Your point was the struggle for me but it just felt hypocritical of me to sign a pledge against a committee that I won't donate to or support anyway. Amy - I struggled a bit with this one.

However, I think the point of the Pledge is to show our party leaders, whoever they are, that we will not tolerate a resolution that Sec. Defense Gates said will "embolden the enemy". I think signing it will only make your point even more, that you're unhappy with some of the current leadership whom you wouldn't vote for anyway.
