-- FROM THE ARTICLE: Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh suggested Powell's endorsement was rooted in race and the hope that Obama would become the first black president.

"I'll let you know what I come up with."

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
-- A suggestion for GOPUSA ILLINOIS critics - Dave Diersen
www.gopillinois.com
Since January 1, 2005, GOPUSA ILLINOIS has brought 36,222 internet postings and information on many upcoming events to its subscribers' attention every morning free of charge and without any advertising. GOPUSA ILLINOIS hopes that information will help elect Republican candidates who can and will advance the Republican Party platform. One suggestion for GOPUSA ILLINOIS critics is to get together and hire someone to send an email each day titled: "Articles GOPUSA ILLINOIS missed, articles GOPUSA ILLINOIS should not have included, and why GOPUSA ILLINOIS has bad judgment, has evil motives, and lacks ability." Without question, the following would want to receive such an email: Jerry Moore and the rest of the liberal news media, Democrats, RINOs, anti-conservatives, the anti-religious, Combine members, those who want to be Combine members, those who work for Combine members, those who lack what it takes to stand up to the Combine, socialists, abortion advocates, homosexual activity advocates, promiscuity advocates, race based preference giving advocates, gender based preference giving advocates, bilingual education advocates, amnesty advocates, illegal immigration advocates, those who exploit illegals, mass immigration advocates, Second Amendment opponents, death penalty opponents, moral relativists, etc. Will GOPUSA ILLINOIS critics urge it to stop sending emails free of charge and begin charging for subscriptions, stop posting copies of the emails on websites, load the emails up with graphics and photos, load the emails up with advertising, get their permission before doing anything?
