Call the office and tell them in no uncertain terms that as a Republican you are sick of him following the crazy and that the Tea Party is hurting the GOP. Butter them up with things like the GOP used to stand for limited government, growing the economy, and for America to be a leader on the world stage but today it just stands for crazy.

Try not to vomit while saying that.
