It’s nearly the end of 2015, so, you want me to send you money so you aren’t out raised by Bernie/Hillary. What? What are you asking me for? You want me to give you my money so that you can apply for a job that is going to pay you millions if you get it? Are you out of your mind?
I’m not giving you any money! The Boys and Girls Club and the Homeless Shelter and the Humane Society and Toys for Tots needed money to help people (and animals) who aren’t already millionaires applying for a job that pays half a million a year for a guaranteed 4 years! Are you insane?
I have a family. It was just Christmas a few days ago. You think I tucked away some extra money I could have spent on them to give to your political ambitions? No, I spent every dollar I could and probably more than I should and I still have to pay to celebrate the New Year. Do you think I am going to give you some of that money? What planet do you live on?
Look, when the general starts, I’ll give whichever one of you wins the primary something to flush down the toilet on pointless television commercials. I don’t want to give you money, but I don’t want the lunatics on the right to flush the country down the toilet, so, I’ll send you something when you face them.
But I am not giving you a single penny for this primary. Not a single penny. None of you. It makes me sick that you are even asking, especially during the holidays. This is a primary not an general. Why the hell do you need millions of dollars to run in a primary?
Seriously. Why? It’s a primary. You’re preaching to the choir. You don’t need to get our attention. Just tell us what you are gonna do and let us look at your record and decide whether or not we like what you are proposing and believe that you’re going to follow through. How much does that cost?
I like his record. I like what she’s proposing. Now I just need a pen and paper so I can make a pro/con table and decide. What does that cost? Less than a dollar.
Politics IS upside down world. People asking for millions to apply for a job. And somehow, millions of people actually give it to them!
Well, I am not. Bernie/Hillary can cry me a river if Bernie/Hillary out fund raises them for the last quarter of 2015.
And note to self. Never sign a petition from a campaign ever again.
