Republican National Committee

markets itself as a non-profit, just like Tom DeLay's charities, Rick Santorum's charities, UNICEF and Habitat for Humanity. But there's an important difference.

Although anyone has a right to ask their representatives to support or fight a piece of legislation, those RNC assholes pay themselves to lobby themselves.

Lobbyist organizations like Abramoff's, Ralph Reed's, Santorum's, Pat Robertson's, etc. really ought to pay taxes to support their right to exercise rights in a free country, where everything's free only if you don't pay for it.

So the RNC sent me a nonprofit postage-paid voter registration form with Smirky G on the front. Some banners:
"Winning the War on Terror", although we've had to admit terrorist incidents have risen drastically under Bush and since Iraq.
"Securing our Borders" by granting Dubai-based shipping company access to our territory.
"Growing our Economy" by swelling mortgages and credit debt, transferring resources free-of-charge to profitable companies like Exxon.
"Restraining Government Spending" on some things like help for people or quality of lives, but in the aggregate spending more than anyone in history.

It goes on to cite record-low unemployment, meaning it's good to lose your job and take two to replace your salary. Obligations don't go away, especially since they've changed bankruptcy law from the easy pass it was when GWB got his.
Disingenuous, the count isn't based on hired people, just people no longer looking for work.

MoveOn and PFAW solicit input from Americans from time to time. WHat should they do to help save the democracy? Attack. Perhaps the most serious issue in the 2006 elections should be the lies, theft and ulterior motivation of the ruling party and its membership, who clearly must profit.

Not-for-profit my ass!

(I deliberately renamed Ralph Reed as Rex a few years ago, intending to merge the two identities: The useless, effeminate and somehow slightly popular Rex is a movie critic. Ralph is the useful, effeminate tool of the Armageddonist anti-Free Nazi Party of Faith, with illegal fraud money income, lobbyist cash, more access to your representatives than you, and probably a slightly sore asshole from the time he 'tried it' in college.)

Joe, I think you know that our good friend Mr. Reed's first name is actually Ralph, but Rex does seem to fit him, given its Latin meaning and his ambitions...

Rex is a good name for a dog.
