American Family Voices Volunteers to Help Fix the White House Leak
Plumbers to Attend Karl Rove Fundraiser for Rep. Jim Gerlach With Tools In Hand
WASHINGTON, DC – American Family Voices will join several plumbers tonight outside a Karl Rove fundraiser for Rep. Jim Gerlach (R-PA) and volunteer their services to fix the leak in the White House.
President Bush seems to be content with unethical behavior inside of his White House, but we aren’t. The American public is no longer willing to sit back and let the administration get away with putting our safety at risk for political revenge. This is not a partisan issue, our nation is at war and this is a matter of national security.
“Karl Rove is the ultimate mastermind of smear campaigns. He knew exactly what he was doing when he talked to reporters and leaked classified information. What he did was wrong and he needs to pay the consequences for his actions,” said American Family Voices president Mike Lux. “Bush said he would fire anyone who leaked classified information – he needs to keep that promise.”
WHO: American Family Voices
WHAT:Plumbers offering their much needed services to the White House as a public service.
WHEN:5:30 to 6:30 p.m. tonight
WHERE:17th and Pennsylvania Ave., NW
WHY:There’s a leak in need of fixing.
