Dear fellow gun owner:
Just last week, Governor Doyle was complaining to the media that certain
members of the legislature were putting gun issues over the issues of jobs,
health care, and education.
Yet, just a few days after his boisterous media complaints, he has decided
to launch a website that specifically deals with the gun issues at hand last
week. He has now made the issue of gun rights a centerpiece of his
legislative campaign for this fall's elections, and for his own re-election
campaign in 2006. Don't hold your breath waiting for the media to ask why he
is now more interested in gun issues than jobs, health care or education.
You can view his website at
http://www.noconcealedweapons.com/ Just as
Governor Doyle has done in previous elections, he's now trying to turn each
faction of the gun community against each other. Even worse, he's trying to
use this website as a tool to drive a wedge between law-abiding citizens and
law enforcement. He's trying to paint those of us who obey and respect the
law as would-be criminals.
What's even more telling is where his requests for donations will go. The
donations aren't going to the campaigns of Democrat legislators who sided
with gun owners. The donations are going to Jim Doyle.
Doyle's website is a first in Wisconsin politics. Never has a governor been
so desperate to cover his backside that he's launched a website railing on a
particular issue in order to raise money.
Is Governor Doyle running scared?
You bet.
So, let's keep him running scared. Our political action committee, the
Wisconsin Concealed Carry Movement, has raised several thousands of dollars
over the past three years to help real pro-gun candidates win their
elections. And, with your support this year, we'll fill the Capitol with
even more pro-gun legislators.
Governor Doyle is a powerful man but, in the end, he is just one man. We are
many. Unlike Governor Doyle's "noconcealedcarry.com" campaign, we don't have
any high-paid staffers. In fact, nobody at the WCCM is paid a dime for their
work. We do it because we believe it's right. Unlike Governor Doyle's
campaign, we make no secrets about where the money is going: our State
Elections Board filing reports are available to anyone online, or even over
a cup of coffee. Where Jim Doyle's money from his website goes will be a
mystery until well after the November elections. We make our finance
reports available at any time, and to anyone.
We're honest. Doyle is not. We're open to scrutiny. Doyle is not. We have
principles. Doyle does not. We care about the future of pro-gun legislators
in Wisconsin. Doyle does not. We care deeply about the interests of every
gun owner. Doyle does not.
We ask you to send whatever amount you can afford--whether it's $10 or $100
or more--to help elect pro-gun candidates this fall. Please send a personal
check to: WCCM, 3263 S. 45th St, Milwaukee, WI, 53219.
Come November 3rd, either Doyle or gun owners are going to win. Your
contribution will help determine that outcome.
Thanks,
The Wisconsin Concealed Carry Movement
