I'm watching Martin Bashir and ust saw an infomercial for ROMNEYELECTFUND.ORG!

It was BEGGING people to call this number to donate money and a "voice petition" to "roll the clock back" to elect Romney! The are asking TEA-BIGOTS and "conservanuts" everywhere to call "RIGHT NOW". If this isn't desperation, I don't know what is!

Apparently, the premise ifs that if they can get 5Million signatures, they can elect Romney and prevent the reelection of President Obama.

I filled out the form (it accepted "b@yahoo.com" and "b" for my first and last names, so it's not super picky) and got a page saying "thank you for your pledge!" Unfortunately, because of me (or, to be more precise, b) they now have one of the 5,000,000 pledges--not dollars, but pledges--they seem to think it will take to rid the country forever of Obama. Umm... I don't think that's how it works.....

LOL--the thank-you page is also a page where you can make a donation (of course) and one of the options is $50,000. Bwahaha! Yeah, I'll get that $50,000 PayPal payment to you right away. The page isn't even secure. What an amateur operation.
