The Future

 After the victories the Republicans experienced from the local to the federal level, it would be easy to take their foot off the accelerator and enjoy the success. But we need to do just the opposite. There is more work to do and now is the time to do that work. The party must do everything possible to stay on top and gain even more ground for future elections. Our local base needs to know how important they are for the future of our party. The party also needs to know who our voters are and cultivate them through a partnership. Moving forward with open and accepting arms for Republican voters is vital, not to mention convincing Democrat and Independent voters that we are the way to go for the future. A look through history reveals that the political pendulum always swings the other way after a time. As a Republican, I don't want to be caught short when that swing takes place. Let's work hard with strong leadership and secure as many voters for upcoming elections as we can through our unified efforts. Activities and communication, as well as educating voters on what a conservative Republican is, are the first steps in maintaining and growing our influence.

Yours in Conservative Leadership, Dale

Bad Leadership: One Bad Decision Leads to More Bad Decisions.

            We are all familiar with the Nate Lamar situation over the last month.  To recap, Nate Lamar was brought in as Chief of Police by Anita Werling at Kamron Yates' request to lead his department. Lamar was allowed to work three or four days in his position prior to resigning.  The mayor did nothing.  Lamar should have been fired five minutes after this became public.  After all, he lied in court. The chief works at the pleasure of the mayor.  That person can be hired and fired by the sitting mayor, in other words.  Don't let anyone tell you any different.  If a mayor tells you that they cannot fire or hire a chief of police they are either massively incompetent and don't know their job or they are a flat out liar.  Either one shows a lack of integrity.        After Yates appointed Lamar to continue as the chief of police some openings occurred in the department with officers leaving f...

Brady-Giglio, What You Need to Know.

      With recent events happening in our city and around the area a new term to most of us has been Brady-Giglio.  What is it and why is it important?        Both terms stem from court cases.  Brady v. Maryland  and Giglio v. United States.         In the Brady case the Supreme Court ruled that any information or evidence that the prosecuting attorney knows when he is dealing with a case MUST be turned over to the defense attorney(s).  It zeroed in, but does not limit that information to, exculpating the accused or possibly reducing a penalty.  (Remember the movie, My Cousin Vinny?)       Giglio, on the other had, deals with the credibility of a witness, namely a law enforcement officer.  The list includes law enforcement officers who have credibility problems.  They might include misuse of force, criminal convictions, dishonesty, or mishandling of evidence, etc.  Off...
