Meanwhile, in the Presidential Campaign

Michele Bachmann’s latest fundraising email, illustrated with the picture right here and headlined “Let’s show Whoopi we won’t stand for her attacks,” is a nice little respite from the collapse of the United States.

I’m just going to go ahead and post the text for your enjoyment.

Looks like the Democrats have sounded their alarms in Hollywood.

The Hollywood elite have been on the attack this week, falsely berating our campaign for President and supporters.

On Tuesday, while on The View, Whoopi Goldberg spewed senseless accusations aimed at our campaign. Her comments were not only incorrect, but wrongly attacked my stance on single parents. As the daughter of a single parent, I learned firsthand the difficulties of growing up with one parent. However, it was from my strong and independent mother I learned when the going gets tough, the tough get going.

In order to show Whoopi, we won’t stand for her attacks, I have set a goal to raise $40,000 in the next 24 hours. Please follow this link right away to chip in $25, $50 or even $100 to help me reach my goal of $40,000 by tomorrow.

I am proud of my record and I refuse allow liberals like Whoopi Goldberg bully our campaign. This is yet another example of how the liberal Democrat establishment has put a target on my campaign for defeat. They’ll say and do anything. The comments from Whoopi Goldberg have hit a new low and I must have the resources to defend myself and fight back.

Liberals across the country believe if they defeat our campaign, the Tea Party movement will be eliminated. I need your support to defend myself and our shared constitutional values right away.

I won’t back down and today, I need to know you stand with me. To accomplish my goal of $40,000 in 24 hours, I’m relying on friends and supporters like you to step up to the plate to help me today. Please follow this secure link to make your donation of $25, $35, $50 or more.

I’m reaching out to you for help because the liberal media credits me with being an undaunted conservative who routinely leads the opposition to President Obama. That’s why the radical supporters of President Obama’s agenda are so committed to defeating me.

The Hollywood liberals believe if they attack my campaign, they have a shot at defeating me and dismantling the Tea Party movement. Your immediate donation will send a strong message to Hollywood, that we are not going anywhere. That’s why any amount you can donate to my campaign today - up to the $2,500 legal limit - is appreciated.

I look forward to your immediate response and I thank you once more for your friendship and support.

Sincerely,

Michele Bachmann
