(To the original sender) I'm a Republican. I probably share many of your opinions. I'm for keeping the Pledge in public schools.
But spam email is not a proper or appropriate place to spread this or any message of this type. It is rude and furthermore it is an abuse of our google group because it is completely off subject. Please refrain from spreading political e-mails in non-political forums. It is an embarrassment to whoever you are supporting and gives people legitimate reasons to ignore you.

I received a really offensive anti-Obama e-mail this morning.
I was about to email the sender and request that my name be removed from his/her mailing list, and I accidentally hit the "Send" key on my computer. As a result of my error, I may have accidentally recirculated the email I found offensive.
In any event, I would like to have my name removed from the free-penguin_org mailing list.

The offensive thing is the fact that it was sent out as spam email. It would be appropriate freedom of speech / First Amendment stuff if this were a political forum about the election, which it is not.
