Thoughtful "Caring" Dems Distribute Highly Offensive & Hateful Flyer

Here's one more reason to vote Republican next week as if you or I needed anymore after this past week.

Lost in the Kerry bitchslap this week the Tennessee democratic party, you know them, the party of inclusion, the party of the disenfranchised, the downtrodden, minorities of all colors etc, etc, apparently care about everyone except the mentally and physically handicapped.

Two Years ago during the presidential election, that they thought or saw absolutely nothing wrong with the campaign poster that was being used in Tennessee shown below by a Democrat running for congress there.

Can you believe that anyone could possibly allow that poster to be used anywhere by anybody, except for a Bush hating bds afflicted left wing democrat and expect to get away with it for a minute?

Then, could you imagine the uproar if this was done by anybody with an "R" before hers or his name? This poster would have been plastered all over every network news channel for a week had it been a conservative using it.

Instead you hear absolutely nothing then from anybody about it's existence until either you saw it here, at free republic where I saw it, or at the website of the coalition below that intervened to get it denounced and removed. This party has always gotten away with these types of things and yet always falsely accuse republicans of similar behavior. Spread this around to any liberals you might know and ask them how they could support people who possess the type of thought process that thought this was ok.

October 14, 2004 TVC Condemns TN Democrat For Distributing Flyer Belittling Special Olympics Kids: "Washington, DC, -- “Tennessee State Representative Craig Fitzhugh should be ashamed of himself for allowing his campaign office to distribute a flyer belittling Special Olympics children,” said Traditional Values Coalition Chairman Louis P. Sheldon, today. “This disgusting flyer is an insensitive attack against children with disabilities.”
"
Rep. Fitzhugh’s office, which is shared by the Kerry-Edwards campaign, has been distributing a flyer showing a Special Olympics child with President Bush’s face superimposed on the head of the disabled youngster. The headline reads: “Voting for Bush Is Like Running In The Special Olympics: Even If You Win, You’re Still Retarded.”

“This kind of mean-spirited material has no place in an election campaign,” said Rev. Sheldon. “In my 40 years of involvement in politics, I’ve never seen anything so despicable as this flyer. Rep. Fitzhugh should not only apologize to the disabled community and to his opponent Dave Dahl, he should fire whoever is responsible for distributing this ugly attack piece.” more
