance in America and more importantly who these people are. It also tells us why having so many uninsured is such a travisty and that even people that are offered health insurance through their employer they cannot always afford the premiums required of them.
It dispells many of the things that are being said by those against a public option because it shows that the illegal hispanic population not having health insurance is pretty much insignificant considering "native and nationalized" citizens as described in the link.
I wanted to present it here because it is a good read in my opinion.
