I know what you mean---I got my "late notice" in the mail the other day for my RNC Membership dues--
I have had no desire to pay them until I see some of the things accomplished that were promised.
Of course the judicial nominees is first on my list, but also, some amendments have been added to bills that shouldn't have because some of the Republicans have voted for them. The most objectionable that come to mind right now is the one passed this week ---Babs Boxer's amendment regarding funding abortion information in foreign countries.
I HEARD on the Senate floor that Bush promised to veto the bill if that amendment was added. I guess the Reps that voted for it either don't BELIEVE that, or don't care that they just wasted a whole week working on a bill that will be vetoed anyway---and why in the heck would John Warner vote YES to contribute to abortions in foreign countries, anyway!!!!
Therefore, I feel that I have a choice---wait and see what happens until it is too late to salvage the REPS in 2006, or wipe my hands and start watching soap operas, OR try to get ahold of Ken Mehlman and warn him that there are a lot of people out in "fly-over" country that just may sit 2006 out, both financially and at the voting booth---
To make a short comment on your part, long,---is that what you were referring to?
And if so, what course do you think you are inclined to take?
Scratching head. My sense is 1) they are actually afraid of being yelled at (or about), and 2) they maybe don't have the belief in their espoused principles that the dems do. The dems firmly believe that they have a right to be in power, to use it when they are and to take this country down the road to socialism and a nuanced Europeanism and global governance. Our guys are elected to stand against this, but they spend like drunken sailors and won't take a STAND, FGS. (Sensing frustration???)
