Email sent out by White House tonight: This is an interpretation of that Email. Perhaps Californians are finally beginning to get it. latimesblogs.latimes.com

Bipartisan proposals are code for tax increases. Reagan had a tax increase that Democrats promised $3 of spending cuts for every new dollar in taxes. The cuts never happened, but the taxes did. Democrats made the same promise of $3 of spending cuts for every new dollar in taxes again to Bush 41. The cuts never happened, but the taxes did and Bush 41 even lost reelection for breaking his pledge of no new taxes. Democrats are liars and once they have their tax increases they develop amnesia and forget about the cuts. I have an idea, how about Democrats start making good on the spending cuts they have ALREADY PROMISED. The history on these tax deals are in an article KLP posted. Message 27488742 * * *

Friend -- A couple weeks ago, President Obama sat down for lunch with six of the campaign's summer organizers to thank them for their work and share some of the lessons he learned when he was a first-time community organizer himself. He made the time because organizing is at the heart of this movement. It's how we're building our operation from the ground up over the next 14 months. As we pause this weekend to celebrate the working men and women in our country who fought for the right to organize, it's worth taking a few minutes to listen to what the President had to say -- and think about how we'll organize this campaign in the months to come. Check out this video from the President's lunch to hear him speak in his own words about what it means to organize. Then will you sign up to be a volunteer for 2012 in Your Town Inserted Here? Labor Day has added significance in the political calendar -- it's seen as the moment when the race for the Republican nomination will really heat up. That means we need to be prepared for even more false attacks on the President's record as our prospective opponents try to build their own campaigns. But we'll win this election the same way we won the last one: through people stepping up locally, taking the lead in the communities they know best. Some supporters will dedicate months to this campaign, while others will pop in for a few volunteer shifts here and there. Any time and expertise you can share helps grow this organization -- and brings people together to make our country greater. That's a strategy our prospective opponents won't follow. Watch the video, then sign up to volunteer in your community: Our job from now until November 2012 is to keep working to bring more people into the political process. And that begins and ends with organizing. Hope you have a great Labor Day weekend. Jeremy Jeremy Bird National Field Director Obama for America
