is it just me?
April 19, 2008 by Betmo

i continuously get calls for donations from the democratic party in the mail. usually, i just write on the envelope ‘no impeachment=no money’ but i decided to contact someone at headquarters via email. i mean seriously. who in their right mind would donate to the party of pelosi who won’t hold any member of bushco accountable for anything? or reid who won’t cut off funding for the illegal war in iraq? or who woud donate money to fund hillary clinton’s campaign based on innuendo, put downs, and outright lies? not me. i am going to change my affiliation soon (on the downlow i expect to be moving in a few weeks) and i will change it to independent. here is my email to dnc:
“i felt compelled to contact directly after receiving several pleas for donations. i won’t be contributing to the democratic party because i feel that the democratic party has let it’s members down. from the shameful sidestepping on issues like ending funding for the iraq war; to the outright refusal to hold any member of the bush regime accountable for anything; to the shameful display that hillary clinton has put on almost her entire campaign- i am ashamed to be a democrat. as a matter of fact, i am changing my affiliation to independent before the election. the democratic party was given a mandate by the people of this country and it has squandered it by pandering and playing the waiting game for the 2008 elections. i realize that my email means exactly nothing- but i felt that i should let you know.”

Good evening, Betmo. That was one great message! Your e-mail was not in vain, because you have many of us standing right there with you on this. I strongly agree with the entire comment.
Pelosi should rot in hell. And her little dog, Reidrover, too!
Excellent points you make here. I like that answer no ipeachment, no money. They did not deliver.Not even close. The clear mandate was to get (the hell) out of Iraq & they have squandered it. The blood is on their hands.
fran’s last blog post..Disclosure, my friends…..
Be nice if the Democratic party apparatus actually responded to your email…
I mirror many of your feelings, but I have actually sent some money to the California Democratic party, I am hopeful (Pollyanna that I am) that if we can replace more Republicans with Democrats in Congress, that maybe the Democratic party will regain some backbone.
But of course, that might not even help, if the new Democratic blood just bows to the special interests.
