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

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.

Evidently the arrogance shown by certain Senators and high government officials is taking it’s toll on the Grand Old Party.

It’s a sad day when politicians sell out their constituency to special interest politics.

I still predict that Fred Thompson's anti-immigration stance will propel him into the POTUS should the RINOS go ahead with this insane shamnesty bill.

Funny in a way but when the money dries up all these so called patriotic politicians run for cover and flip flop like a beached fish.

We're gonna take things away from you for the common good!

Pandering will get you nowhere.

Please respond to the next solicitation by sending them a Bush peso. You can get one at: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1841739/posts?q=1&;page=51 comment 76.

That way they know exactly why you’re angry. I’ve sent two Bush pesos to the National Republican Congressional Committee in the last day and a half. Today I just received a presidential birthday solicitation from the RNC with an enclosed card to the Bushes I can fill out and a postage paid return envelope. I intend to use that card and envelope tomorrow to send appropriate birthday greetings accompanied by a Bush peso.

Gop blog? The only thing new on there is the Democratic debates. They have their heads so far down in the sand hole they don’t know which way is up.

The latest thing on the “Immigration Reform” blog is August 24, 2006. Out of touch just doesn’t cover it.

No, neverhillorat, the illegal amnesty question will be decided for the worse now, if it’s decided now. If this bill passes the amnesty part of it is irreversible.

Really?

I just moved to a new state — NC — and registered to vote when I got my driver’s license. For the first time, I did NOT register as a republican; rather I am now officially “unaffiliated”. Too many sell-outs, compromises, and outright betrayals for me to support the GOP as a national party any more. I would imagine there are many, many of me out there.

They (phone solicitor) really made me mad, mad, mad the other day ... got a solicitation call for funds. I explained that my husband is undergoing chemotherapy/radiation for esophageal cancer and that we did not have the extra funds to assist but thank you for calling. The guy would not let it go ... generally solicitors extend they wishes for a speedy recovery and hang up but this guy insisted that if we can make a donation of 75 maybe we could make one of 50, I said no, he went to 25, I said no we are not interested in contributing and then finally he asked for 10 and I said remove us from the call list and hung up.

ROFLMAO

Sounds like something Adolph Hitler would do to a general working the Russian front.

These people got to be the most arrogant numb butts on the face of this non global warming earth.

Thanks Rove you magnificent (________).
