World Net Daily has a message for all 535 members of Congress: do what we say or you're fired.

Today, Michele Bachmann and three other right-wing members of Congress responded to the threat with a hearty "thank you."

WND founder Joe Farah held a press conference with the members outside the Capitol today where he announced users of his site have sent 5 million "pink slips" to Congress through a program launched by Janet Porter, one of his columnists. Porter is the founder of "Faith 2 Action," a right-wing activist group. The small sheets of pink paper Porter and Farrah say they've been delivering by the crate-full to every member of congress for the past few weeks, warn members that if they vote for "Government Health Care, Cap & Trade, 'Hate Crimes' or Any More Spending," they'll be voted out of office. The pink slip comes "signed, your employer" and lists the address of the World Net Daily who spent $29.95 to send it to Congress.

Farah said the campaign was a natural fit at WND.

"A lot of people are asking me, 'why would a news man get involved in what is so clearly an advocacy campaign?" he said. "Well, I'm an American first and a newsman second."

Bachmann, whose past voting record has included "more spending" -- which, according to the pink slip, would mean she's out of a job -- said she welcomed the mailers and claimed they were aimed at the Democratic leadership, despite the fact that they were delivered to every member of Congress.

"We can't say that we didn't know where the hearts of the American people are," she said. "The fact that it's going to all of our offices is a good thing."

Bachmann claimed Washington under the Democrats has led America on a "historic shift away" from the constitutional framework for the nation and said it was that shift that caused protests like the pink slips and the tea parties.

Bachmann was joined at the presser by fellow right-wing representatives Trent Franks (R-AZ), Steve King (R-IA) and Louie Gohmert (R-TX). Franks echoed Bachmann's claim that the slips were directed at the Democrats.

"They had better make a distinction [between Republicans and Democrats]," he said. "The American people really blew it in the last election."

All three members of Congress said the tea parties and the pink slip campaign prove that the right has a strong influence over politics, even in a city currently dominated by Democrats. Porter, the organizer of the pink slip campaign, agreed and pointed to the slow pace of cap-and-trade and health care reform as an evidence.

"This is the reason why we are seeing the bills not moving as fast as they'd planned," she said.
