Dear X
I do not need to remind you that this is an election year. I voted for you last time, but I will only vote for you again if you do one of two things:
1) Publicly denounce the sexism that has been rampant during this primary season. It is an atrocity and an affront to the largest voting block of the Democratic party. You, along with the rest of the party have stood idly by and in your silence have made it perfectly clear how you feel about women. If you do not feel this way you need to say it and you need to say it now.
or
2) Take back your endorsement of Obama and endorse Hillary Clinton before June 3rd.
You may choose either of the above, but you must do something or else you will not have my vote come Novemeber.
Sincerely,
me
The local, state, and national parties may not be listening, but if the pols who need to get elected get enough of these you bet your ass they'll be listening.
NOTE: This is not to say that all Obama supporters are sexist (though if you are not speaking out, especially about his demeaning behaviour towards women (see sweetie comment, PA kiss comments, etc) you are in my book) I just threw that in, though I'm about 99.8% sure he won't.

I don't mean this in a confrontational way, but are you saying that you think anybody who supports Obama is sexist?
No not at all. I highly doubt he'll do the second one, I just kind of threw that in there. His failure to say anything though makes me think he *is* not his support of Obama.
as always, I support strikers and I will not publish links to Kos since there is currently a writer's strike. fyi
Message sent on behalf of Shut The Freud Up Productions:
Shut The Freud Up Productions has produced a new video. Check out our new blog ( http://shutthefreudup.blogspot.com )
"DNC: Fractured Fairly Tales" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvuMDmqwwbI ) is our (IndyRobin and GeekLove) latest video from "Shut the Freud Up" Productions.
Our last video "Mad as Hell" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcdnlNZg2iM) was seen by over 165,000 people. It was written about in Salon (twice), Newsday, was mentioned by the New York Times, and was prominently featured on the front page of most blogs supportive of Hillary Clinton.
We need your help to bring the same attention to this video. It is different from the first, but nonetheless, equally important. "Mad As Hell" exposed the sexism in the MSM. "DNC: Fractured Fairly Tales" exposes the DNC for who they really are.
Please pass this along to everyone you know. When you do, please ask everyone to go directly to YouTube and recommend it, rate it as their favorite video, and leave a comment. We are counting on you to help us with the same dedication, commitment and attention you gave to our last video.
Thanks so much for your support. Our goal is the same as yours: to help elect Hillary Rodham-Clinton as President of the United States. She has never stopped working for us, so let's not stop working for her.
With much appreciation,
IndyRobin and GeekLove
