Dear Arnold,
For nearly three weeks now, at a price tag exceeding $500,000, Michele Bachmann has been running negative ads attacking Tarryl Clark over an initiative Bachmann herself once claimed to support.

You might say Bachmann was for it before she was against it.

Can you help us keep Michele Bachmann honest by contributing to Tarryl Clark today?

Bachmann is using the Minnesota Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment to attack Tarryl, who voted to put the measure on the ballot and let voters decide whether they wanted to raise the state's sales tax a fraction of a percent in order to fund clean water and land conservation efforts. The amendment was supported by dozens of hunting, fishing and other outdoors groups.

And, at least in 2008, it was publicly supported by Bachmann herself, as reported by the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

The measure passed overwhelmingly - including in Minnesota's 6th District, where it got 53% of the vote, racking up 30,000 more votes than Bachmann herself received that year. No surprise, then, that she would have wanted people to think she favored it.

Now, Bachmann is using the measure to attack Tarryl Clark. Last week, a spokesperson for her campaign said she "never" supported it. Either Michele Bachmann lied to sportsmen and outdoor enthusiasts in 2008 or she is flip-flopping now.

Whatever the case may be, residents of the 6th District deserve better.

Bachmann's ads have been judged "false," "misleading," "wrong," and a "distortion" by independent fact checkers. But that hasn't stopped Bachmann, who continues to put big money behind her deceitful advertising campaign.

Don't let her get away with it.

Help us hold Bachmann accountable with a donation of any amount today.

Sincerely,


Zach Rodvold
Campaign Manager
Tarryl Clark for Congress

P.S. - There's no doubt that Bachmann's next attack ad will be out soon. Help us stay competitive on the airwaves with a donation today. Every little bit helps!
