“Are you for real?”

Jeff G. writes another pitch-perfect response to a Democratic politician’s fund-raising request.
You are everything our Founding Fathers worried about when they tried to place limits on federal power. Barack Obama has called us -- the constitutionalists and promoters of the free market, who want less government and more individual freedom -- "enemies."

And in a sense he's right: some of will not stand by while our children and grandchildren are enslaved to future debt they can't possibly ever pay back. We will not stand by while you use the politics of envy to surreptitiously rob of us of our liberties and further expand your reach into every aspect of our lives. Which I suppose makes us the enemies of those who claim to love America, even as they demand it's "fundamental transformation," which includes an escape from the constraints of a "flawed document" like the Constitution.

So no, I won't give you a dime.
Jeff is one of the most impassioned and eloquent writers in blogdom. Read the whole thing.

I get about two a week of those. I keep them for the humor. I just love how they troll away for 3-5 bucks. And the air of desperation in their pleadings. Can't forget that. And the outright lies.
