As a long
time Blue Dog Democrat I have yet to tell the Democratic National Committee to
pack sand. Hence, I’m still on their mailing list. Don’t know why, haven’t
given them any money in years. They recently
sent a mailing piece. It was an oversized legal style envelope with, in the
upper left corner, large font, PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA. Centered on the envelope were the
words Do you still have
my back? Below that in
small letters my name and address. The contents are shown here, should you have
the stomach to read them.
To me, this
letter reeks of fear. Of course, that is a motivator in many a fund raising
letter, and stump speech, but this seems more strident than usual.
Since they
enclosed a prepaid envelope, I will send it back empty and without the stamp.
The small gift
mentioned in the P.S. will find a home on the bumper of someone I dislike. Yes,
I’m mean and petty that way.
