This from Politico.com-
A prominent Evangelical figure and Republican donor says he will end his contributions to the organized Republican Party in reaction to the leaked fundraising presentation that advised using “fear” to solicit contributions and displayed an image of President Obama as the Joker from Batman.
Mark DeMoss, who heads a major Christian public relations firm in Atlanta and served as a liaison to the Evangelical community for Mitt Romney in 2008, wrote Chairman Michael Steele yesterday that he was “ashamed” of the presentation, calling depictions of Obama, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Majority Leader Harry Reid “shameful, immature and uncivil, at best.”
Even if the contribution funds from 2008 for the RNC weren’t that significant, one would think this news would cause the GOP to sit up and take some notes. A loyalist to the Republican party since the early days of the foundation (this according to a Time article from 1999) the disapproval of so staunch an ally would be a tweek on the nose. Pulling their funding goes a bit further. And well they should. Republicans shouted “foul” whenever a tshirt or poster reared its head portraying George Bush as Hilter or any other bogeyman. Why shouldn’t someone - from the inside - cry “shame on you” when they do the same to Barack Obama?
