Spin Dry

Today, I received one of those, "Hey, it's time to give us lots of money" mailers from the DNC. Normally, I'd just toss it in the trash, but this time, I'm going to use their business reply envelope, and let them pay the postage, to send them this message:

Hey, assholes -- you want my money, then do what we elected you to do last November. End the War in Iraq. Thanks to the Vote of May 24th, in which far too many Democratic senators caved, Bush has been given a blank check. Until your party grows some balls and actually works as an opposition party, I'll have nothing to do with you. So take your solicitation for cash and shove it. Until you prove to me that you're actually doing what we asked you to do last November, you don't deserve one thin dime. Until you start listening to people like Mike Gravel and stop kissing Nancy Pelosi's ass, you do not represent those of us who still chose to call ourselves Democrats.

Hope that gets their attention, but probably not. Sad to say, the mainstream Democratic party is just as bought and sold as the Republican party.

In the next Primary, vote "None of the Above" for president, unless your above includes Mike Gravel or Ron Paul.
