Reminds me of this article:


Published on Saturday, March 4, 2006 by the Boston Globe
Dear Senator Dole: I Must Respectfully Decline Your Invitation
by Derrick Z. Jackson

No wonder we never found weapons of mass destruction. Republicans can't even find Republicans!

I know this because I received a letter from Senator Elizabeth Dole, the National Republican Senatorial Committee chairwoman, to join the Republican Senatorial Inner Circle. Her letter praises me for my ''remarkable support of President Bush's agenda."

Along with a certificate for framing, the letter said I was in the ''top echelon" of only 100 people from Massachusetts who were extended this invitation on the circle's 25th anniversary. It said, ''Mr. Jackson, please know there are many strong Republicans in Massachusetts, but we cannot recognize them all. . . . President Bush, Vice President Cheney, Senate majority leader Frist, and the Republican members of the Senate are counting on you to answer this call and accept this well-deserved invitation."

Snip...


We have the Keystone Kops sale of six ports to a Dubai-owned company that neither Bush, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, nor Treasury Secretary John Snow knew about. The mounting evidence that the government ignored the early accounts of Hurricane Katrina breaching the levees of New Orleans made Republican congressman Christopher Shays say the government had ''failed all levels in planning for and responding to Hurricane Katrina. The White House was clearly in a fog, Secretary Chertoff was totally detached and Michael Brown was negligent."

On the clueless negligence on my invite, I called the Inner Circle several times, to no avail, to see how it had happened. Over the years, the Inner Circle invited several decisively un-Republican newspaper columnists, Democratic elected officials, Democratic National Committee cochairman Steven Grossman, and rapper Eazy-E.

6. A couple of months after we move to Belmont, we received
Edited on Thu Mar-16-06 09:08 PM by Mass
a letter with an invitation to a Bush meeting saying that we were great contributors to the GOP. You could think that, in MA, they could keep track of the Republicans.

They are really desperate to find new people.

7. You rock!
My husband got an invite to join some Rethug Indoctrination Group and he sat down and wrote them a ahm rather stinging letter about what they could do with their 'People like us' missives. I was so proud of him.

Yeah, we have Rethugs in Massachusetts. It is a very, very virulent strain that is just nearly impossible to get rid of once it establishes a foothold. Fortunately, the numbers are small, but we remain, ever vigilant.
