Catholics and The GOP

I received an email asking if I could post this. It's going to be tough for Bush to win Illinois but maybe something like this will help:

An open letter to Conservative Catholics

As part of a grassroots effort, the Republican National Committee is reaching out to Catholics this election cycle. One of the ongoing efforts is to identify parish leaders within each Catholic church to help communicate that it is the GOP that best exemplifies traditional Catholic values in America...

This is a truly grassroots effort, attempting to build a relationship with Catholics at the Parish level. The GOP is seeking Conservative Catholics, who are active church goers. These people will lead the effort to get the facts out to Catholic voters, and to register conservative Catholics to vote. The Parish Leaders will receive information from the RNC in support of their activities.

This is an important element in the effort to re-elect President Bush, and elect Republicans at the statewide level. As Catholics, it will enable us to be heard on issues such as abortion, stem cell research, gay marriage, and any number of other issues

Illinois has a large Catholic population. Catholics in the State of Illinois could enable the President to win here, and provide the Democratic Machine a big surprise come November. The only way to enable this scenario is to become involved.

To become involved , please email George Dienhart at gdienhart@rocketmail.com
