RE: Sara Palin

This morning I ran across the e-mail message below in the trash folder on my mail server. Based on the e-mail header, the message originates from the democrats.org domain which I am assuming is related to the Democratic party. My response and the original email are below. I'm quite certain those who relate to the original e-mail message will not understand the reason for my disgust.

Mitch,

I received the following SPAM message on my server in the trash folder. As the owner of the fla*****.com domain I can assure you the email address "DALY@FLA*****.COM" does not exist and is fraudulent. Remove this address from any future e-mailings and contact the person(s) using this e-mail address by whatever other means you have to communicate with them and request they stop using this fraudulent email account.

I am always disappointed to see politically motivated nonsense messages like this one. These serve no purpose but to spread misinformation. Misguided hate mongering like this message are intended to excite hatred and are destroying our country. I will forward your message and this response to my friends and family to express my disgust, which was probably not the intent of your original message. I'll also post this message to my blog.

If you have an opinion express it, don't attack other people personally or their opinions. If your opinion is not supportable on it's own, then shut up.

Thanks

The Democratic Party

Kerry --

Right now, Sarah Palin is on a highly publicized, nationwide book tour, attacking President Obama and his plan for health reform at every turn.

It's dangerous. Remember, this is the person who coined the term "Death Panels" -- and opened the flood gates for months of false attacks by special interests and partisan extremists.

Whatever lie comes next will be widely covered by the media, then constantly echoed by right-wing attack groups and others who are trying to defeat reform.
