Catching up on misleading mailings

I’d been away and was eager to get home, you know, so I could catch up on things needing to be, well, caught up on. Like checking the junk mail. I wasn’t disappointed, I’d received 10 slick and glossy,
full color, super-sized postcards from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC). They all said Keith Fimian, Republican candidate for Congress, was a member of an organization
that “encouraged women to be more submissive.” Other dastardly things were alleged too, like he’ll take your contraceptives away and that the values “promoted by Fimian’s organization weren’t our
values.” Seems like if you vote for Fimian you must be a communist, or maybe a terrorist!

And if you had doubts about what the cards said, they recommended checking out the “real Keith Fimian” at a cleverly named Web site: TheRealFimian.com.

But then I noticed the Web site was sponsored by the DCCC too! Hmmm. So I looked at those cards closer and found some really small print with Web sites for “Fimian’s organizations.” After checking
the sites, I learned one organization holds monthly meetings for businessmen and their wives to learn more about their faith and how to live it in their professional and personal lives. Like the importance of
doing good deeds and being good examples, and setting high standards in their businesses.

The other organization was for Christian men of any denomination who are willing to pray and sacrifice for the women in their lives. This involves fasting for 24 hours — on bread and water — one day every
month for the intentions of their wives, sisters, mothers, friends, and especially for women who have been hurt by men! Dangerous organizations these!

I next checked organizations that support the Democratic candidate. Like Planned Parenthood, which never met an unborn female child it liked, and which has a large site full of “interesting” information.
Like how it wrote a manual for developing sex-ed in PRE-SCHOOLS! Just what our culture needs, more sexualization of our kids. Values? Not!

These DCCC postcards are outrageous. The Democratic candidate should disavow them. I didn’t know anything about Keith Fimian but after investigating the organizations he’s in, I believe I’ll vote for
him. Fimian isn’t against women, but I’m beginning to wonder if the DCCC Democrats are against faith.
