Samuel Adams

American Patriot & Politician

1722 - 1803

If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.

Hot Issues From Linn County Iowa

We Are All Toast Today

Have you noticed that for some people,  statements that begin with

 "It's none  of my business,"

 Seem to end with

"Let me jump right into your private affairs, wallow around in them and disclose to the world at large your deepest secrets." ???

 Remarkably like those who preface " I don't mean to hurt you" just prior to cutting out your heart and tossing it on the side of the road for the crows to peck at,

Our Iowa National Committeeman seems to have developed a fondness for two phrases

 "I traditionally stay out of presidential contested races,"

and

"He's toast in Iowa."

Now some might agree with Mr Scheffler as far as concerns 

 "Fred Karger, a longtime civil rights advocate in California who is gay and has announced he is running for president."

Iowa GOP committeeman to gay candidate: I’ll sink you

 But when the same litany is directed at Haley Barbour?

I mean for anyone recalling his actions during the Katrina Crisis, the man is a Conservative Icon.

Scheffler: Haley Barbour is ‘toast’ in Iowa

We are confronted with the ultimate result of Party Officials who take it upon themselves to decide who should represent us, rather than leaving that decision to us and the ballot box.

Of course this is not just limited to our National Committee Man but also our National Committee Woman

“My concern is Haley Barbour,” Lehman told Hotline OnCall in a phone interview today. “This is, in my opinion, poor leadership.”

Some of you may recall Ms Lehman and her complicity in negative campaign information directed at the 2cd District Republican Nominee in the 2008 GENERAL ELECTION.

Yes IMO partisan activity during a Primary is bad enough but to continue to attack the Nominee during the General Election?

Why do we still have in the RPI someone who helps elect DEMOCRATS??

If we continue to allow such activity in our State Party structure the only outcome will be as far as electing Republicans?

We will ALL be Toast.

I have some light reading for Mr Scheffler and Ms Lehman

 They sorely need a primer and to quote someone they illustrate

in my opinion, poor leadership

Name: "More Than One Issue"

Iowa's Republican National Committee "leaders" make toast on how their bread is buttered. They have personally profited from single issue causes. Doing so is at conflict with leading the Republican Party. 

Neither Steve Sheffler, nor Kim Lehman, are serving the best interests of the Republican Party. Their actions stand as proof they hold narrow issue causes that have served them above serving as leaders of the Republican Party. 

Steve Sheffler and Kim Lehman should resign their positions on the Republican Party of Iowa Central Committee. Iowa Republicans should at every opportunity remind Sheffler and Lehman to do so.

Name: "E Bernard Hayes"

A brief review of past and present Iowa GOP and National Platforms would show that Iowa Republicans and the Party as a whole are solid supporters of LIFE and MARRIAGE.  Why should we support those who differ from this position simply because they want to wear a "Republican" label?  They are not in the "mainstream" of the party and if they were truly honest, might find themselves "happier" with those folks on the other side of the aisle.

So you think Haley Barbour should be a Democrat?

Name: "Dan Kauffman"

PS Mr Barbour is supporting the REPUBLICAN candidate in that election

 The one ELECTED by Republicans in that State do you think you or anyone else should decide who represents THEM instead of leaving it to them????
