Last month, the Republican National Committee used Newsmax‘s email list — probably for a fee — to solicit donations and support.
Newsmax — which published (and later unpublished) a column saying it’s not “unrealistic” that there may be a “military intervention” against President Obama — names the RNC as “our sponsor” in the email, which is signed by RNC chair Michael Steele.
The message, addressed to “Fellow conservative,” asks readers to take a health care survey and contribute “$1,000, $500, $100, $50 or $25 to help support our efforts to combat the Democrats’ attempt to impose ‘Obamacare’ on all of us.”
“You and the RNC are all that stand between our sensible Republican plan for real health care reform and the Democrats’ scheme to take more of your hard-earned income to pay for other people’s health care while limiting yours,” it reads.
