RNC Fires Phone Solicitors [former donors outraged over amnesty]
The Washington Times ^ | 05/31/2007 | None Listed

Posted on 05/31/2007 2:47:01 PM PDT by de meanr

There has been a sharp decline in contributions from RNC phone solicitations, another fired staffer said, reporting that many former donors flatly refuse to give more money to the national party if Mr. Bush and the Senate Republicans insist on supporting what these angry contributors call "amnesty" for illegal aliens. "Everyone donor in 50 states we reached has been angry, especially in the last month and a half, and for 99 percent of them immigration is the No. 1 issue," said the former employee.

When they called my house last week and I told them no way with this amnesty deal and no one with any “guts” running the girl on the phone immediatly gave me a canned “we’ve got to keep Hillary Clinton out of the White House angle. Just thought that was interesting.

“They seem to forget that corporations can’t vote.’

But they can donate...a lot.

The problem will solve itself.
All those small donations represent a vote.
Those small votes put them in office.
Those small votes will take them out.

They need to sell something people want to buy.
The product sucks and we’re done buying.

Are you a Democrat? Or are you a Rudy supporter? Some people have to start somewhere, obviously, they are counting on the people like you to perpetuate the fraud!

Most are against illegal immigration, you are one of the fooled sell outs!

Very sad.

Right. The small-donor contributions are off 40%. The RNC says it’s due to a bad phone system, fired phone solicitors say it’s due to discontent among small donors. Hard to tell.

Just day before yesterday, I printed this out, trimmed it nicely, and sent it back in the postage pre-paid envelope which I had received on Monday. It was great to be able to respond to their request so quickly...

i>Why are the Rats getting a free pass on this? What is Hillorat`s position? How about the La Bombaman?

With few exceptions, the Democrats are all for an amnesty bill. And why shouldn't they be? It will automatically create more voters for them. Over time, a lot more voters.

They're getting a free pass because they're Democrats. And the Republicans are getting ripped because only they can stop the bill -- and they seem disinclined to do so.

I sent them two of those Jorge bucks - in their own PPD envelope. Too bad it was before the latest postal rape increase.

HEAR HEAR

I told them I started givin my money to the NRA because the Republicans should be able to raise plenty of money from those who want open borders.


The Republicans leaders should just start their own party and call it the RINO Party. And they can not be Elephants because Pro Lifers, NRA members, and people who support God in Public view have called themselves Elephants for thirty years or better. Conservatives are Elephants. Rudy wants to change the Party, let him start the RINO Party. Mitt is from Massachusetts, enough said. If he wants to flip flop, let him start the RINO Party. McCain doesn't want to fund the law that Hunter sponsored to build 800 plus mile of fence, but he wants to support amnesty. Let them all go start the RINO Party.


We already have a law that says we can build a fence from California to Texas. Start building it and use the laws we have on the books now and this is no longer an issue. If you want the illegals gone, just tell me and I will pass the word to my Redneck friends. We will go to where the Mehicans work, tell them we need ten workers. Load them up in the back of the pickup. Then drive them to ICE, the border, White House and the steps of Congress. I saw a fellow do that on a video (drove them to ICE). Had me in stitches. If ICE would have been ready, it would have worked too.


I'll tell you what, I am a hard core Elephant. Been like that since the 80's. I call my self Old School Conservative. And I will tell you that this is the biggest bunch of wussies this Party has ever had as leaders. I am not talking as President. I think we have a couple good candidates (like Duncan Hunter and that guy from the 52nd district of California and he served with the 75th Rangers in Vietnam and has a son in Iraq). But I am talking about the wussies who are leading the RNC and the so called leaders of the House and Senate. I honestly think they have no clue or backbone.


The only thing that could save the Republicans is if Demorats continue to be stupider then the Republicans. Stupidity is in the Demoratic DNA, so I think the Republicans are safe. I am telling you, the Republicans are staring down the barrel of a shotgun and they still don't recognize the threat. How many of the illegal immigrants do you think will vote Republican? How many? Who cares right? The leaders of the Republican Party don't. Now, how close are the elections right now?


OK around 80% of the Cubans who come to this country do vote Republican. That is because they lived under a Commie regime and want Capitalism in a bad way. So, let all the Cubans in. Matter of fact we will trade the people for a few of our top notch Demorats like Nancy Peloser or Scary Reid. But I ask you how many Mehicans are going to vote Republican? The worst is, they come from a socialist kind of State and they will come here and vote for Demorats and tilt the balance to the Socialist Demorats. I don't think they know any better yet. They are not like Cubans.


So I submit that the Republicans who vote for Amnesty, vote to pull the trigger of the very shotgun that is held to their head.


Do I just stand by and watch? What can I really do? I already stopped sending my money to them. Should I not vote for them too? Then the commies will win. Who is left to stand for Capitalism, strong Military and Intel, the unborn baby, my 2nd Amendment, and a prayer in school? Who? the RINO and the Demorat? Good luck with that.


The 2nd worst is, I want to pick up a weapon and stand a post, but my post may be leaving me.
