XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX THU SEPT 26, 2002 14:09:27 ET XXXXX STREISAND MEMO TO GEPHARDT: 'TAKE THE OFFENSE!' [The typos "President", "Al Queda", "Gebhardt" and "Sadam" are in the original fax.] [Click for .PDF version of Memo] CONFIDENTIAL MEMO DATE. September 25, 2002 TO: Congressman Dick Gebhardt FROM Barbra Streisand/Margery Tabankin RE. Take the Offense As you know, Barbra Streisand is busy in rehearsals for the performance she's giving on Sunday for the DCCC, so she asked me convey to you her feeling that it is time for the Democrats to get off the defensive and go on the offensive. Naturally, Barbra's not surprised to see the Bush administration evoke strong rhetoric about Democrats caring more about their own 'special interests' than protecting the security of the country. Of course, the Republicans will say anything they need to in order to accomplish their own political agenda. Barbra feels that the Democratic Leadership must not continue to take this lying down. While the Republicans are shouting about the Democrats' special interests, why are the Democrats not saying the same about the Republicans? How can we ignore the obvious influence on the Bush Administration of such special interests as the oil industry, the chemical companies, the logging industry, the defense contractors, the mining industry, and the automobile industry, just to name a few? Many of these industries, run by big Republican donors and insiders, clearly have much to gain if we go to war against Iraq. Barbra urges the Democrats to publicly convey this message to the American people. While there are serious problems with Iraq and Saddam Hussein, Barbra feels that we can't let this issue become a distraction from the country's domestic problems and the President inability to fully dismantle the Al Queda network. Afterall, Sadam Hussein did not bomb the World Trade Center. Feel free to call Barbra or me at 310-395-3599 if you would like to discuss this further. 1460 FOURTH STREET, SUITE 212 � SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA 90401 (310) 395~3599 � FAX (310) 395-9676 ----------------------------------------------------------- Filed By Matt Drudge Reports are moved when circumstances warrant http://www.drudgereportArchives.com for updates (c)DRUDGE REPORT 2002 Not for reproduction without permission of the author |
