Republican Party Treachery

[Donald R Healy]

Hi Folks, just got through e-mailing Mr. Hartley of the Duval County Republican party, informing him that I would no longer be contributing to the party, meagre though it may be, because of the abandonment of principle over politics, and the scurrilous fashion that Sen. Cruz et.al, were treated by the Rove's and McConnels.  This will, in and of itself, work no hardship on the RINO's, they'll keep on "Rednecking" us and denigrating us, but it will, again in a small fashion, help the Tea Party faithful to carry on the battle for the founding principles of this great Nation.  Semper Fi, to all of you here, and God Bless the USA.

Thank you Patricia and Hank for your comments, and I hope that my comments were not taken to disparage Mr. Hartley in any way.  My difficulty with his response to me was that he seemed to be making me the problem and not the RINO's!!  Until I can straighten out all of this I'm going to adhere to my current stance and work through our Tea Party, but I sure do appreciate your thought's.  God Bless to all.

Hank is right.  Rick Hartley is a conservative republican and holds to tea party and for that matter, real republican principles.  He will be underfunded, if you can imagine, because he is a conservative who actually supports republican principles and will see a cut in funding because he is a true republican.  There in lies the problem with the rinos and their war chests that allow them to buy their way back into office when they should have been gone years ago.  Mr. Hartley will need all the donations he can get and should not be penalized for actually adhering to republican principles and expecting our elected officials to do the same.

Chairman Hartley is one of the good guys here. He is actually a conservative Republican and a friend trying to turn around the Party here in Duval County. He has a very difficult job moving the GOP back to principled constitutional Republicanism. We actually have principled constitutional conservative elected officers for the 1st time in memory. I agree with being careful with your donations but the DCREC is legit at this time. I would not give a dime to the RNC or the Senate or House re-lection committees. The establishment Republicans in Duval do not like Rick Hartley because he is a principled constitutional conservative and they are fighting him every inch of the way. He is also getting lip service from the prior Chairmen.
