I'm undercover behind the Orange Curtain helping my elderly father prepare to move into assisted living. For several months he has been deluged by right wing fundraising mills with hateful anti-Obama screeds. Today brought a new batch, including one with the delightful message in the title featured prominently on the envelope.
More of the usual crap after the jump down the rabbit hole...
I can't describe my elation at uncovering this treasure trove of concentrated hate and stupidity. The so-called petition was a compilation of birther idiocy. Unfortunately, that one didn't have a postage prepaid envelope (but I thought it was worth a postage stamp to reply!). Suffice to say, my reply was suitably colorful and the word racist featured prominently.
(NOTE: I removed my father's name and address from all material.)
Another one was from the Traditional Values Coalition's subsidiary for Chrstian Seniors headed by Lou Sheldon's son-in-law. I told them I was "having nasty gay anal sex" in their honor.
The last one was from the National Republican Senatorial Committee. The message "you lost, deal with it" featured prominently.
IIRC, you can no longer tape a prepaid envelope to a brick and make them pay for it. But I believe you can still stuff the envelope with all their paper and send it back on their nickel.
Yes, it's a petty, small, tacky gesture. And I feel like I need a cigarette (and I don't even smoke).
