I got a letter from a Republican congressional fundraiser, asking for money, yesterday. It went right in the trash. They can kiss my a**. I’m not sending a dime until they learn what it means to be a Republican again. I’m so sick of this multi-trillion dollar sink-hole called congress, I’m just done with the lot of them.
Dems are worse, but so what? How can we stop them with these GOP big-spending dem clones?
I’ll continue to vote for the most conservative candidates I can find, but the GOP fundraisers are dead to me.
And this whole McLame nomination is like the icing on the cake. Here comes the obamanation.

Consider the possibility that too much of the electorate just isn’t buying what the GOP is selling. Curling up into the fetal position, harboring a healthy dose of indignation, and expecting conservative advancement, when too many people just want nothing to do with it is silly and immature.

It may feed a shallow sense of superiority, but until the GOP starts making a strong case for its messages, it will be on the short end of congressional power and see more losses at every level.

Couldn’t agree more.

...deserves repeating

These are my exact feeling as well.

For a while I was writing brief but impassioned letters on their unceasing fund-raising mailings, and explaining to each national (Senatorial, House, National this or that branch of the GOP) caller that I wasn't supporting the national party until it started showing some sign that it cared what I thought.

It made no difference at all. The mailing continued, the calls continued.

Last week some poor guy got me at Sunday lunch or something like that and I let him have both barrels.

The calls haven't stopped. Now they just ask for my wife.

I'm kind of glad that, now that he's messed us over really well, Newt seems to have found something to occupy his time other than chasing skirts, cheating on his wife, uh, wives, and worrying about which door on Air Force One he gets to use. But I need a little humility from him as well.

How amazingly brief was the time from 1994 until the Republicans started acting like Democrats with bad haircuts! Ramos and Compean languish in prison, while "entrepreneurial" Republicans find new ways to sell us out.
