I can't believe it. [View all]

I just received an e-mail from "Speaker" Boner's office. They even had the nerve to ask me if I wanted to get updates from his office. I answered the email this way. I'm sure it will be tossed, but at least I felt good writing to them. Here is my message:

Are you kidding me??? I certainly didn't sign up for your emails and I don't know where you found my name and e-mail address to send me any messages from "the speaker." At one time I was a republican, but by reagan's second term, I knew I had to change party affiliation and went Independent. Then after the disastrous years of the bush administration, I knew I had to become a Democrat. I worked on the Obama campaign in 2008 and look forward to working to re-elect President Obama again this time. The republican party has certainly morphed into a party of hate, un compromise, and a party that cares only for the wealthy and not the real American people
