The DCCC just called begging for $$. |
|
I said:
When the Democratic Caucus can get impeachment back on the table, call me. When Nancy Pelosi apologizes to Pete Stark, call me. When the House has something worthwhile to do besides condemning Moveon, call me.
I'm tired of giving money to Vichy Democrats.

1. The Congressional "heuchlers" really see us as hecklers. |
|
They also think that their position privileges the truthiness of their view.

When I get mailings asking for money, I tell them much the same thing, and return my comments in their self addressed stamped envelope. As a lifelong Dem, it hurts me to do so, but they have failed us miserably.
I usually end with the words, "I have not abandoned my party, my party has abandoned me."
Maybe if we hit them in the wallet they will get the message...but I'm not holding my breath.

As Billy Thorton stated in Slingblade.
Come next election fire them all. Any warm body that will stand against Corporate Amerika, vote them in!

6. Tell them to ask AT&T or Verizon. |
|
Or they can maybe start begging off of Republicans.

8. I told them I don't give to "Neville Chamberlain" democrats - |
|
and that all my political money is going to either Howard Dean and the DNC or the individual campaign of MY choice...
I like your list though - I didn't go into specifics. If they call me again I'll go through the scorecard.

12. Every self addressed envelope I get from them asking for money, I send back with $0... |
|
Edited on Sun Oct-28-07 02:59 PM by calipendence
... and I write all over it that they need to support impeachment, public campaign financing, and other issues they continue to ignore...
We should all do it. When the ratio of their postal expenses to what actually gets sent to them in donations gets too high, perhaps they will realize that something's ROTTEN in the state of Denmark (er the U.S.)!

14. I'd be surprised if Code Pink sent you a self addressed envelope... |
|
I don't think they send them at all anyway, but if they did, I think they'd target their mails a bit better.
