Donna,
Thank you for so clearly identifying yourself as one of the people I am complaining about. You are new to Beaufort County and being a trusting soul, you believe what people tell you. To my knowledge, you have never contacted me about the allegations being made by other newbies, who also believe what they are being told. I fear you will forever be manipulated because you never bothered to check your informants' reputations, and you never have contacted me or other conservatives, as any reasonable person would do, to get the other side of the story. Would having to deal with conflicted information pose too much of an emotional problem for you? There are some good reasons those who know me and my history continue to elect me to public office. Why don't you ask them? |
I can't speak for Hood Richardson as a Republican politician, or even as a true Conservative, which he undoubtedly is.
I can, however, speak for myself as a Republican who helped build this local GOP into a nucleus that actually stood for something real, if only for a brief while, and as a true Conservative, whose record as such is unimpeachable, and who has governed as a real Conservative for 22 years, not in my words, but by my many deeds; deeds of an indelible record. In these true words, backed by those constant deeds, I will sum it up quickly what it means to be an accomplished Conservative, and a Reagan Republican; I would not begin to fathom a concept of growing the party to be "progressively" inclusive of all popular ideals as is the directive of the local GOP. Fundamentally it is this: If the Republican party is to survive in these crucial times, it will need to become far more focused of standing for what is consistent, what is real, and what is irreversibly true, what is uncommonly smart, and what is unconditionally wise. When the Republican party does not embrace these ideals of the best and truest amongst us, and does not have the wisdom to know the difference of who is real, and who is a proven imposter; the "party" provides succor to those politicians that are dishonest interlopers at best; thus the Republican brand, that so many of us paid so dearly to build and sustain, will fail, and then all that will remain will be the finger pointing, and the unreasoned words of those still stuck on that sinking ship, a lost group of likeminded losers without the intellectual where-with-all or the moral backbone to Right its diminishing, downward course. |

That is where the animosity between transplants and natives within the party comes from. It did not exist prior to that convention. The current Beaufort GOP first vice chairman, Paul Varcoe, was one of Buzzeo's lieutenants in that coup. Carolyn Garris is doing her best to reunify the party, but it will take time to heal all the wounds. Republicans on both sides need to back her in that effort.
Hood Richardson has been a target of the Buzzeo crowd, but while Richardson has worked to replace liberal GOP elected officials, I do not recall him ever trying to exclude people from participation in the party organization. That is a big different.
