“The most dangerous place to stand in Washington is between Chuck Schumer and a camera.”
— Unattributed saying about Senator Chuck Schumer
Every election cycle, I get various fundraising letters from both political parties.
I always understood why I received them from Republican candidates.
I am a Republican.
However, for some strange reason, I also receive these letters from the Democratic Party as well.
Perhaps it’s because I live in California
What is more absurd is that these letters frequently address me as “Dear fellow Democrat.”
Last week, I received one such letter from Senator Charles Schumer, and it was hilarious.
And I thought the extreme right was crazy.
Check this out:
You have to admit, the hyperbole is quite entertaining.
Republicans also send their own hyperbole out to the masses, but they never sent me a nifty writing pad that said “Silence Democrat Lies.”
Perhaps the next slogan the Democratic Party sends me will say, “Burn GOP Books.”
Ridiculous.
I’ve subscribed to the New Republic, Reason and Weekly standard. I get a lot of GOP and Democratic solicitation as a result I think.
I subscribe to The Economist, Foreign Policy, and Foreign Affairs. Maybe these solicitations are related to those magazines then.
