I just called the RNC and tell them I'm quitting the Republican Party over this. Judge Greer is a Republican. Jeb Bush is a Republican. I do not want to be a Republican anymore.

RNC # is 202-863-8500. It's time for that BACKLASH!!!!!!

I am not going to be a member of a political party with Jeb Bush in it who turned his back on innocent Terri. And George Greer who is the god of this world.

Bye bye Republican Party FOREVER. And I have been a faithful Republican since I don't know when.

It's an issue of accountability, isn't it?

We have to put our actions (and money) where are words are.

On my side of the swamp, I am writing letters to every elected officeholder I know, no matter at WHAT level, to ask them what there opinion is about the case.

I am asking it in connection to their potential political aspirations, as they may be wishing to move up the ladder and go to positions where they WOULD have some input. I want to know GOOD and EARLY, if they would stand up for RIGHT over EXPEDIENCY, even if it were to mean they risked impeachment or voter recalls. If they are not afraid to make such a pledge, or chose not to answer, they are not going to get my vote. That goes for everyone above the position of local sanitation district (elected positions).

That's a great idea....maybe we need a separate thread for this phone #...if they start getting calls from supporters quitting the party.well they can't have that happening

One thing that I've started doing with these phone calls is asking, "who will I hear back from?" when I get the "oh, it's going in my report" then I say "ok, well what was MY name?" I then make sure they have my name and phone number, and I have their name. I'm not saying I'm leaving the Republican Party. I say that I don't know what my options are, but I voted for this administration based upon their Pro-Life stance, and I don't believe anything is being done by my representatives, and I'd like to be contacted to discuss this further.

I'm not a financial supporter, so I'm not sure it matters; I am however a volunteer so it should matter.

[who knows what evil?]

I am not going to be a member of a political party with Jeb Bush in it who turned his back on innocent Terri. And George Greer who is the god of this world.

I admire your principled stand. Most will not.

I'm all for backlash, Saundra, but there are always rotten members in any party. Leave it to the rotters and what good comes of it? How is that even a backlash? Maybe we should concentrate on toning up the party we've got rather than leaving it for another, especially when another is in its infancy and might just develop in a way we don't desire; maybe we should concentrate on ridding the party of RINOs instead of ridding it of us.
