More RNC gay-baiting pamphlets

September 22, 2004

Yet another disgraceful Republican pamphlet we saw in West Virginia has shown up in Arkansas.

"The version I have posted was mailed out in Arkansas -- so this template, which Ed Gillespie said he knew nothing about, is being used in multiple states."
[Washington Notes - Steven Clemons 09-22-04]

Is this why the Republican National Committee requested churches turn over the addresses of their congregates?

The instruction sheet circulated by the Bush-Cheney campaign to religious volunteers lists 22 "duties" to be performed by specific dates. By July 31, for example, volunteers are to "send your Church Directory to your State Bush-Cheney '04 Headquarters or give [it] to a BC04 Field Rep" and "Talk to your Pastor about holding a Citizenship Sunday and Voter Registration Drive."
[Churchgoers Get Direction From Bush Campaign - Washington Post - 07-01-04]

Notice the Republican National Committee's Washington, DC return address. Either Ed Gillespie is lying or someone is committing mail fraud.
