8. the best one for me included a "survey" and the last question was
NO! I don't want the Democrat party to have the presidency for the rest of my lifetime. Heres' $____ to stop them!

NO! I don't want.... but I cannot donate at this time.

YES! I want the Democrats to control the White House for the rest of my life so I am not sending a donation!



I checked AND circled the YES option and then laughed my ass of while putting it in my mailbox!

Haven't heard from them since.

Obviously, the photo has been modified to blank-out my return address.

The regular postman didn't take it, but the weekend guy did.

It's probably illegal to mail dog poop, but I'm not sure. Any lawyers of post masters in the house?

15. Could do a 1 penny donation on a credit card..
Edited on Sun Oct-28-07 08:53 PM by ticapnews
Not only is the RNC obligated to pay the postage on your letter, but if they process the 1 cent contribution, they get charged anywhere from $1-5 by the credit card company. So they are losing up to $4.99 on every transaction. A few million of those and they'd be bankrupt. :D
Also, if you use American Express, you can call them and ask them to double check the validity of the charge. AMEX charges "experience points" to each vendor and bills them every time a customer calls about a charge - even if the customer doesn't challenge the charge. :)

17. Does the $1 donation get you on their mailing list for every little thing?
It might be worth a buck or two to get on lots of lists so they waste $$ mailing more shit asking for money. :evilgrin:

Also, it is sorta helpful to get their emails. Gives you a head start on the week's talking points. Where I work, the previous chair warmer was on RNC email list. It was LOTS of fun getting a peak at what Ken Mehlman thought was helpful and motivating. :rofl:

21. Two Bits, and, on the pay to line, "Republican Congressional Criminal Defense Fund"
:rofl: and in the amount line, write, "my two bits." Save the memo line for something nice like, "Good luck with that."

13. I usually send a note saying it is illegal to send pornography
through the mail and say that I have also reported it to the Postmaster General. Some young child may receive the fascist propaganda and actually believe it. :dem:

donations to Dems by withholding healthcare for kids.

36. Dear RNC Syncophant,
Let me get this straight.

You want ME to pay for the priviledge of having YOU put more national debt on MY children?

Good luck with that.
