Reeds Campaign Uses Michele Bachmann's ACU Fundraising Letter Against Bachmann

From the Reed campaign:

Bachmann courting conservatives, ignoring her constituents
Dear ,

Recently, a shocking fundraising letter came to light that goes to the heart of Michele Bachmann’s priorities. Writing to raise funds for the American Conservative Union Strikeforce, Bachmann used blatantly false and heated language to instill fear and anger among conservatives to raise a few bucks.

Bachmann wrote, “Will you let Barack Obama KILL conservatism?” and claimed that Obama wants to “annihilate” conservatives. Even if you disagree with Obama’s policies, you know that her accusations are blatantly false. Everyone knows that the President has offered to work with both sides of the political aisles and even traveled to Baltimore to meet with GOP members of Congress to let them know he will work with them.

Bachmann skipped the opportunity to meet with the President – instead she chose to raise money in California. Even a member of the Republican leadership, Mike Pence, said that he welcomed the dialogue with the President; but Bachmann was too busy with politics to attend the historic event.

It’s clear that Bachmann is not interested in working together to get things done.

Aren’t you tired of Bachmann’s empty threats and inability to get things done? Please contribute today to help us bring sensible leadership to Congress.

Bachmann’s rhetoric tends to get her on Fox news, but it hasn’t done much to create jobs, stop home foreclosures or get affordable health care for her constituents.

We need leaders in Congress who will solve problems for their constituents, rather than courting the national spotlight. With Maureen Reed, we will have someone with a lifetime of bringing people together to solve problems.

In these hard economic times, Bachmann will continue to deny, delay, and obstruct any Democratic idea not on merits, but simply because the idea came from a Democrat.

When elected, Maureen Reed’s only priority will be representing the people of the 6th district. We cannot afford to have a Congresswoman who places raising her national profile before the needs of the district.

Whether you can give $100, $50, or $25, please consider a contribution to our campaign today.

Sincerely,

Jason Isaacson
