Got a call last night from the Obama camp begging for donations.

Me: He doesn't get one more damn dime until he grows a spine.

Caller: Don't you care about what the Republicans are doing?

Me: Yes. Does the President?

Caller: If you don't support him, then the Republicans will make even more headway.

Me: I never said I wasn't voting for him. He's better than the alternative. But now I have to actually think a little bit before I make that statement.

Caller: Your attitude just makes it more likely the Republicans will regain even more control over policy.

Me: Really? It's like you folks STILL haven't gotten the message from the mid-terms. Now matter how much Obama 'reaches out', it ain't gonna work. No matter how much he sells out liberals, Republicans won't support him. And he'll just keep his 'base' dispirited and possibly at home not voting at all. Goodbye. (I hang up)

I hope the drone relayed this message up the chain.
