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.

LOL... Nah, it actually felt good to get that off my chest, and give it to someone who sounds like they deserved a little bit. (o:

Did I send this to you, I am truly sorry, its been a wild night trying to respond to all these posts. BUT ALSO A TON OF FUN TOO.
None of the sarcasm was meant for you because, as far as I`m concerned, you don`t deserve any. You are fun to toss ideas around with and I`m sorry

Could it be that Breck Girl thinks of the poor whites as nothing more than trailer trash.

I had an ACLU attorney tell me today that she thought there were two Americas and John Edwards was an articulate man.

However, she stated that Hillary Klinton would be best for America and inclusive to all Americans with new social programs.

Well, it certainly sounded like you were addressing my post with your response (besides the name)...

But, anyway, I do accept your apology, and I appreciate it.

Why are the Rats getting a free pass on this? What is Hillorat`s position? How about the La Bombaman? No matter what becomes law, if either wins in 08, they be da ones that do the implimenting.

The RAT supporters are too uneducated to comprehend the short or long term ramifications of this bill. AND they are the segment of society with their hands out asking, "what are you going to do for me today?" They cannot see beyond their victum status and understand only the vague promises of an improved life by those who would lead them on for votes.

What goes around comes around? They had fair warning but would not listen! I’m sure the phone solicitors were glad to go. They’ve had some splitting headaches and jangled nerves enduring the RNC’s telemarketing meltdown.

I’ve had the luxury of screaming my talking points at the RNC for the past three years. The fun part is going on at length until they run out of comebacks from their cheat sheet.

Mel Martinez ascended awfully fast. He’s going to be the fall guy when this falls apart. That’s why he stands in the back row when the traitors hold a presser. He knows he’s been used and all they had to do was stroke his ego and hand him the RNC Chair.

yeah, never use your own stamp. It’s good to never fill out the survey and just get a red magic marker and write your complaints in huge printing. They think they’re getting a donation but sadly, no.

The RNC has been taking Florida for granted for years. Those days are over. Florida is a wild card now and it’s their own fault.

I always factor in the “views” on a thread. This breaking thread is going to have some major coverage before the weekend. They designed their fall from grace and I’m not crazy about democrats either. The danger is when people just stop voting altogether. Nobody listens after all. We are the opposition and the illegal aliens are getting our nation handed to them on a silver platter.

Parties are permitted to get foreign donations - I found the info last year. It’s some kind of loophole with the Federal Elections Commission. Unfortunately, some of those foreigners are involved in organized crime.

the ‘no postage required’ envelope. Better yet, tape it to a brick and send it back. They have to pay for postage.

Lead flashing-- sheet lead.

You can find it in building supply stores.

About a tenth of an inch thick, weighs a ton-- cuts like butter, with scissors.

Trim to fit the envelope.

This year she is watching grass grow in Montana. It doesn’t yell at her. :-)

If she is in the Eastern part, you just about can! Lots of rain this year. (Sure beats the spring blizzards of 20 years ago!)

I got the calls from the Senate committee, too...I was polite to the person on the phone (they're not to blame for policy, after all!), but I told them: I'm sick of Hagel, and Collins and Specter and the other RINOs.

They completely understood when I told them I now give to individual conservatives...I would give again to the party when the party AS A WHOLE moved to the right a bit more. :)

{er a loophole in the federal election laws, foreigners can donate to US campaigns. Hardly anyone knows about this loophole. I found it last year before RINO-democrat Crist was elected Fla’s creepy governor.

Calls are coming in 100 to 1 AGAINST THIS STUPID SENATE BILL. Somehow, that got out. If they ignore the majority, is it a dictatorship yet?

I know what’s bugging them... They’re supposed to have that faux Republican Convention in Minneapolis. That’s gonna cost some big bucks. They can’t have a convention at a Motel 6 but may have to.
