CLASS WARFARE

The elimination of the middle class is the goal of the GOP.

What a different picture of America we will see when the top economic elite 1 % rule over the poor 99 % of the population.

Many have said this economic struggle does not effect me. Now we are hearing a different

cry as teachers, firemen, policemen and unions all over America see the attack

taking away wages, pensions, health insurance, job security and not to mention dignity.

This is what Class Warfare looks like

IT'S CALLED TAKE FROM THE POOR AND GIVE TO THE RICH

You still think it does not effect you. No one is safe unless you are in the top 1 % of the population and listed as the economic elite.

HAD ENOUGH

WE HAVE KNOWN THE ENEMY AND TRIED TO EXPOSE THEM FOR WHAT THEY REALLY WERE.

NOW YOU KNOW THE ENEMY

Ask yourself one simple question.

Why does the GOP deceive the voters to get a majority of voters elect them when they only plan to serve 1 % of the voters?

Does this sound like the America we once knew.

STAND UP AMERICA, HIT THE STREETS AND MAKE YOUR VOICES KNOWN

THANK GOD WE STILL HAVE THE RIGHTS TO VOTE

But they are working on that. Look at Michigan.

The Governor has been given unlimited power to throw out elected official in County and Cities.

At his whim he can remove elected officials and appoint managers if he says they are not managing their budgets.

Dear Reader,

We all know the bald eagle is America's national bird, but many people forget Ben Franklin lobbied for a different choice; Franklin preferred the turkey.

"In truth the Turkey is in Comparison a much more respectable Bird, and withal a true original Native of America . . . He is besides, though a little vain & silly, a Bird of Courage, and would not hesitate to attack a Grenadier of the British Guards who should presume to invade his Farm Yard with a red Coat on."

Had Franklin got his wish, the modern American Thanksgiving table might look far different than it does today, as would the English language. We certainly wouldn’t be calling people of questionable morals "turkeys."

But Franklin lost the argument, and as a result there are plenty of turkeys in Washington D.C. these days. So, we figured we’d highlight some of the best of the worst with CREW’s first ever Turkey Awards!

First Place:

The Federal Elections Commission:

The FEC gets our Turkey Award for not taking action this election season, despite watching millions of dollars funneled into political advertisements. Coporations and shadowy fly-by-night organizations spent vast amounts of money this year without disclosing their donors.

Second Place:

The House Ethics Committee:

Just last week the House Ethics Committee found one of our Most Corrupt - Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) - guilty of 11 ethics violations. But did the committee miss the fact that there are 18 members of the House on the list coming back in January for the 112th Congress?

Tie for Third Place:

Sen. David Vitter (R-LA) and Sen. John Ensign (R-NV):

Why on earth are two of the most corrupt members of the Senate not only currently sitting in office, but returning to Washington next year? Sen. Vitter will be returning to Congress despite a checkered past that includes soliciting prostitutes and misusing taxpayer funds to assist a staffer convicted of crimes. Meanwhile, Sen. Ensign has a closet full of skeletons, and is under investigation by the Department of Justice.

It’s because of supporters like you that CREW has been able to hunt down corrupt turkeys of all forms in Washington, as well as unmask those trying to influence elections with corporate cash. We need your help to tell the new Congress, loud and clear, that a stronger ethics process is vital. You can continue to help us build a better Washington by supporting CREW.

Thank you for all of your help this year,

Melanie Sloan

Executive Director CREW

Give us Liberty or give us Death

That is what it is all about. The Vote!

Your vote counts. In this time when corporate money flows freely into Republican Campaign funds and requires no accountability as to how much a corporation gives.

Really we have no way to protect our country from money from other countries influencing our elections. Thank God we still have a right to vote a secret ballot.

This may be the only right we still have protected. Study the issues and make your vote go for the rights given us in the Constitution. Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
