...with his impassioned plea for funding for the 2008 election cycle.
He listed the accomplshments of Ms. Pelosi, and the new majority in the House (Minimum Wage Act, lobbying reform, 9-11 commission standards, etc).
He implored (quite correctly) that the DCCC needed more cash in order to "fight off" the "right-wing smear machine", and that my ACTION was needed TODAY!
My response???
That, I needed to see some "ACTION" from our current Democratic congressional majority regarding the END of the Iraq war, and the re-deployment of our troops!
That I need to see some "ACTION" from this Congress in investigating exactly on whose behalf (Cheney, GWB) 'Scooter' Libby was lying and obstructing justice!
That I would NOT be donating to the DCCC, or any other campaign committee, until I see some BIG changes in the tenor of the Dem leadership on Capitol Hill!
I did, however, kinda feel sorry for the poor guy afterward--I mean he was just a guy volunteering his time, and I gave him a buch of crap! :)
I just want these folks in Congress to know just how DIS-SATISFIED I am with the LACK of backbone they've shown toward this president, and his incompetence!!!
Fellow Kossacks, what is YOUR opinion?
Should I have contributed $$$ to the cause?
Or is it better to hold out, and let THAT do the talking, in hopes that the DEM leadership will actually HEAR???
Let's face it MONEY (in this case, the LACK thereof) talks!
