In reply to the discussion: What I said to the OFA fundraiser who called me [View all]TheKentuckian
(25,018 posts)54. So after we "compromise" away everything what will we have achieved?
You continue to do good by passing that feedback up the chain and hope that our "lords" deign to listen.
Why indeed are supporters putting you on blast? If these people cared about the country they'd at least look at why people that donated early and often or worked the campaign are fit to be tied.
Some of the people blowing up on you made the same damn calls, they know. They are trying to get their thoughts and feelings heard, someone hat and hand is an ear.
If you wish to move the country forward then pass on the feedback, if no one gives a fuck then how are we moving the country foward with arrogant or disengaged or whatever motherfuckers wearing the white hats?
