They say those who forget the Past are doomed to repeat it.

Recently I got to thinking about one of the First Hate Mail Letters I recieved and a portion of it came to mind.

My reaction was

That's not right.

here it is. 

This blogger is reminiscing about the past ten years of the Linn County Republican Central Committee. But where is his reality ... lost in the night sky? Buried under a rock? Fell into the toilet? He revels in the past performance of the LCRCC. Interesting because his memory is delusional, they didn't elect a single Republican.  

That is certainly an extreme statement.

At First glance one might assume it is true, because after all it would be a matter of public record would it not? 
 

Of course it is and the record of the sucess or failures of the Linn County Republican Party can be found

Here in 

Election Results 2000-2015

 And when we look there we can find that what the person who on that letters return address calls themself A Real Republican claims i

Dead Wrong 

 For example just a little over 10 years ago we had this result in the 2004 Election 

ROGER GROBSTICH DEM 8360 48.33%

KRAIG PAULSEN REP 8928 51.61%

Write-in Votes 11 0.06% 

 Yes our own Kraig Paulson who is now Speaker of the House was Elected.

As well as 9 other Republcans in Local Elections one of them being Mary Lundby. 

In latter years other Republcans also got elected and of course Mr Paulsen continued to be re elected.

Now the question before us seems to be

Is Mr Real Republican

Forgetful

Ignorant

Has their own unique definition  of the phrase "

they didn't elect a single Republican.  

which would mean that they also have their own unique definition of

 delusional

Or is Mr Real Republican simply Lying to create the Illution of a Truth that does not exist because they believe we are too STUPID to look up the Public Record? 

It is not like the members of the LCRCC have not had that happen to them in the not so distant past. 

Still I have a hard time understanding the thinking of someone who Lies about something that is in the Public Record

I mean this IS the 21st Century you can with a few clicks of your mouse pull up the Recordon your Monitor

Then I recall Mr Real Republican DID send this to me via an envelope with a Stamp on it

So maybe they are stuck in the Past

But it does seem to be a Past of their own Creation and not the one the Restof the World shares.
