Let's all support John Conyers- the Right is in attack mode

[undeterred]

I just got this email:

Help Me Fight Back Against the Republican Attack Machine

Today, I am officially announcing my intent to seek reelection. I have never before sent a general email asking for help, but the stakes are simply too high at this point in our Nation's history. "It would not be a surprise in the coming months if we hear more from the GOP about Conyers than about Osama bin Laden"

Because I have been so outspoken in repeatedly speaking out against the excesses and abuses of the Bush Administration, and because the right wing fears that I will be chosen to chair the House Judiciary Committee if Democrats assume the Majority, the GOP hit man has come after me.

Help Me Fight Back

Karl Rove has identified me as the number one target of the Republican attack machine. I need your help to help raise the resources to get reelected, to help get our message of accountability and checks and balances, and to fight back against the vicious right wing smear machine, which will only intensify in the coming weeks and months.

Help Me Lead the Charge Against this Administration's Abuse of Power

Thank you as always, for your dedication to democracy and liberty.

John Conyers, Jr.

1. He embodies so much of what this group is about...

So often we have spoken and loudly praised this man's impressive drive and courageous risks. Time to pull out your wallet and show true support to this patriot. As they say "Talk is cheap"... Signify on your donation that you are a member of DU and let him know where our Appreciation is coming from. He needs to know that his strategy to involve the net and blogs in his outreach is a sound and effective one.

11. And while we're at it, someone needs to neuter the anti-Dem Joe Klein....

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ari-melber/joe-klein-plays-the-conye_b_21153.html

"... Klein turns to bashing Conyers as "foolishly incendiary" and an embarrassment to Democrats. Klein does not provide any evidence for these harsh attacks. In fact, he only mentions two other things that even relate to Conyers: He has "threatened impeachment hearings" and an anonymous U.S. Representative said he is more likely to talk about victimization than younger black politicians. That's it."

15. Conyers: Head of the Judiciary Committee in '06

John Conyers with subpoena power is their worst nightmare. He's the last man they want in there, so they're gonna pull all the stops before November to defeat him.

If they would investigate their own instead of fighting those who want to, then we would be getting somewhere!

[undeterred]

17. Yeah, it's like they just noticed him too

He is my motivation to work for the Dems this year.
