send a donation to the GOP ending with .58.

http://www.blogsforbush.com/mt/archives/006442.html

Thank The GOP!
It seems that lately we are more apt to criticize the GOP for not doing things the way we'd like... Now we have something we ought to thank them for. Show your thanks to the GOP for supporting President Bush's nomination of Samuel Alito, and helping to make his confirmation possible.

Send them a donation ending in $.58... $10.58, $20.58, $50.58, $100.58, etc. etc.

Remember, tonight when you prepare to watch the State of the Union, Samuel Alito will be walking into the chamber with Justices Scalia, Thomas, and Roberts... Without President Bush and a Republican majority, this wouldn't be possible.

Show your appreciation by sending the GOP a donation ending in $.58... $10.58, $20.58, $50.58, $100.58, etc. etc.

1. How about we send them a note saying that they owe us
$58,000 instead? They're screwing things up, the least they could do is pay us off.

2. Would rather send it to Kennedy and Kerry or anyone else that is running

against the D Senators that failed us.

ie: Rick Chapman here in Florida has filed to run against Bill Nelson, Rick's site will be up in the near future and then we can send all the donations we want/need to.

3. What is the significance of .58 cents?
Does it stand for 58 lies?

Am I missing something here?

7. Actually, send them 1 cent
It will cost more to process the payment than the penny they make. If we all contributed a penny to the GOP they'd go broke :)

9. It's true :)
The overhead on processing a payment is between $1 and $2. If 10,000 people sent a penny they would gain $100 and lose over $10,000 processing the payments. Great way to bankrupt them.
