Your Invitation from Newt Gingrich
Trolling through my e-mail spam collector stacked high with the usual Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, Starwood, press releases etc. from both Democrats and Republicans, I was chagrined to actually open what I knew would be the usual rantings from the Right, an invitation to join Newt Gingrich and his band of merry men at the round table for a chicken dinner. I personally know several Republicans who would be only too happy to shell out the bucks for this golden opportunity.
"Our country has a hostile, Democrat-controlled Congress and a popular Democrat president - much like we did in the early 90s - and they are intent on pushing their liberal agenda at our expense. We were up against similar electoral odds in 1994, but we were able to win back a Congressional majority with core conservative ideals to move the power out of Washington and give it back to the American people."
Wow! A chance to sit at the same table with Newt Gingrich and listen to hours of rabid rousting from the far right, who can resist such an offer? All I need to do is send $50 and join the lottery! Well actually, I can because I would rather have a tooth extraction than "... And I'd be honored if you were sitting at my table to discuss the future of our Republican Party."
Once again: Earth to Newt and Friends, isn't this why you lost the 2008 elections? Maybe 65 million voters chose to make a significant change in how our country is being run because of your views!
"I'll put I it this way; its time to end Nancy Pelosi's reign as Speaker by supporting the NRCC's efforts to take back a Congressional majority. Our nation, our national security and our private enterprise depend on this change. As a special thank you to all the contest entrants, you'll receive exclusive access to the live webcast of my speech courtesy of the NRCC. So, please take a few minutes to make a special contribution and I hope to see you at my table on the 8th.
Your friend,
Newt Gingrich
P.S. Don't forget every time you enter you increase your chances to join me at the dinner. Please visit www.nrcc.org/dinnerwithnewt before May 31st at midnight to make your contribution. I look forward to meeting you. -Newt"
Newt, you aren't my friend & the last thing I would want to do is sit through a dinner posing as a true believer, I'm not an actress!
This is one way to get my e-mail address removed from the NRCC list serve!
