Really, what are they thinking? I don’t consider myself a Republican. Actually, I am not a Democrat either. This kind of “either-or” categories is inadequate to describe my political views. I may be a green liberal conservative socialist.

Today I received this solicitation in the mail, which made me laugh – just a day late to be an April Fool’s joke. The Republican National Committee wants me to “renew” my “membership” with them immediately, if not sooner.

They sound really urgent, since we only have 20 months left until the next presidential election. What I didn’t quite understand, though, was how I could “renew” a membership that I never had?
