Socialist Explores Legal Options Against Republicans Over Abusing Party Name on Democratic Competitors
Republicans are “lost and confused over own identity,” —Besmirching Socialist Party’s Proud Heritage
Spring Hill, Florida, Tuesday, May 19, 2009: The former 2008 presidential candidate of the Socialist party USA, Brian Moore, is exploring his options for a lawsuit to stop the Republicans from abusing his Party’s brand name.
After conferring with several attorneys, Moore sent an overnight letter to the Socialist Party headquarters, urging his national party to consider suing the Republican Party over its violation of the Socialist Party’s brand name.
Moore, who is presently Chair of the Socialist Party of Florida, learned that a special Republican party bylaws meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, May 20th, in the state of Maryland, where Republican conservatives will be proposing a resolution branding its major party rival with the name ”Democrat Socialist Party.”
Moore said he is “outraged” at these actions, and is “incredulous” to learn that the Republicans would “apply the name ’socialist’ to, of all people, the Democrats, a purely capitalist party through and through!” Moore complained that nobody has ever said “anything that bad” about our Socialist Party before.
“To steal our name is one thing,” said Moore, but to apply it to the Democrats “is the biggest joke of the year!”
The Republicans have “initiated their own ‘agitprop’ as a communist strategy (agitation and propaganda), for their own conservative revolution,” stated the socialist!
Moore bemoaned that the Socialists are tired of the Republican’s “craven screams,” which shows they are nothing more than “timid cowards, weak, poltroon, and recreant.”
It is now obvious to the country that the Republicans are “lost and confused.” They should be more conscerned about finding their own identity rather than mischaracterizing the Democratic Party as something that it isn’t, and besmirching our party’s proud heritage in America in the process.”
