David Pearce (r – advocate of automotive deer hunting) has the benefit of the republican Majority Fund, Inc. to continue his whining for him in the open seat race with Chris Benjamin (D) in the 31st Senate District.
First, the Majority Fund’s republican benefactors, via the Missouri Ethics Commission [pdf]:
That $25,000.00 ain’t for pizza to feed the three volunteers at the local republican headquarters.
What, say you, Matt “baby” Blunt has his fingers and money in this stuff? Say it ain’t so. And, as Master Yoda once said, “There is another…” [pdf] That’s an additional $25,000.00 from the carcass of the Blunt campaign.
And what hath all that republican establishment money wrought? A nasty attack piece! It came in yesterday’s mail:
Paid for by:
Shall we untangle the little web they weave and play “Six Degrees of Jeff Roe”?:
Via the Missouri Ethics Commission:

And from the same section of the same filing:

There’s a certain irony for the typo as it applies to David Pearce. Okay, so it’s “One Degree of Jeff Roe”.
Let us continue with the attack piece:
A volatile mix of the republican cult of victimization and excessive hyperbole, anyone?
Uh, David, how does leaving the republican party because of its bankrupt policies have anything to do with “the public trust”? The sense of outraged entitlement is touching. Is that like Mel Brooks in the History of the World, part 1 looking at the audience and saying, “It’s good to be the King”? The only people still remaining in the republican party are the right wing nut jobs and the opportunists hoping to grab up a few of the leftover scraps. Did I just write that out loud?
Further evidence of republican irony impairment.
Uh, is it me, or did they just accuse Chris Benjamin of doing in the past what they’re now doing in this mailing? Just asking.
“Chris Benjamin says you can trust him, but he used to be part of the Republican party!

But isn’t the Republican delusion on the public trust a reason for the problems we’ve had lately with them?
As a once really good friend of David I find this mail piece disgusting. I have lost alot of respect for him. In addition, im not going to cry over the fact that Chris was involved in a lawsuit that only cost “tens-of-thousands of dollars.” How about kicking the poor off of medicare/medicaid David? How many lives could you have helped save if you had the backbone to take on your own party and fight for people less fortunate than you? And you call yourself Pro-life?
