Liberal Base Wild About Harry
(CNSNews.com) - Sen. Harry Reid's decision to force the Senate into a secret session has infuriated Republicans, but it has rallied the party's liberal base. Democrat websites are making it easy for liberals to send thank-you notes to Senate Minority Leader Reid, who forced the Senate into closed session on Tuesday to discuss the alleged manipulation of pre-war intelligence on Iraq. The Democratic National Committee urged visitors to its website to "make a special donation" to the party - then "send a note of thanks to Harry Reid asking him to keep up the fight.""
Howard Dean sent me a e-mail praising Reid and urging me to send money. You'd think the whole thing was just a fundraising stunt. Oh, right...
Members of the online community DemocraticUnderground.com were asked to sign a letter to Sen. Reid, applauding his courage and offering "our heartfelt thanks and enthusiastic support" for his actions on the Senate floor. On Tuesday, the letter said, "the courage we activists have sought so desperately from the Democrats made itself thunderously evident" in Reid's actions. "For us, it feels like springtime after a long, cold, hard winter.""
