Subject:Send Harry Reid a Postcard Today! Dear SI reader, The Obama Democrats in the U.S. Senate are at it again. Frustrated by lack of support for their absurd, economy-killing scheme to raise taxes on every American and throttle energy availability known as "Cap-and- Trade," they are opportunistically taking advantage of the tragic Gulf oil spill to push it back to the top of their disastrous socialist agenda. Not satisfied with the massive growth of Big Government they have imposed upon the American taxpayer after the "Stimulus," takeovers of private enterprise, and the atrocious seizure of our health care freedoms, they are desperate to squeeze even more income and liberty from our citizens with their greedy assault on energy production and use. Senate Democrat Leader Harry Reid, with the blessing of President Obama, has said he wants a Cap-and-Trade Bill by the end of July. He has informed his committee chairs to look for every possible way to extract more punishing taxes from energy producers -- who will be forced to lay off workers or pass along the higher costs to consumers, already staggered by the Obama Democrats' economy-crippling dithering and spending. And Washington's leading Cap-and-Trade proponent, Sen. John Kerry, couldn't be happier, saying, "this is just what we needed with Congress coming back into session...just as we saw with health care, when the president throws down the gauntlet, and puts his prestige on the line and puts the full weight of the White House behind it, we can do big things." Big things, like foisting yet another oppressive and unnecessary leftist boondoggle on the overburdened backs of the American taxpayer. alex, enough is enough, and I need you to do two things for me right now: Tell Senator Reid not to use the tragedy in the Gulf as an excuse to further the Obama Democrats' leftist agenda by sending him a personalized e-postcard today; and, Help our Party stop Harry Reid, John Kerry, and the rest of the Obama Democrats from doing any more damage to our economy and our freedom by stepping forward to support our work by making a special 2010 Mid-Term Election contribution to the RNC today. Your contribution of $25, $50, $100, $500 or more to the Republican National Committee today will make sure we can get the truth about the Obama Democrats' conniving energy tax scheme out past the liberal media filter and directly to the American people. It also helps Republicans in Congress marshal the resistance they need to hold waffling Democrats accountable and defeat this cynical power grab once and for all. The time is now to draw the line -- no more leftist power grabs. Help us stop Harry Reid's assault on our prosperity by sending your e-postcard to Harry Reid and making an online contribution now.
