DO IT NOW AND PASS IT ON!

You will recall that Jerry Falwell claimed that 9/11 was brought on us as the result of gays and abortions in our country. (!!!) Now televangelist/Porky Pig impersonator Pat Robertson comes with this bullshit: the threat posed by liberal federal judges is "probably more serious than a few bearded terrorists who fly into buildings." I happen to think that these born again right wingers are as backward and dangerous as fanatical muslims. Please understand that with a republican president and congress, the judicial branch is the last hope of any voice of reason in the US. You want your rights? More conservative judges will enable repubs to pulverize civil rights for decades and it may take decades to reverse the damage. Express your outrage and get involved by signing this petition and passing it on. NOW, fuckers!


Subject: Tell your friends: Frist and DeLay Should Reject Pat Robertson

Dear friend:

On Sunday morning, Christian Coalition founder Rev. Pat Robertson told TV viewers nation-wide that the threat posed by liberal federal judges "probably more serious than a few bearded terrorists who fly into buildings."

Robertson's statement is only the most outrageous example of a growing effort from the extreme right to whip up an intense fear and hatred of American judges. The strategy is designed to build support for the Republican "nuclear" scheme to break the rules and stack the courts - and it is poisonous to our democracy. Republican leaders must reject these comments and end the intimidation now.

Please sign the MoveOn PAC petition today demanding that Sen Bill Frist and Rep. Tom Delay publicly condemn Robertson's comments and stop intimidating judges.
