Advice for the Obama fundraising people:

[Raven]

I get at least one email a day asking for $. When I respond with a donation, inevitably I get another email, often the same day, asking me for more $. I now have given all I can give. Today I received an email from Michelle about their 20th Anniversary...asking for $. I wish, just once and a while they would send an email simply saying "Thank You". Sometimes the troops just need a little pat on the back, that's all.

1. In full agreement w/u

In addition, the phone calls are increasingly and majorly IRRITATING for the ones we've called. Overkill...

2. I get that too

And what I didn't like was, they said they had my contribution info, but for some reason I had to give that again. That was the whole idea of how fast it was, but it failed.

3. I and partner get both

thank you's and requests , daily. We get photos, poster, all sorts of premiums, You are on the wrong lists. I have a load of pics, in duplicate*partner * I wish they could get that we are married, we've tried.

4. I know, they have me as "Janene" instead

of Jane...it's funny how annoying that is.

5. And the invites to Barack's last campaign dinner with the people..

They are non-stop and annoying.

6. Overkill

I'm now getting 15 to 20 requests a day. Voting proudly, but can't give any more.

7. Instead of bitching about it, can't you just UNsubscribe?

[Raven]

9. I think I'm entitled to bitch a little bit. Why would I

unsubscribe?

10. If it bothers you enough to make an issue of it here, it apparently causes you undue stress.

Most of us receive the exact same emails that you do, and haven't felt the need to start a thread about it. You're certainly free to do so, but I just thought "UNSUBSCRIBE" would be a less painful option for you. No biggie.

11. poor taste

[Tarheel_Dem]

13. Yeah, I agree, the o.p. was in "poor taste".

[H2O Man]

12. You shouldn't.

Your OP was fine.

8. E-mail is less annoying than snailmail.

Pounds and pounds of campaign donation solicitations in my mailbox every week. The good news is that my postwoman is still delivering. Few are opened. When I can, I contribute, that's all.
