I got a letter today from the national gop congressional committee
wanting me to complete a survey and, of course, send them money. An old buddy of mine, almost as liberal as me, thought it would be funny to send them my name and address. He's a sick motherfucker but I do love him and he votes for the dems. There are 18 questions with the basic line - Do you want us to continue to fuck the country with the rock hard leadership of george bush? Signed, lovingly dennis hastert.

Gosh, I might need some suggestions on what to do with the postage paid envelope?!?!?

1. Fill out the survey with typical BOSSHOG comments and return it

after you've inserted a large quantity of junk mail into the envelope! Why not? It's postage paid. ;)

3. So simple, yet so complex
Thanks Cotton Bear. Be myself. I love it; cause as you may know, I can be somewhat rough on those gop type humanoids.

12. You are welcome!

Somehow, Mr. CB got on the RNC mailing list. I have a lot of fun filling out the survey forms and then filling the envelopes as full as possible before mailing.
Hint: Use tape to reinforce the envelope and then you can really stuff it full! ;)

2. How many of the questions involved some kind of fear tactic?
All of them? ;-)

8. In a nutshell, my interpretation of the questions
- do you hate gays?
- should we revisit roe v wade?
- do you want more family "values?
- Is a little inconvenience worth the price of security?
- Is it time to fuck retirees with some slickly written alternative retirement plan?
- Do you agree with our plan to destroy Medicare?
- Would you like to see all criminals lined up and shot?
- Would you like to see all immigrants lined up and shot? Maybe a double feature with the previous question?
- Do you, like us republicans, hate diversity?
- Are you so fucking scared that you have to vote for us?

That, in a nutshell, is their questionnaire.

7. Recycle.
I cut up mail order catalogs and old magazines (heavy paper) and neatly stuff as much as I can in the envelope. You know it's correct when you need scotch tape to keep the lid closed.

I've been doing this for years to all those credit card offers. I stuffed an envelope one time that seemed to be a winner. When I went to the PO, the guy behind the counter told me the overdue postage on that return envelope would cost around $2.70.

16. Postage paid envelope revenge
Fill up a box with up to 72 pounds of stuff and tape the envelope to the side of it. It's perfectly legal. More details at:

11. rock hard leadership hahahahaha
reminds me of a piece by, i think. The Rude One, where he said something like "If Bu$h took a dump on the WH lawn, the press would be falling all over each other to proclaim how strong and unwavering the dump was".
