In a three-page memo to top Democrats, Streisand accused them of being ``paralyzed, demoralized and depressed'' since the election of President Bush. ``We have a president who stole the presidency through family ties, arrogance and intimidation, employing Republican operatives to exercise the tactics of voter fraud by disenfranchising thousands of blacks, elderly Jews and other minorities,'' Streisand wrote last week in a letter signed simply ``Barbra.''

Let's not allow the Republicans to take away the gains we've made.''
