This isn't a Grand Ole Party, It's a Fiasco!
Copy of an email sent to the RNC in August 2007
A decade or so ago, I used to contribute over $1000 to the RNC. This was in the days of the PROACTIVE Contract for America. The reason I’ve dropped contributing to the RNC is the
RNC and GOP are totally reactive with an almost total lack of anything
Proactive.
A Deer in headlights has more of a clue
about what to do
that the GOP leadership!
* Take the issue of the Dems Senate holding another Bush
judicial appointee hostage. The Dems do this because they KNOW the RNC
won’t do anything about it until it becomes a crisis — REACTIVE, not
PROACTIVE.
- * The Dems are making all sorts of noise about socializing our
health care system — the RNC well who knows? — it’s REACTIVE, not
PROACTIVE. Worse, the RNC/GOP reaction is we’ll support the Democrats
push for socialized health care, only not as fast! WHAT A CROCK!
- * Ditto about the Iraq War (there’s more teens volunteerly
killed each year driving than are volunteerly killed serving in WHOLE
Iraq War — who’s getting that info out there!!!???)
- * Ditto about energy (Corn diverts millions of gallons of oil
to make corn, adding to global warming and making gasoline more scarce,
hence more EXPENSIVE — who’s getting that info out there!!??),
- * Ditto about taxes (the Dems are all about raising taxes —
they don’t even need to do anything, just let the Bush taxes lapse —
hell they don’t even need to be PROACTIVE on taxes, just do nothing
because the RNC and GOP are so PROACTIVELY inept, they’ll never get
anything done to fight it. WOW — tax cuts that expire while you’ve got
a majority — what an incredibly STUPID idea!
- * Ditto about most everything….
GET A CLUE RNC!
Many of the GOP faithful are PROACTIVE, not REACTIVE people… The typical GOP are:
- * Small business folks and their employees,
- * Parents of kids who do parenting BEFORE not AFTER problems erupt,
- * People who are PROACTIVELY investing in their pensions, health care.
- * Etc, etc, etc..
GET A CLUE RNC!
The GOP faithful expect PROACTIVE leadership, not REACTIVE fools who determine what to do by the latest poll.
Oh, by the way, the RNC web site is incredibly lame. It’s all about
giving you money? Money to do what? More of the same old same old
REACTIVE EARMARK NOTHING — NO WAY…. A quality website should be all
about providing a means for GOP folks to interact and develop ideas
about how to move the GOP forward. The money will come when you provide
leadership of quality proactive ideas that folks can get behind.
Yes, I did get a response. They were supposedly going to review my letter at a leadership meeting…
