Which corporate pockets fund the most legislators?

Dear Spectator supporter,

Thank you. Felicitous salutations. Merci beaux coup. Hizzah!

Thanks to many of our dedicated friends, we are well on our way to our goal of $50,000. 30% of the way to our goal to be exact.

As always, we are so grateful for your readership and your support.

I do, however, have an inkling of a fear we may not meet our deadline of May 31st... Maybe you can help?

Did you know that if everyone who visited The American Spectator website this year donated just $1, we would easily exceed our annual budget?

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we rely upon the kindness and (tax-deductible!) generosity of patriots like yourself to fund quality writing and research like our groundbreaking "Ruling Class" piece by Angelo Codevilla last summer.

We are planning an equally ambitious upcoming feature on campaign financing corruption. Don't you want to know how your political contributions are being spent? Which corporate pockets fund the most legislators?

I certainly do!

To continue holding elected officials' feet to the fire, The American Spectator needs your help. Please consider making a donation of $25, $35, $120, $500, $1,000 or your most generous contribution today.

Know that our small but spry band of reporters, editors, and minions work feverishly to put your precious dollars to good use.

A few months ago, you again humbled me with your generosity by helping us raise $60,000 to upgrade our office technology and website. You will soon see the fruit of that investment at Spectator.org -- just as we already have in our Virginia offices, where many of our desktop dinosaurs were recently retired to the Smithsonian. Dramatic website improvements are underway, and we'll soon be unveiling new subscription options for digital subscribers.

Once again, thank you for your interest in freedom and your readership, but today we are in need of your support. Please visit our website today and make your most generous contribution. I'd be most grateful.

Yours faithfully,
R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr.

P.S. Although I like to think we are pretty good at it, there is so much more to the Spectator than caterwauling and bamboozling. We provide thoughtful, erudite analysis rarely seen anymore in the usual 24/7 churn and burn media outlets. Your financial support will help us to continue to promote individual liberty, free markets, and limited government.

P.P.S. Donate $25 or more, and we'll send you three free digital issues to enjoy on your PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad, or Android device. Please make your most generous contribution online today.
