Years ago, I was
friends with a brilliant & talented young woman who was passionate about
politics.
And very, very Republican.
And I was very, very not Republican.
She sent me a
subscription to the National Review.
She did not understand
that there is nothing more seductive to Jaki Jean than a man who can tell a
story, a man who can write.
It beats out
a hairy chest (and I was , am still, a
sucker for a hairy chest.)
Playing the piano or
singing runs a close second to a hairy chest.
But telling a story. Telling a story will drive me to my knees in
adoration.
Reading William F.
Buckley was a joy.
During that same time,
prior to George I, someone gave a bit
of money to the Republican National Committee in my name.
And I
have been on the RNC mailing list ever since.
Those of you who know
me get the irony.
Today I got another
letter from the RNC, the thick envelope with a Non-Profit US Postage Paid
Permit & an encryption: DO NOT
DESTROY OFFICIAL DOCUMENT.
That pisses me
off.
The SPECIAL NOTICE: You have
been selected to represent the voters in Texas' 22nd Congressional
District. That pissed me off.
Of course, if the RNC had any idea of who I was or how I
vote, they would not be polling me.
The questions asked
pissed me off. There was no choice to say: Are you
fucking kidding me?
There was a PS to the
RNC Chairman's cover letter:
Jaki, to win against
the massive Obama political juggernaut in November, our party must be better
funded & better organized than the Democrats every step of the way.
Actually, Reince Priebus, Chairman, RNC, a viable candidate might help
your cause.
Jean says that I
cannot write Are you fucking kidding me? across the pages of the poll.
I spent too much time
this afternoon calling the RNC to find someone to take my name off of their
mailing list.
When I encountered a
human voice, I was treated with courtesy & cheerfully transferred to
someone who I had been assured would help me.
A recorded voice.
And these people want
to take over the country.
Really? Are you fucking kidding me??????????????????????
