| Dear Tom, Liberals don't even try to hide their attacks on our liberty anymore. To tighten their grip on power while they still have it, liberals have launched a broad and brazen assault on the economic, cultural, religious, military and political foundations of our freedoms. What liberals are doing is lifted straight from the pages of Saul Alinksy's handbook for the far-left wing of the liberal movement, "Rules for Radicals." That's why we need your help today. I firmly believe the only organization that can stop the liberal agenda is the organization that most embodies the conservative movement in the first place: The American Conservative Union. I'm Dan Schneider, Executive Director of the American Conservative Union (ACU), America's original conservative group and the host of CPAC for four decades. ACU is forming ranks in the battle to stop Obama's dangerous liberal agenda. We're growing our grassroots army to turn back the tide of liberalism threatening to tear this nation apart. I urge you to join with ACU today to help us give Obama and his "Rules for Radicals" liberals a lesson they never will forget!
Idolized by both Obama and Hillary Clinton - Hillary wrote her senior thesis at Wellesley on his "Rules for Radicals" - Saul Alinsky pioneered the despicable practice of dividing Americans along economic, social and racial lines. Alinsky celebrated the politics of derision, obfuscation, and intimidation. Any political figure who dared to object or complain was summarily isolated, alienated, ridiculed and, if possible, investigated. Kind of reminds you of today, doesn't it? After all, President Barack Obama:
All of us who love freedom must come together - millions of authentic conservatives like you - to fight back for freedom, for the Constitution, and for a return to the politics of civility and respect. And I believe the best place we can do it is at ACU. ACU is the conservative group that has been getting it right for 50 years. The oldest and largest conservative grassroots lobbying organization in the nation, ACU has served as an umbrella organization to the movement that created it for over half a century. Harnessing the collective strength of conservatives nationwide, we fight for liberty, personal responsibility, traditional values, and a strong national defense. But we can't do it alone. We need your help to create a grassroots army united by our principles - regardless of whose "side" they are on - to push back each and every time Obama crosses the line. And to hold accountable those in Congress and in state legislatures who vote with him and against the principles we stand for and protect. But we're in a race against time. That's why it's urgent that you join me as a member of ACU today. With just months remaining to impose his agenda on America, Obama has begun his final assault on our freedoms. Waving his pen and his phone at us, he is taking page after page out of the Alinsky playbook. And Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and their liberal henchmen have already proven they will stop at nothing to impose the boss's dangerous agenda. Liberty depends on the support of informed, action-oriented Americans who can help us rein in Obama's rush to impose his agenda before he leaves office. That's why I urge you to help me wake the sleeping giant that I know exists in America by joining ACU today. With two more years of Obama in the White House - and Hillary waiting in the wings - ACU is building an army of activists from across the country to refute, resist and restrain the liberal movement. They have a vision for America. Well, so do we. And our army won't be complete without you. When you join ACU, you help support our respected work to apply conservative principles to solving America's problems. You help us spread our ideas that freedom and liberty, independence and self-sufficiency are the best antidotes to poverty. You help us prove how a free market system with a limited government is the best on Earth. And you help us engage with Americans through the tools they need to be informed and involved, including: ACU Congressional Ratings ACU was the first to provide Congressional ratings on every member of the House and Senate, and this valuable service - always free to the public - is still is the best, the gold standard for holding EVERY member of Congress accountable. With ACU ratings, every voter - Republican and Democrat alike - can see who among their lawmakers vote according to conservative principles on taxes, wasteful government spending, cultural issues, defense and foreign policy. And who doesn't. State Ratings Last year ACU brought its commitment to conservative ideals to the states, by rating members in five states. In 2014 ACU is on track to score 35 states as part of our plan to bring ratings to all 50 states -- scoring every legislature in every state. Conservative Political Action Conference ACU has proudly hosted this event every year since 1973. CPAC is the nation's largest gathering of conservative activists. Held in Washington, D.C., each year and now in regions across the country, CPAC educates, convenes and energizes thousands of attendees and all of the leading conservative organizations and speakers who impact conservative thought in the nation. From Presidents of the United States to college students, CPAC is the place to find our nation's current and future leaders and sets the conservative agenda each year. Education: The American Conservative Union Foundation ACUF, an educational foundation, provides critical research and background information on issues helping fund various aspects of conservative education. ACUF also provides scholarships for college students to attend CPAC. Lobbying With a 50-year track record in conservative politics, ACU has the gravitas to ensure our positions carry weight with decision-makers. Legislators know that ACU is the Washington voice for over a million American conservatives. Rallying behind conservative principles of limited government, controlled spending and strong defense, together we will help America resume its rightful role as an economic, military and moral superpower. And with support from Americans like you, we can get back there again. Do you share my concern? Is the future of our nation to be a place where a President flouts the Constitution and the Bill of Rights . . . mocks the rule of law . . . and eviscerates our freedom of speech, freedom of religion and freedom of the press . . . ? I urge you to join us today. Together, we can get back to what makes America great. We can replace rules for radicals with the rule of law. But left unchecked, Obama will continue to dismantle and discard the sacred freedoms that once were synonymous with America: Freedom of the press. Freedom of religion. Freedom of speech. And America will remain divided and diminished for generations to come. We can't let that happen. Please join ACU today. In Liberty,  Dan Schneider Executive Director The American Conservative Union P.S. I joined ACU because I believe that in many ways, the very idea of America has never been in greater jeopardy. If you agree, please join us today.
My
comments: I am NOT advocating your becoming a member of the ACU,
but I do believe that as a Christian we have a God given DUTY to
stand up for godliness and Righteousness. To do so we must
understand the Political Realm and the THREAT to America that the
godless, Secular Humanists present, and it is DEADLY. In reality, as
I have said before, EVERYTHING is Spiritual. God is concerned about
everything that goes on on earth today. You cannot segregate the
Spiritual from the Political. I do advocate that you support the
Righteous and Righteousness.
