Hey GOP... you want my suppoort? Start EARNING it, rather than putting up tepid candidates and sleepy ads and using our fear of the Left to bring in donations.

So it’s late and I misspell a word. Is that all you got? What a shame.

I get more and more uncomfortable with FR as a fundraising tool.

You should always fear the left!

Go Mac!

"your comment was unclear... you use words like "seem" and "perhaps," and say that you are "uncomfortable." but didn't convey why you were uncomfortable... "

Fair enough. I'll take my exact prior words and see if we can't hammer this out straight.

I get more and more uncomfortable with FR as a fundraising tool. (meaning that I am getting to the point of not being comfortable with FR becoming a fundraising tool.)Grassroots organization and the like have always been a mission, but this outright fundraising arm of the GOP doesn’t seem right (organization and similar activities were always a part of FR, but becoming a fundraising wing in the GOP) seems like a change in direction. (is a change in the mission of FR). Flame on. (guess you figured that one out just fine ;-))
"why so defensive at my wanting clarification?"

I wasn't defensive and I'm still trying to figure out what was so hard to read in my initial comments. After saying that I was uncomfortable I did say why. Please don't hesitate to ask if there is anything else I can try to explain. Thanks.

I appreciate your honesty and wish that we could 'fight on the same side' for this battle, but I can't do the whoring out thing another election cycle. If it had worked out better the other times that I've sucked it up and done what I thought was 'best', I might be willing to try it again. (note to self: don't use words 'sucked it up' next to a sentence where you've indicated that you're whoring.)

This time I'm going to have to do what I think is right, not just 'best'.

Nice having the conversation with ya though. Take care.

You folks who think everything that doesn't mirror your exact thoughts is whining or crying can kiss my lily white ass. Thanks so much!

You know, it does actually indicate some ability to communicate on an adult level when you post words instead of cartoon pics. I'm just sayin'. I guess you do what you can.

For whatever it's worth around here, we sent them what we could spare- via the web, so it would be fast.

I'm not telling any of you where to send your your money, just telling you that Now Is The Time- if you are going to do anything to help, do it now, via web or phone.

You didn’t misspell it; you spelled “sediment” correctly. LOL!! Sometimes we have to laugh at ourselves to release a little tension. I apologize for being a smart alec. Totally out of charcter for me.

Hey Lib: Last I knew Republicans and Conservatives do earn their money. Contributions are given freely and at our discretion. Your guy, Zerobama, wants to take money from our free market economy, from those who create jobs, and give it to “the 47 year old bald, fat guy watching TV in his mother’s basement with oatmeal dribbling down his chin.”(Mark Levin) Know anyone like that? I’ll bet you do!

Quite the reactionary, aren’t we Mary? My post is complaining that the GOP doesn’t fight for conservatives, gave us a weak RINO candidate, and seem s very reticent to go after Obama on his oversupply of huge questoin marks. If the GOP would do their job, I might be more inclined to send some of my hard-earned money to them. Since they don’t... I don’t. I guess that makes me a “lib” in your world. I mean, you have been such a dedicated Freeper for 4 whole weeks now. How dare I question your insights? ;^)
