US Senate GOP hurts local BPOUs
Posted by Andy on May 10th, 2005
I am still alive. The project at work has been quick interesting. Our phone and DSL lines were cut yesterday, and didn’t get fixed til noon. Makes it kinda hard to throw a quick post.
But I’m here. I don’t know what is going on out in the real world.
But I heard the President give a great speech in Georgia.
The judges are still not being voted on.
And the Federal RINOS’s are now affecting my local BPOU. What sucks, is that I am the Chair of Senate District 51 Republicans, and I just had to send out a fundraising letter and ask people to give us money. I knew the judge issue would make or break it. So far it seems to be breaking it. I have a very bad feeling about this one.
I just got home to a message from one of the grassroots Republican supporters, and he is really POed at the judge thing too. He is considering switching parties, since the Dems at least do something. That being a flawed argument, but it just goes to show you that whenever the RNC folks try to be nice, it just simply POs its base, and never attracts anyone from the Left.
So by the acts of a few RINOs in DC, my local BPOU is forced to deal with the grass roots and explain just what they are doing down there. It is really hard to do that when you agree with the guy that what good does it do to be a Reepublican. I won’t become a commie any time soon, but I do question the rational of supporting a party who can’t do anything.
If the Senate GOP doesn’t go Constitutional, the local grassroots are dead. I can’t AND WON’T defend the RINOs in DC pulling an ARORA.

Some of the judges Bush appointed are extremists - Bill Pryor and Priscilla Owens are two that come to mind - and don’t belong as judges. Scalia certainly is an example of that - the guy is an activist judge in every sense of the term - who has said that our government derives it’s legitimacy from God, rather than from - as the constitution says - “we the people.”
