Specter Takes $6.5 Billion for His Pet Project

Send a Message to Specter, Snowe, and Collins That They Won’t Forget!


Dear American:

In the next few days, Congress will vote on a stimulus program that will now cost you and me at least $789 billion.

The New York Times called it the largest economic-spending package in history.

It is.

It is also the largest pork-and-welfare spending spree in history.

It is simply shocking that Congress did not hold proper hearings for this plan.

Public input was not only censored — it was ignored as Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority Leader Harry Reid worked feverishly to slam this political payoff called a stimulus down our throats.

And the Republicans in the House and Senate were completely cut out except for three senators who defected to vote for the Democratic plan.

Their names are well known: Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania and Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe from Maine.

New revelations of political wheeling and dealing that helped get these liberal Republicans to betray their colleagues and parties are emerging.

For example, The New York Times reported that Arlen Specter insisted that the “stimulus” include $6.5 billion for “medical research.”

Yes, that’s $6.5 billion of your money.

Why so much?

The paper says Specter has cancer and he wants more funding for research.

No matter how worthy the cause, Specter’s receipt of a $6.5 billion political payoff proves that this bill was not about stimulus and jobs, but about political shenanigans.

We must hold these Republicans to account.

We at The National Republican Trust have already warned disloyal Republicans like Specter that we will support any Republican challenger in their next election.

And we also plan on exposing their actions.

Cleverly, President Barack Obama and Democrats in Congress stampeded this “stimulus” bill through Congress to prevent opposition from organizing and responding to this shameful waste of taxpayer money.

No matter — we at The Republican National Trust will soon unleash radio ads exposing Specter, Collins, and Snowe, as well as key Democrats who should have stopped this bill.

We need your help to run these ads to send these senators a message — Go Here Now.

Democrats’ Next Target: Rush, Hannity, Savage, Beck

It is critically important to remember that we will have many battles ahead.

Obama, along with Pelosi and Reid, are planning the most radical agenda ever in American history.

In fact, just this week Democratic Sen. Tom Harkin called for the return of the Fairness Doctrine.

This sham is nothing more than an effort to gag Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Glenn Beck, and hundreds of talk-radio hosts around the nation.

We now know that the Democrats have the votes to pass radical legislation like the Fairness Doctrine.

We need to stop them now before it’s too late.

If the liberals in Congress close down talk radio, they know they will control the flow of information to Americans.

They will be free to pass the most radical legislation ever, such as giving amnesty to 12 million illegal aliens.

This is why our work is so important at The National Republican Trust PAC.

Recently, CNN called us the “powerful National Republican Trust” -— and we have been cited by hundreds of other media including Fox News, CNN, and others.

During the last election cycle we were the third-largest political action committee in the U.S.

The big media know just how influential we were.

During the recent presidential election, our ads exposing the Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Obama came late, but had a devastating effect. Exit polls showed that almost every undecided voter went for John McCain.

In the special Georgia race, we raised close to $1.4 million and helped elect Republican Saxby Chambliss in a landslide.

We Can Still Expose Specter, Snowe, and Collins

We now have a huge battle ahead.

We need your help to keep Republicans in Congress in line with the principles of the party — and to win over conservative Democrats.

Our plan is to simply expose senators like Specter, Collins, and Snowe when they defect to the Democrats and betray their party and constituents.

In days we will be rolling out radio ads in each of these senator’s home states, as well as nationally, exposing their support of the stimulus.

Let me be clear: This won’t stop the stimulus from passing.

But it will send these senators and others a message.

They won’t be able to support Obama’s radical agenda with their constituents at home not knowing about it.

We need to continue our fight.

Fox News analyst Dick Morris says The National Republican Trust is at the vanguard of keeping and restoring the GOP to greatness. He says we are like the Democrats’ MoveOn, but better and more effective.

Please help us keep up this fight — donate today — Go Here Now.

Thank you.

Yours for America,

Scott Wheeler
Executive Director

P.S. As I write this, new details about the compromise stimulus deal keep emerging. GM is set to get a $10 billion tax break — but nothing for other companies. And despite the fact that housing is in crisis, the deal cuts in half a tax credit for new home buyers to a measly $8,000. It’s an outrage what is happening in Washington. We need to hold our leaders accountable. Help me and The National Republican Trust PAC do just that today. Time is critical — Go Here Now.

Well I don't mind if they really do medical research. I don't like the dog park and Frisbee tournament court though.

Hey, they can start by refunding the $50.000 we lost in our retirement account. Some retirees lost so much they don't know what they will do. I feel sorry for them, not the politicians who misused our money.
