Different tack

We want you........
To go into debt for the party. The Democratic party, that is.
For this is what showed up in the mail on Friday at a neighbors house. A Visa credit card offer.
It has 1% rebate on purchases and a 0% interest on balance transfers until Nov 2005.
You can donate your 1% rebate to the DNC, if you want too. But you got to be a fool to take this
card for it comes with a 24.99% base interest rate. Which says a lot to me, about what Democrat
leaders think about their constituents. I mean really ,what sort of person is going to make him
or her self get a card that has an interest rate over 15% in the first place.

This is at the core of the Democrats problem's, as I see them. Democrats think that what you
earn is not really your money. It is the parties or the nations. For you do not know how to best
use this money and it is unfair that some people may have less than you. So, it is your
responsibility to make those peoples life better. But since you may be too self-centered to do
that, we will use the government to make you comply. Of course, we know that the rich will
pay only the minimum possible, including rich Democrats. So we must continue destroying the
middle class to pay for our social programs. But trust us, we know what is best.

Comments:
I had to truth-check this. And, well, it made good sense for me to do so. "The base rate" is NOT 24.99%. That is the default rate. If your credit is good, it's 9.99%. Kind of like any other credit card. The 1% rebate on new purchases CAN be dontated to the DNC. Purely optional. You either need to fact-check your information or you need to be more honest with yourself and others before forming and stating such strong opinions. It can make you appear foolish. (JB)
 
JB,
You truth-checked this? I do not know how since I have the actual documents in my house. But you are partially right. The base rate in the offer is 23.99%, the default ate is 24.99%. I have to get a hello account, so I can post the picture of these documents. I could show them to Ken tommorrow but I know you don't believe him either.
 
I pulled it off of the Providian web site. It stated that the interest rate was 9.99 to 15% or some such(based as they all are on your credit rating) and the default rate was 24.99%. There were a number of different Providian Visa offers with a number of different sponsors. I saw it for myself. (JB) Nobody's weeping here. Go check it out.
 
JB,
the next post is a screen shot, it is unaltered. Ken has seen the documents in question and can verify what I posted is true. You went to the providian website?
Which one? Was this your offer?
Here is the link to Providians basic platinum visa with a 9.99 to 19.99 rate. with a default of prime + 24.99%.
