Dear SDGOP Central Committee.. So are you going to un-ban me, or kick those guys off the island too?

Made note of something interesting today.  Recalling the “ban” by the Republican State Central Committee imposed on the State GOP from doing business with me or hiring me to help candidates as they have the last several elections, because some consider me a petulant blogger, etc, as a result of my pointing out stupid, or in their words making attacks on some Republican politicians..  this posting by the Butte County GOP today didn’t escape my attention:

So, what I do as a private citizen (not holding GOP position or office) and criticizing Republican officeholders is bad enough for them to declare a ban on me.  But as the Butte County Republican organization takes to social media and is attacking the House Majority Leader, the Senate Majority Leader, and two Senators, with several of them also serving on the State GOP Exec Board and/or the State GOP Central Committee.. is that now ok as it comes from inside the organization?

If that’s the case, does that mean they’re going admit they messed up and un-ban me? Or does it mean they have to be consistent, and hold a vote to ban the Butte County GOP as well?

What’s the saying? Ok for thee but not for me..

Just asking.

  1. They can be voted out in the next county central committee election, and should be for turning their county party into a joke. But, what do you expect when Tom Brunner is their Chair? Butte County GOP needs to get new leadership. That comes down to their county elected officials and precinct committee people doing the right thing.

  2. Taking position, commenting, and postings like this are NOT the purpose of a country Republican Party. Way out of line. Butte. Pennington. Meade. All way out of line. Their leadership knows better. Be better, you make all republicans look bad.

    1. Meade County? Hahahaha! Not to be included whatsoever with Butte, Pennington or Minnehaha.

  3. Seriously. Forget the policy side of it. At a minimum, they should be banned for a photoshop fail that makes the Kardashians look good.

  4. Butte county GOP did an incredible job representing there people. You say they didn’t fall
    In line with the GOP who cares they did what was right for the people they represent and stood tall against the governor and the swamp she has brought to this state.

    1. If they don’t want to support the SDGOP, then they should form a separate organization and do whatever they want to! But shouldn’t call themselves the GOP if they’re not willing to support the GOP!

    2. Freddie, the county parties don’t represent their people, they represent the state party at the local level (the state parties represent the national party.)
      Their job is to inform the voters within their counties of the party’s policies and platform, introduce the candidates, and get them elected. It is the candidates who are ultimately elected who represent the people.

  5. Since when did County Parties have the authority to take their own position on legislation or policy that was never passed by the State Central Committee? Looks like we have a bunch of county organization that do whatever they want regardless of where the state or national party officially stands. They should lose their right to vote at state convention.

    1. Absolutely! Any county GOPs working to undermine and/or destabilize the SDGOP should lose their SDGOP privileges.

      1. Speaking of Butte County and the new county organizations ‘popping up’… their lack of integrity is bringing down our party and they certainly do not represent their counties. When a couple of people or even one person from say Bennet County, can say ” hey kids, or hey sis, let’s just organize so we can vote at the Central Committee without ‘publicly’ announcing a meeting and put our names down as Chair, VIce Ch, Com. Man and Com. Woman”. They don’t meet with the required number of people or hold an actual election, (cheating) and then have the same representation of 4 votes just like Minnehaha or Pennington county ~ 4 votes at the Central Committee Meeting! These people are always pointing the finger elsewhere, but are the real corruption of the Republican party. Butte County Central Committee consists of Tom Brunner and wife and Travis Ismay & wife. Call Butte Co. Commissioners and ask about Travis Ismay. Yikes! . Crazy thing: they ONLY criticize and attack Republicans, not democrats. Butte County Republicans, Pennington and Minnehaha, Fall River, Yankton, etc. need to get busy to make sure your county is represented with good, honest precinct people who want what’s best! Then elect good leadership. Stop the takeover of your county! Deadline to sign up is March 26.

  6. That image may be the single worst photoshop job of all time. Did a 3 year old do it?
