My dad was sent a note saying he was a Platinum member of the GOP

[kick-ass-bob]

where less than 1% of Republicans are given this great honor!

We wondered aloud, 'well, how many dems have gotten this honor?'

He hasn't been a registered Republican in more than 35 years!

1. I got one too! My mom framed it as a joke cuz she know they were

digging the bottom of the well to send me one!

Did your dad also get a pix of chimpy and pickles?

[kick-ass-bob]

2. he did!

he put it up on his refrigerator to see how long it would take me to see it.

I saw it at first glance at the fridge...

5. My old CIO got that stuff ...

not only is he a liberal - he got them framed as a joke, but he's CANADIAN!

3. The GOP is phishing just like the credit card compainies are

trolling for new victims.

6. I'm surprised I haven't gotten one since I'm an Independent.

:shrug:

I guess they'd rather troll the 40 year old GOP records
:shrug:

4. I'm on their list, too.

I always send something back to them in their postage paid envelope. It would be rude not to. :evilgrin:

[kick-ass-bob]

8. I should tell my dad that.

I don't think it has crossed his mind.

:bounce:

16. How about...

taping that envelope (and several others) around a large heavy rock?

It's not like they can't afford it. They have more money than they know what to do with! :P

10. Liberal bumper stickers make a thoughtful gift.

worth a couple bucks just to annoy them.

A couple od evilDUers said they actually sned checks, for $5 or less. Keeps them on mailing lists so they get all kinds of usueful GOP newsletters, AND it costs the GOP more than the little contribution to do all the paperwork and further mailings so it ends up being a financial drain. Maybe we all should do that if we get mailings from them.

Does make one wonder what mailing lists they are buying and who is selling our names and addresses.

11. I would think....

that one of Fargo's squished up turds would make quite a statement.

Ya want one? :D I'm just sayin...

14. LOL!

If you send something like that, you gotta make sure it's not one of those envelopes with your return address pre-printed on it. They do that sometimes. Tricky devils.

That kitty looks like a real character. :)

[fudge stripe cookays]

15. She is!

And if you guys make it to the party you can meet her (maybe). She'll probably go hide under our bed; that's kind of her thing when new folks come over.

But she's usually a holy terror. We call her "Satan's Monkey." She SERIOUSLY has a monkey run! Sort of that weird crooked crossways leap.

7. I keep getting invites to professional networking seminars

from groups I've never heard of, "small business" counselors and such. I never used to get these. I think they are "raiding" us, trying to flatter some people by saying they are part of their aristocracy.

9. Wonder if someone slipped a donation in his name?

[kick-ass-bob]

12. now that I think of it, they may actually use the name.

His parents were GOP convention delegates in the 50's - 80's

13. I'm sorry to hear that. How long has he been incarcerated?

:evilgrin:
