Now wasn't that schmart of them!
Minnesota Dems issue anti-Catholic mailer in final week Hot Air
Talk about being thick as a brick and dumber than a bag of hammers, this is it.
A) It rests on the stupid idea that ONLY THE GOVERNMENT can help the poor. No! Catholic Charities, Christian Charities, or just individuals giving of themselves, can't help the poor, ONLY THE GOVERNMENT.
B) It's a direct cheap shot at the religion of a LOT OF AMERICANS, which seems pretty damn tone deaf as to how those Americans might react to such an add.
Way to go liberals. When you aren't just telling Americans they can't say the pledge, or calling them stupid, you're letting them know what you think of their most precious faiths.
Then you have the unmitigaged arrogance to blame the American people for why you are losing the elections.
Keep this up! Tuesday is coming!
Now wasn't that schmart of them!
If the Minnesota DFL intended to make a splash in an otherwise-obscure state Senate race, well, they succeeded. The party, which is the Minnesota version of the Democratic Party, sent out a mailer attacking Republican challenger and Christian minister Dan Hall by accusing him of ignoring the poor for opposing ObamaCare. However, the front of the postcard shows a headless man wearing the traditional shirt and collar worn by Roman Catholic priests, with a button that proclaims Ignore the Poor which has a large number of Catholics in Minnesota angry over a perceived attack on their church. KSTP reported on the mailer and the DFL silence last night:
Consider this Minnesotas Aqua Buddha moment. Luke Hellier at Minnesota Democrats Exposed has the full scans of both sides of the mailer. The picture of the priest wearing the button includes the text, Independent expenditure paid for by the Minnesota DFL State Central Committee, Brian Melendez, Chair[.]
The flip side of the mailer is a classic case of a cheap-shot, last-minute attack campaign that both parties indulge in the final stretch of an election, but the front picture goes way beyond anything in recent memory in attacking a church of any kind in a political campaign. The full context in which this was issued makes it difficult to believe the archdioceses expressed hope that this was just a poor decision. A few weeks ago, the Catholic bishop issued DVDs with the Catholic Churchs arguments on same-sex marriage, which the DFL and its supporters decried as interference in the election. This looks suspiciously like payback.
