The Next Right's Jon Henke -- who called for a conservative boycott of WorldNetDaily and conservative groups who support it through advertising and renting its mailing list -- has tried to get a response out of the Republican National Committee, one of the groups that has rented WND's mailing list, “to inquire about it and encourage them to stop.”

It's not going well. The first response was: “Pls note that we have already weighed in on the birther issue -- weeks ago. Thanks.” To that was appended a New York Times article containing another response to the birther issue. Henke nnotes:

So, the sum total of the RNC's response was (a) Obama is “a U.S. citizen”, but (b) we want to ignore this Birther story, (c) we're not saying whether or not we're working with the Birthers, and (d) we're just going to completely ignore the actual question you asked.

Henke then sent more questions, to which the RNC has yet to respond. Henke concludes:

In the 1960's, Goldwater and a few Republicans had the integrity and guts to denounce the irresponsible fringe in the fevered swamps of the Right. Today, as far as I can tell, the Republican National Committee works with them.
