Dear ______,

Yesterday, it was announced that the outrageously false ads aired by NARAL attacking Supreme Court nominee Judge John Roberts would no longer be seen on television screens across the country. Despite Howard Dean, Harry Reid, Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi's refusal to condemn the false ads, the American people have spoken loudly against this degradation and NARAL has conceded to the overwhelming pressure. But now we must prepare for NARAL's next planned advertisement and the liberal Democrats' efforts to push their next round of attacks against Judge Roberts.

As a supporter of the President and Judge Roberts, please call on your Senators to repudiate the politics of false attacks and scare tactics, and demand a respectful, serious confirmation process of which our country can be proud.

As soon as Justice Sandra Day O'Connor announced her retirement, Democrats busily constructed what they hoped would be a successful strategy to defeat any nominee put forth by President Bush. On July 3rd, The Washington Post uncovered the Democrat strategy of a three-pronged plan-of-attack against any potential nominee.

Part one of the Democrats' plan was to claim they weren't sufficiently consulted by the President. However, after the President's unprecedented consultation with over 70 senators, including two-thirds of the Democrat caucus, Senate Majority Whip Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said on the floor of the Senate, "that dog won't hunt."

The second part of the Democrats' strategy is to cast Judge Roberts as an extremist. The false and outrageous ad run by NARAL is an indication of how far the left is willing to go to make this second strategy work. The fact that NARAL had to pull their own ads off the air because so many Americans deemed them untruthful and offensive illustrates how the Democrats' strategy to paint Judge Roberts as an extremist has completely collapsed.

The third prong is the Democrats' latest effort to request endless amounts of documents in an attempt to drag out the confirmation process. In the history of the Supreme Court, no nominee put forward by a Democrat President has ever been asked to produce documents that would jeopardize the Department of Justice's ability to defend the legal interests of the U.S. Government and the American people. Moreover, the Bush Administration is already providing the U.S. Senate with over 60,000 pages of documents for review.

As the confirmation process moves forward, politically motivated Democrats will become increasingly frustrated as more and more Americans become aware of Judge Roberts' clear qualifications for the job. If the NARAL ad is any indication, there may be no end to the lengths they will go in attempting to smear a good man.

Sincerely,

Ken Mehlman
Chairman, RNC
