Very similar situation here Mary. Now when they call for dad or I they get an earful
When we get mail asking for a donation, I no longer ignor or write we only give to individual and candidates and return. From now on I’m putting two pennies in and returning it. It will automatically trigger more requests for money and each time they’ll get my two cents worth. (I suppose you could look at is from the viewpoint of the Biblical woman giving her two coins too)
Until the GO PEe starts listening to fly over country and not just the NE part of the country that will be my responce...Maybe I should send that message over the net.
I felt the need to stand up for my principles and not just do it privately. I have been selling myself short and compromising for the sake of “the Party” and I simply will not do that anymore
So many of us voted for Rino McCain with huge reservations. I didn’t just vote for him. I worked as a volunteer on his campaign. What a disaster and waste of time.
I am so grateful for supportive freepers because I would feel like I was crazy if I didn’t have you guys for validation. Well, even so, it’s felt surreal the last couple of months.
I cannot tell you how intense the reaction to my letter has been..bordering on vicious comments from supposed “friends” claiming that if I don’t support WHOMEVER the nominee is, especially Mittens, I am a traitor.
These GOP elistists are so stupid. They are focused like a laser on the presidency only and have no idea that Mittens is extremely beatable..
Finally, do they not realize that we can get involved in other ways and help Conservatives get elected in local and state races?
These “big whigs” are the ones who don’t do jack squat except to order people around and try to act important.
