the rnc wants ME to fill out their 'census' form
that's right, ed gillespie, rnc chairman, sent me a 'republican party census document' along with a request for money to defeat the democrats. they have such a great need for money because democrats can count on so much money from 'some unions and every liberal interest group'.

and it came with a self-addressed envelop with postage paid by addressee. my favorite!

check out some of the 'questions':

- do you support president bush's initiatives to promote the safety and security of all americans? (kinda vague, hmm, shall i come out against safety and security? how about telling us that you mean random searches, seizures and indefinite imprisonment without trials?)

- do you support the use of air strikes against any country that offers safe harbor or aid to individuals or organizations committed to further attacks on america? (oh, all we're doing in afghanistan and iraq is AIRSTRIKES?

- do you continue to support increasing the amount of security at airports, train stations, and all government buildings including monuments and museums? (continue? as if you've done such a good job already? wait, museums? MUSEUMS need armed guards in camouflage with semiautomatic rifles now?)

- should the inheritence of "death tax" be permanently repealed? (yawn)

- do you support president bush's pro-growth policies to create more jobs and improve the economy? (bah ha ha ha ha !!! WHAT pro-growth policies?!? oh, wait, no, i'm ANTI-growth. this is the most idiotic question ever)

- should small businesses be encouraged to grow and hire more workers? (oops, spoke too soon! THIS is the most idiotic question ever! no, small businesses should be required to fire more people!?!? ugh!)

- do you support president bush's plan to make our schools more accountable to parents and to restore local control of education? (do you support shrub's plan to make good education unaffordable and/or replaced with fundamentalist christian indoctrination?)

- should students, teachers, principals and administators be held to higher standards? (no, i'm in favor of low standards all around. sheesh.)

- do you agree that teaching our children to read and increasing literacy rates should be a national priority? (no, i'm in favor of illiteracy. wtf????)


you get the idea. these are some of the stupidest questions ever. well, i'm sure they won't really be using the results anyway, it's probably just another ruse to convince people to send in money....

bleechhhh.

1. Well, since some individuals committed to...
further attacks on America are likely in America, then I guess an air strike on Detroit is a good idea...no, wait, there are museums there. This is so confusing. Aren't there any of those easy questions about abortion? (sarcasm off)

3. why, of COURSE there's an abortion question
and it's equally fair and balanced:

- do you support the new law, passed by the republican congress and signed by president bush, the bans partial-birth abortion? ('partial-birth', now that's not a predjudicial description of the procedure, is it? oh, and, that pretty much covers the whole issue, right, i mean, most abortions are at least partial-birth, right?)

2. Wow, impressive
It sounds like they really want to know what their supporters think of them. NOT! hahahaha

#1 Are we great, or are we great?
#2 Do you support every stupid policy enacted by George Bush, or do you hate America?

5. If you can... fill it out the way you want...
and use your favorite freepers name and address.

Need to check to see if they have any barcode or other id means and disable it.
