All the mail from RNC has been going in the trash here for over two years. They don’t get it - don’t understand that the Republican Party has become too liberal.
Like the term "ditto", I think now I'll just start saying "post 17". Bravo!
There was one poster here who wrote NO AMNESTY in big letters on the donation letters and sent them back. I did the same thing... put the letters in my printer and printed on them in big, black ink (maybe I will use red next time) and put them in the postage-paid envelope and sent them back.
Simply throwing away their mail deprives you of the opportunity to make your voice heard.
Same here, except two weeks ago I mailed back their plea for money with a red Sharpie scrawl that said "Not another dime! Build the fence. Death to RINOs. Grow a spine!"
Was that too harsh?
Just wonderin'.
The mail here, asking for money from any Republican cause, and we get many!, goes into the shredder. Quite some time ago I sent back the letter along with the reason why they were not getting any more donations until they started acting like Republicans. At the time I was upset about the promotion of RINO’s running for relelection, and ignoring the conservatives.
I donate to campigns, not parties.
‘All the mail from RNC has been going in the trash here for over two years.’
As others have said, I too, have told RNC telemarketers that I will give no more money until the Senate begins to place the interests of the country before their own selfish agendas.
And, since the RNC encloses a postage paid envelope with their fund raising letters, I also return the letter with comments similar to above....of course, w/o $$.
I’ve done this for a while and hasn’t seemed to matter. Maybe, now, that many people are no longer donating, they’ll pay attention.
“All the mail from RNC has been going in the trash here for over two years. They don’t get it - don’t understand that the Republican Party has become too liberal.”
I don’t throw them in the trash. I take a marker pen and write a note on the donation requests and return them. Have sent back four so far with a note about only supporting REAL CONSERVATIVES and how we don’t want a dime of our money going to any RINO’s!
I have to say it makes me sad to read this....but we are doing the same thing. We had such hopes....
Please respond to the next solicitation by sending them a Bush peso. You can get one at: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1841739/posts?q=1&;page=51 comment 76.
That way they know exactly why you’re angry. I’ve sent two Bush pesos to the National Republican Congressional Committee in the last day and a half. Today I just received a presidential birthday solicitation from the RNC with an enclosed card to the Bushes I can fill out and a postage paid return envelope. I intend to use that card and envelope tomorrow to send appropriate birthday greetings accompanied by a Bush peso.
I don’t trash it I put in note:
No more $$$$$$$$$$! Till you stand up for USA Citizens not Illegals! And send it back in the stamped envelope:
Mail it back at their expense with a polite no sequiter
Don't waist those prepaid envelopes.
I always use them to send back my simple message "Secure our Border!"
Don’t trash it, send it back to them in their self-addressed stamped envelope and tell them once again why it is that you are a “former donor”. I do.
Take a minute and use their pre-paid postage to let them know exactly why they're getting none of your money. I never throw away an envelope addressed to the RNC. I give them a piece of my mind on their dime.
Same here (and EXACTLY). If i want to vote for an irresponsible, out of control spendthrift government that aims to dismantle the constitution for its own political benefit, I’ll just vote for the Democrat party.
These Republicans who think that they can win by mirroring the big gov dems are defeating themselves on a few levels: they are alienating their base which will stay home or vote 3rd party (either tends to favor the dems), and the mindless sector of the electorate who lives off govt largess will never vote for a Republican, so they are hosed on that from too.
As I asked on another thread, who is advising the Republicans on these issues? If I didn't know any better I would guess it was James Carville.
May the GOP - RIP.
No base, no party.
Let the House and Senate cesspool rot in Democrat corruption.
My vote is useless.
Naw, I send them back to the RNC using their pre-paid postage. But first I take a large red marker and write my list of demands on the donor “card”;
1) Close the damn border
2) Arrest the employers of illegals
3) Deport any illegals you can catch
4) Stop giving “citizenship” to illegals anchor kids
5) Read the GD Constitution
I even sent one of those “Gringo de Mexico” bills back to them.
Surprisingly, the mail from the RNC has dropped off considerably after the fourth one went back like that.
Like any other company, you’ve hit them where it hurts the most. And that almost always gets their attention.
Cheers,
