Dear Friend,
I have never seen anything like it. Once you are within 20 days of an
election, law requires that candidates give almost a daily accounting
of
contributions to the FEC. Chris Cannon’s reports are shocking!
Corporate
America is pouring money into his campaign—to the tune of over $140,000
in
just ten days!

And all this just further exposing the depth of hypocrisy of this
candidate. With one hand, Congressman Cannon is campaigning on a
platform
of never having supported amnesty and having never encouraged illegal
immigration—a tough on immigration guy! Then, with his other hand, he
is
out panhandling every beneficiary of the cheap illegal labor known to
man.
The duplicity is not to be believed!

Don’t get me wrong—we are not discouraged—just a little shocked. It’s
like reading all about drug deals—then actually witnessing one. It
shakes
you up! Well, we are witnessing the corporate purchase of a
Congressman
and it is alarming—even for this old pro.

Let me name just of a few of his recent corporate donors: Home Depot,
Inc;
United Parcel Services Inc; Wal-Mart Stores, Inc; Walt Disney
Productions;
Independent Community Bankers of America; National Restaurant
Association;
Hotel PAC; National Roofing Contractors, US Chamber, American Express;
California Farm Bureau; Dairy Farmers; International Council of
Shopping
Centers; National Rural Letter Carriers; and Western Growers.

Do you get the picture? They’re the ones living off the illegal
workers—one way or another. Washington is selling out the country to
them!

While their power is daunting and wealth immeasurable, we have to stop
them!

And there are signs we are making progress. We forced Cannon to go to
the
big boys for a bailout. He is one week away from a primary battle
against
a complete novice and he is in full panic! And you and I-- we are
responsible for that.

But we haven’t beat Cannon yet. Our ad guaranteed that immigration
would
be the defining issue of the race and has caught Cannon in his web of
lies. And, thanks to your generosity, we are now up again this
week--on
both of the major radio stations—throughout the day! As money comes in
this week we will strengthen that buy even further right up to Election
Day! Any contribution you send will go right to this cause.

And to extend our reach even further we have managed to get an enormous
amount of free media—newspaper stories and radio interviews. We
definitely have Cannon on the ropes—his internal polls must show that.
Otherwise, there is no way the powers that be would orchestrate such a
sudden massive dumping of cash into his campaign.

Corporate America knows what we know—a defeat for Cannon will
jeopardize
their agenda something terribly. And remember that agenda includes
amnesty for themselves, as well as their workers.

Beating Cannon is going to be tough—but we always knew that. I just
have
to believe that if we can reach enough of the voters and expose the
truth
about Cannon’s role in this immigration crisis, they will have the
fortitude to hold him accountable, and throw him out of office.

Thanks for your help in taking the battle right into the backyard of a
Congressman.

My best,
Bay Buchanan
