"Attorney General" Meese

I just got a letter from Ed Meese of the Heritage Foundation:

Dear Fellow Conservative,

I'm Ed Meese. It was my high honor to serve as Counsellor to the President in Ronald Reagan's first term, and then as the 75th Attorney General of the United States. But today, I'm writing to you in my capacity as Honorary National Chairman of the
National Conservative Campaign Fund (NCCF).

Imagine for a moment it's January 2009. The election campaigns are over and the winners are poised to take office. Will one of them be President Barack Obama? Or will it be another Clinton - President Hillary Rodham Clinton?

Imagine further that the liberal Democrats have increased their grip on Congress.

My friend, if that happens, prepare yourself for the greatest onslaught of ultra-liberal legislation and programs in our lifetimes, which will affect you, your family, and everyone you care about.

"President" Obama said he stands for "change we can believe in." But what he really believes in is Big Government, and plenty of it. His agenda will expand government's size - and its appetite for your tax dollars - on a scale we can scarcely fathom.

"President" Hillary Rodham Clinton said she has "solutions for America." But you and I both know that, just like Barack Obama, her so-called solutions actually are all about growing government more than ever before - at the expense of our freedoms!

"President" Obama. "President" Clinton. Here's something important to understand: there are millions of conservatives who don't consider a Democratic presidency to even be legitimate. Here, a former chief law enforcement officer of the United States is encouraging them.
