That wasn’t a serious question, or even a question at all, it was a display of ignorance and mendacity with a question mark tacked on the end.

You must have forgotten to hit the “Submit Comment” button on that. Your first post on this thread was just a collection of insults, and your second was insults plus lefty talking points.

What was the “serious question”?

Never responded to one of the mailings. A couple times I was thinking about it, but actually reading what they wrote convinced me otherwise.

Just noticed this. Or, clearly, you don’t know how registered letters work.

A political party is asking you for your opinion and you’re annoyed by it so you make a rather outlandish post like that?

The Republican Party doesn’t people like you, I don’t think. I’m sure if you sent them a letter back saying leave me alone they’d be more than happy to never speak to you again. You’re certainly an arrogant little snot Mr. Basil. How dare a party ask your opinion unsolicited. The sheer gall of such people! Perhaps since you gave money to Republicans they, you know, hold your opinion potentially valuable enough to ask you for it?

People need to start acting like adults and stop acting like some early-blooming 14 year old who thinks she’s God’s gift to humanity because all the seniors are hitting on her.

[I think you missed my point: I wouldn't send out such a silly thing as that email, and neither should they. - B]

No you didn’t. You dragged in a soapbox uninvited, climbed up on it, and proceeded to display your dazzling moral purity and superiority.

FOAD.

I filled out the survey. Because it was late at night and I was in a batty mood, I also commented it well. The questions were just so obviously slanted that it was almost painful just reading them. I particularly liked the choices at the end, where they want you to give money.
* Yes, I will give you money now
* Yes, I love the Republican Party and will probably give you money later
* “No, I want to keep electing liberal Democrats” to every office in the nation.

I almost added a “Hell No, I will not give you money and I don’t fit your stereotypes, you misogynistic mental pygmies”, but there wasn’t room, so I just crossed out “liberal Democrats” and filled in “No”.

Is there actually a good reason to maintain such a polarized mob mentality in this country? As far as I can tell, it’s causing us nothing but trouble.

After it’s been in the bottom of a bird cage for a week.

Fill box with rocks.

Leave note that said rocks are smarter than those sending out unsolicited mailings. That is, of course, George Hayduke advice that I just pass on for the amusement of the public.

Just teaches you to not give folks money.

I despise the Republicans. I just despise the Democrats more. Anything good happening in the Republican Party is coming from the roots. The tree is rotted at the top.

Yes, and yes again.

Besides the usual pleadings for “Mo’Money!” and panic-grams, the SOB’s had the nerve to send me a red letter with “Final Notice!” emblazoned upon it.

I thought about stuffing the SASE with roofer’s lead foil and returning it- but it would have been a poor waste of good materials.

If the GOP can’t quit running tired old retreads like McCain, and get behind Sarah, they are cooked.

Sadly, I used to work in Republican fundraising. The ‘survey’ you received is from a firm called Response America (formerly Response Consulting) based in Arlington. It’s headed by Chip Gately and it’s his ‘signature’ package that ‘guarantee’s’ a 2-1 fundraising ration. The sad part it; it works. You can’t imagine how many of these things we’d draft and send out just to have Grandma send back $5.

I’d say call the party and have them remove your name, but unfortunately you’re now on the donor list for any Republican official in your area. This is one area where Republican’s have been a little more coordinated than Dems. The national party does weekly updates and downloads to all of their candidates mailing lists. So, you may get off the national list, but you’re now on all of the local lists. In better news, after 24 months, if you don’t give anything, they will finally start mailing you only 4x a year (it will say ‘reinstatement’ on those). After 72 months you’ll be purged for good (with a final – ‘LAST CHANCE’ teaser on that last letter).

Cheers,

Shawn

Probably because I used to the subscribe tot the Advocate (gay “news” magazine), I occasionally get fund solicitations from Democratic and pro-abortion outfits. And they overdo them as well, trying a bit too hard to look like they’re really, really, really official.

Kudos on this post. Well done!

Here, we just make fun of lefties and advocate nuking the moon.

We ELECT Representatives to VOTE our views in CONGRESS. We don’t need the DNC or RNC to use OUR money to BUY votes.

Citizens MUST TAKE BACK THEIR COUNTRY.

Hold YOUR OWN Town Hall meetings. Don’t invite the incumbent if they vote party over constituents.

Invite their opposition. Better yet, hold a citizen’s PERFORMANCE REVIEW of your elected officials. Include Federal, State, and Local officials as well.

You get a performance appraisal at work – why not Congress, State and Local officials as well.

It’s time loudmouth activists are pushed off the stage to let REAL CITIZENS speak for themselves.

Cancel all media subscriptions until 2010 election is over.

That will insure a more fair election. It will help to eliminate those who don’t contribute to growing GDP.

BLOG, TEXT, FAX, TWIT, CALL, WRITE, REBEL!

Very biased survey. The question on Iraq had choices that were all geared to how many months before withdrawal. No “get out when we win” option.
