FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JULY 22, 2013
AN OPEN LETTER TO THE ORGANIZERS AND MEMBERS OF “THE TEAPARTY.NET” AND “TEA PARTY NATION” FROM THE UNITED KENTUCKY TEA PARTY
Your recent endorsements of Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell took the grassroots Tea Parties in Kentucky by surprise. In fact, we are absolutely amazed at your lack of research and poor judgment.
Senator McConnell voted for every debt ceiling increase under George W. Bush, TARP,CAFTA, NAFTA, the 1986 Amnesty bill, Biden/McConnell fiscal cliff deal 2013, Patriot act and NDAA.
Senator McConnell’s Progressive Liberal voting record, his absolute iron fisted rule over the Republican Party in Kentucky and his willingness to roll over and cede power to President Obama and the Liberals in Washington, prove that he is no friend to the American people or the citizens of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
Your endorsement undermines the work of the real grassroots Tea Party organizations all over Kentucky. Had you taken the time to reach out to us, you would have learned that the Tea Parties in Kentucky do NOT support Senator McConnell’s campaign.
The undersigned Kentucky grass roots Tea Parties request that you withdraw your recommendation of Senator McConnell and join us in working to replace him with a true Conservative who will uphold Tea Party values.
Respectfully
Scott Hofstra
Spokesperson, United Kentucky Tea Party
