The Political Environment: How'd I get on this fund-raising list?

How'd I get on this fund-raising list?

JAMES, as a trusted leader in the Conservative movement I need to ask you an important question.

Should I run for President of the United States?

I have been praying about this decision for a long time and if I do decide to seek the Republican nomination for President I need to know you’ll stand with me...

Dear James, I have been praying for a lot of money to come my way. I have plenty accumulated by telling lies, by treating people like dirt, and by begging from the rich who hate God, but I can never have enough. If you give me some of your money it will help God tell me what to do.

Walker makes me sick. He is a wolf in sheep's clothing and every time he mentions prayer it should be considered a blasphemous joke.; June 29, 2015 at 9:41 AM

At least he didn't refer to himself as a trusted leader of Wisconsin.; June 29, 2015 at 12:58 PM

I hope this link works, since it was written by a person with a *very* conservative political outlook.

Sound familiar?

Thanks for the great work, James!; June 29, 2015 at 11:26 PM

Everybody check your spam folder for around 7am on June 29.

With the timing, my first thought was that Walker was about to take the anti-marriage-equality rhetoric up into the stratosphere, but the body of the message makes no further reference to "human tragedy." Just boilerplate (paraphrasing here) "I took on the Big Government Labor Bosses in Wisconsin... and I need your money to take my big, bold reforms to Washington..."; June 30, 2015 at 4:31 PM
