It's time to fight back.

The Democratic Party is partnering with MoveOn.org, People for the American Way, Campaign for America's Future, and dozens of other groups representing millions of Americans to organize a massive public mobilization. On Wednesday, May 14, join us by calling and emailing your representatives in Congress to let them know that the majority of Americans oppose more irresponsible tax cuts that go overwhelmingly to the wealthiest sliver of Americans.

Then there is a John Kery connection:

Seeing as how both of these items were before the actual campaigning started, I don't think they have much of a point.
Oh really? Where is that rule?

What it says to is this: John Kerry and the DNC are very connected to MoveOn.org and MediaFund. They have connections there. They have former campaign managers there. They have big donor supporters there. And they have "partnered" together on issues. It doesn't matter that it was a year ago. I don't think that's allowed. If you can prove to me that it is....then please do so. And if that's the case...then why are the complainers about the Swit Boat vets saying that they guys have contributed to Bush in the past and say that it matters now? See the hypocrisy here?
