I’M A “COMMITED CONSERVATIVE?”
|| By WILL FOLKS || So I got an important message this week from Katie Walsh, the chief of staff of the Republican National Committee (RNC).
Seriously …
Take a look at her email …
***
Hold up …
I’m a “leader in the conservative movement?”
And Katie wants to “reply to the chairman” and let him know I’m going to drop anywhere from $25-$100 on the “Republican” party?
According to her, “yes.” In fact here’s her forwarded message from RNC chairman Reince Priebus…
***
Wow!
So now I’m a “committed conservative?” One who needs to take the “next step” of donating to the party?
LOL.
We wonder … are there really people out there dumb enough to fall for this sort of political spam? Wait … don’t answer that.
They keep electing “Republicans” don’t they?
Mystery solved …

GT probably got you on that list, Will!
GT gets that email he sends them $20 or $30 of his conservative public assistance money.
I got the exact same spam except the name was changed to my first name. Mail Merge is a wonderful tool except when it’s not.
I didn’t know you were a leader in the conservative grass roots movement. So am l.
I didn’t know he was referred to as William.
The GOP really knows how to internet like it’s 1999.
They hip like flip phones.
I think that tactic is cheap as hell and does not represent the character of a party with whom I would like to be affiliated.
I am a moderate conservate, but I am not a republican.
LMAO! You are a Democrat.
What will count will not be email cash beggers, but the actual people calling voters and getting them to the polls.
I dunno Rocky. If they are such dolts that someone has to call them to spur them in to going to vote, they probably just close their eyes and vote for the person their finger lands closest to.
The ones who will likely count are the ones like us who, albeit we’ll probably vote differently in some races, care enough to check the issues important to them, weigh the candidates’ likely actions, and vote.
I actually did not get one of those emails. I’m probably too intelligent.
a lesson that keeps pounding me on the head, any time i think i am too intelligent, God give me a bitch slap. amen.
PRO TIP:
The three most common lies:
1) “I’m from the government and I’m here to help you.”
2) “The check is in the mail.”
3) “I won’t cum in your mouth.”
TBG believes our founding editor should use #2 and #3 in an email response.
All I got was “Your Recovery Phone Number Changed”

An elderly lady phoned her telephone company to report that her telephone failed to ring when her friends called – and that on the few occasions when it did ring, her pet dog always moaned right before the phone rang. The telephone repairman proceeded to the scene, curious to see this
psychic dog or senile elderly lady.
He climbed a nearby telephone pole, hooked in his test set, and dialed the subscriber’s house. The phone didn’t ring right away, but then the dog moaned loudly and the telephone began to ring. Climbing down from the pole, the
telephone repairman found:
1. The dog was tied to the telephone system’s ground wire via a steel chain and collar.
2. The wire connection to the ground rod was loose.
3. The dog was receiving 90 volts of signaling current when the phone number was called.
4. After a couple of such jolts, the dog would start moaning and then urinate on himself and the ground.
5. The wet ground would complete the circuit, thus causing the phone to ring.
Which demonstrates that some problems CAN be fixed by pissing and moaning.
That’s totally hilarious! I love the fake email from Reince.
yeah, you are a ‘committed conservative’. it means having a thoughtless response to every issue. no time or brains to consider the particulars, just ‘what would barry goldwater do’? labelling one’s self a ‘liberal’ or a conservative, or a ‘progressive’ is just an excuse for not being able to consider each issue on its own. guns and abortion don’t actually have anything to do with each other.
