Here's a letter I wrote to the RNC this week:

Mr. Randy Pullen
RNC Treasurer
310 First Street, SE
Washington, DC 20003

Dear Mr. Pullen,

Contrary to your enclosed message, I have in fact given up on the Republican Party. I am first and foremost a conservative. As the Republican Party continues its drift to the left, I find little reason to provide support.

The RNC had its chance and squandered it during the GW Bush Presidency. During that era Republicans spent our hard earned tax money like drunken sailors and made “pork” a way of life. I work hard to make a living and expect my elected leaders to be frugal with my tax dollars. The only difference I see now between the Republicans and Democrats on fiscal matters is the size of the deficits. My support will be for fiscal conservatives, and right now neither party qualifies.

The Republican Party had an opportunity during the GW Bush years to establish a meaningful national energy policy, but did not.

The Republican Party had the opportunity to deal with illegal immigration and to close our borders, but did not.

The Republican Party had the chance to reform the out of control tax code in America, but did not.

The Republican Party had the chance to effect tort reform and reduce size of the lawsuit settlements that are crippling our businesses and our health care system, but did not.

I could go on, but I’d only be wasting my time. Your only goal is to win elections. You care not a twit about actually leading America in a positive direction.

When the Republican Party returns to fiscal and social conservatism, I’ll once again support it. But for now, the RNC has lost its way. Just being against the worst excesses of the DNC is not enough. You need to stand for bedrock conservative principles. Since you do not, we must part our ways.

Sincerely,
