Just a few days ago Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Chair of the Democratic National Committee, did what I thought was unthinkable—even for her. On live television, Schultz publicly and wrongly blamed the Tea Party movement for last year’s Tucson shooting which resulted in the deaths of six people and seriously injured Rep. Gabby Giffords:
“I hesitate to place blame, but I have noticed it take a very precipitous turn towards edginess and lack of civility with the growth of the Tea Party movement," said Wasserman Schultz.
Tell Rep. Wasserman Schultz she’s wrong and DEMAND your apology now!
I think Rep. Wasserman Schultz’s move to score cheap political points by exploiting a national tragedy is the real case of a “lack of civility.” And millions of Americans agree. Public outcries since her vile remark have been pouring in, and that’s why I’ve started a petition for the American people to demand an apology from Rep. Wasserman Schultz and stop the DNC’s lies.Stop the DNC’s lies by demanding your apology now.
As Chairman of FreedomWorks, a national organization that helps educate, train, and mobilize conservative grassroots activists, I felt it was time for us to set the record straight. FreedomWorks is made up of over 1.5 million members, and having spoken at Tea Party events around the country I know one thing: the Tea Party movement is made up of peaceful, patriotic Americans who are concerned about the future of our country.
Defend your fellow Americans and demand your apology here!
But Rep. Wasserman Schultz and her Democratic cohorts continue to stoop lower and lower to defame the Tea Party movement in a effort to get Barack Obama re-elected. Even while the Obama Administration supports Occupy Wall Street, a divisive and violent movement that has defecated on police cars and destroyed public property.We must fight back against the Democrats’ hypocrisy. Help me create the grassroots pressure necessary to stop Obama’s cronies from spreading their lies. Click here to demand your apology!
Our goal is to get as many Americans as possible to sign the petition. Please forward this message to as many people as you can and if you use Facebook or Twitter, please share the petition there as well.
You and I know Jared Lee Loughner, the troubled young man who caused the tragedy in Tucson, had nothing to do with the Tea Party movement. Responding to Wasserman Schultz’s claim, the Washington Examiner wrote, “Jared Lee Loughner was eventually discovered to be a mentally unstable loner with no immediate partisan agenda and a serious alcohol problem.”
But the Democrats don’t let the facts get in the way of their Election year rhetoric. Let’s remind them that the truth matters. Sign the petition.
Thank you.
In Liberty,
Dick Armey
Chairman, FreedomWorks
P.S. Once you’ve signed your petition, please try to send this email to at least three friends you think will take action too. Thanks for your help!
