The Green Slush Fund is designated to test the stupidity level of Leftists.

If the grown woman was truly raped, why did she wait decades to seek justice, and did she pay for her lawyers, since the statute of limitations had run, or did someone else?

Bid Bob: You seem to be the authority on this case, so please explain, and also, please drop the Leftist clichés.

That is simply crooked New York "justice", Bobbie.

Joe Biden has never been held to account for his digital (with his finger) rape of Tara Reade, who was his Senate employee. Bill Clinton and Al Gore have never been held to account for their multiple sexual assaults / Rapes. Yet Jean Carroll can extract money on a made up fantasy.

Back on planet earth - A judge is deciding how much Trump will have to pay for raping Jean Carroll.
MAGA - completely unfit to govern.

Again it doesn’t matter if there was a letter. It was never given to the BCGOP at the time. Anything that was produced today would not be the original. Also you need to stop comparing yourselves to Reagan & Trump. That is a true insult to the two men. Hood has been lying to the voters for years. Time for him to go so he can take his naps on his own time instead of own taxpayers time.

A Democrat scheme to boost Haley's vote did not work so well in Iowa, but according to the radio this afternoon they are trying the same thing in New Hampshire. Democrat rigging of their own nomination process included disallowing New Hampshire's traditional primary date and they have been stripped of delegates by the DNC because they would not go along. Biden did not even ask to be on the ballot, so that leaves lots of Democrat voters able to make mischief in the GOP primary. According to what I heard on the radio today, Democrat operatives are knocking on doors asking identified Democrat voters to "hold their nose for Haley" in the GOP primary in order to hurt Trump. Unforturnately, the Republican primary is an open primary to everyone, so the Democrats do not even have to re-register to vote in it. Why people who will be voting Democrat in November are allowed to participate in a Republican primary at all is beyond me.

Yes, that word does describe your "logic" very well, Little Bobbie. Put up or shut up. If you had proof of your ravings, you would offier it. You don't.

I would not call someone "smarter" than anyone if they are supporting do-noting seat warmers on the school board who allow themselves to be rubberstamps for a leftwing school superintendant instead of doing the jobs they were elected to in setting policy for our schools. The useless school board members we have now seem to regard Cheeseman as their boss instead of their employee, which he actually is.

In 2024, our country faces an election that is existential. If Biden or someone like him remains in power, we will not recognize the America we know and love in another four years. It will be gone forever. In that context, all conservatives and Republicans need to focus on preventing that from happening rather than rehashing what happened in the local party in an incident two years ago. That cannot be changed but the direction of our country still can be. We also have lots of other important races like getting decent governor for a change and getting a local school board with the backbone to stand up to woke policies.

That said, there is an easy way to put that dispute over what Hood Richardson did or did not resign from to bed for good, and that is for someone to produce his letter of resignation to see what it actually said.

When one holds two positions on one governing body, it is possible to resign both or to resign one and keep the other, and the specific wording of the resignation is what determines which has occured. I, myself had that situation. At the 1981 First Congressional District GOP convention, I was re-elected as a member at large of the NCGOP state executive committee for a two year term. A few months later, when Joe Beard resigned as Young Republican National Committeeman from NC to take a job in the Reagan administraion, he recommended me as his successor and I was elected by the state Young Republican Executive Committee. My new position also carried a voting seat on the NCGOP state executive committee, but I was not allowed to cast votes for both positions I now held. To give someone else from eastern North Carolina an opportunity to serve on the NCGOP state ExCom, I resigned my First District at-large seat, but retained my other seat by virtue of being YR National Committeeman.

The key is the wording of the letter of resignation. I have pointed that out to both sides since just after this dispute began, but so far I have not seen either side produce the actual letter. Please, somebody do that so we can put this issue to bed. There are so many more important things we need to be working on that have a whole lot more bearing on our future.
