Cross Posted at : Hot Issues From Linn County Iowa
Perhaps I have been to judgmental in my polemics.
So I got to thinking in what areas have the New Executive Board been succeeding?
Those who were at the nomination meeting may recall that one of the major platform items presented was a Precinct Initiative to, as we were informed, replicate the success of the Obama Political Machine on Precinct level here in Linn County.
To Win Elections
Well the Obama Machine did win their Election.
What have they done since?
They have been busy slighting, insulting and alienating our Allies
Here we have seen the same results with Issue organizations that one would normally think of as Allies of Conservatives,
The Tea Party movement and the NRA, we have not shined in our relationship with either.
The Obama Machine has also been busy tearing down those institutions which have served us well the during this decade and helped keep us safe.
And here in Linn County?
In the last few months, the strong system of sub-committees formed to
organize Fund Raising and Volunteer Assembly has fallen by the Wayside.
We are told that the Executive Board will follow the wishes of the Central Committee,
If they so choose.
Both the Obama Administration and the New Executive Board have plans to spend far more than the income that seems to be available.
Though here in Linn County, I have yet to hear of any viable plans to raise funds
Other than moving the meeting out of the Longbranch to placate some mysterious big donors who do not wish to be sullied by too close a proximity between the Linn County Central Committee Meeting and Demon Rum.
Oh Yes I did over look ONE of the New, Fresh Ideas
They have created a method for us to donate money via automatic drafts from our Bank Accounts for them to use for whatever purposes they so desire, With or without consulting us, or getting our approval
All this reminds me of a Song
So I guess in some Areas they HAVE succeeded in carrying through with their campaign commitments.
So we sit and wait, Wait to be informed of matters that an amazing amount of folks seem to know before we do.
It would appear there is only one function desired of the Central Committee in the present times.
