"Our people in uniform have been subjected to these cynical and pernicious falsehoods day in and day out ... and back home a few opportunists are suggesting they were sent into battle for a lie."
That's what the Vice President says about you.
Dick Cheney has made himself the name-caller in chief, referring to critics of the forged White House case for warpeople like you and meas not only "dishonest and reprehensible," but also "corrupt and shameless." He's the perfect man to say that. He knows "corrupt and shameless" personally. And on Monday he'll prove it again ... by keynoting a gala fundraiser for indicted congressman and GOP machine boss Tom DeLay.

Updated: Please recommend this diary so more people can see it!
That's the same Tom DeLay who said, "I am the federal government." Unfortunately, he wasn't far from the truth. Money talks in politics, and Tom DeLay has bankrolled 29 Republican candidates in 2005 through his political action committee. Some of those Republicans are running Washington right now.
If we want a government that responds to usa government of the peoplewe have to take it back. Tom DeLay and Dick Cheney need to hear that we're sick of their corrupt and shameless party in a language they understand: cold, hard cash.
Let's put our money where our mouths are. Take on Cheney and DeLay, donate to DFA today:

While they toast each other at their $1,000-a-plate surf-and-turf dinner on Monday, we have our own asset: thousands of us rolling up our sleeves, chipping in what we can, and putting a stop to them.
That's why we've brought back the bat.
Over the last two years DFA has supported more than 850 progressive candidates with an average contribution of $1,200. With $34,800 we can match Tom DeLay's 29 Republican candidates with contributions to 29 new leaders of our own. But we need your help to do it.
Every dollar countsand every dollar brings us closer to breaking the reign of Cheney, DeLay and their corporate cronies in Washington.
We've got them on the run. Now, let's show DeLay and Cheney what the grassroots can do. Give now:
