But, but, Cruz is the savior of this nation! His father has told him so! Can't you see? He HAS to win! At any cost! Ethics and morality? There's no time for that!
still false dilemma and undermines your reasoning
that when people disagree on a political endorsement they have the right to strong arm out the 91 yr old organization founder and leader
No Joy
Unholy crap! It’s just an endorsement! It’s not like she went Bunny Mellon and sent Trump the Eagle forum checkbook!
Mountain out of a molehill?? Okay, anything to rationalize what’s happening. This poor lady although 91 seems to have control of her wits, her health and her group that she formed. This is a stab in the back to her by some very unscrupulous people all for the sake of Ted Cruz. And not to feel a modicum of anger is making a mountain out of a molehill?
The nomination is more important than winning the actual election.
The bridges have been so burned that the idea they will get 66% of Trump supporters to vote for Cruz or another GOPe putz is pure delusion.
Cruz will never get any crossovers, so he has no chance to win.
The divorce is in process and the finalization is pending.
Ann Cori is Phyllis’ own daughter! Which makes this situation very tragic and sad given her long, long history as a conservative force and one of Ronald Reagan’s close friends.
Oh, I forgot about that. Glenn Beck, who now by the way has informed us that he is on George Soros’ hit list, has made an insightful observation. Did you hear Ted Cruz will lead us all through the rapture?
The species known as a "rabid RomneyBot" only exists in the minds of delusional people.
I’m heavily involved in a non-profit in Canada, where the rules may be different.
The article states that Schlafly herself removed several members from the board the previous week. At least in Canada, this isn’t how board members are removed. While I’ve not read all of the posts, I’ve read a substantial number, and am struck that no one has picked up on this point. If Schlafly undertook a purge on her own initiative that was rogue, pushback might be expected. In your experience, can a founder dismiss members of the board on his own initiative?
Up here there are provisions for what must be done to convene without the president convening, and convening without the president. I can’t imagine not having such provisions since the incapacitation of the president (death or a coma) would decapitate the organization.
E-mail and teleconferencing has certainly changed things in Canada, and I imagine may be changing things down there, about what is necessary for notice of motion and what constitutes “place.”
Ah, didn’t hear about that one. Ah, Beck. It’s so comforting to know that Cruz surrounds himself with such...stable...individuals.
Are you sure about that?
they just go off their establishment talking points, it is all they know
And Free Republic will die, as the vast majority of Trumpeteers will not contribute sufficiently to keep the lights on.
Does anyone seriously think that all those Trumpsters that have signed on since August will remain loyal to FR?
Such a theology makes true Christians have red faces of shame.
I’m about ready to go third party with Trump. We can call it the AMERICA FIRST PARTY. Watch it take off. Screw the GOP. Let’s take them down. They don’t care about us.
Yes, if Cruz wins, the party and the movement will be purged. Those who have Trumpian/Nationalistic views on immigration and free trade, or ever even once said something positive about Trump, will have their careers destroyed.
To be precise, the article quotes the release stating that the meeting was invalid under the bylaws. The release did not cite the relevant bylaws, so it does not actually give knowledge.
The article also states that Schlafly on her own initiative had removed members from the Board. Is this valid according to the Bylaws?
Are you sure about that?
What post?
No worries; Rush Limbaugh will be coming to Cruz’s defense in about 2 1/2 hours!
Sadly, Cruz has NO CHANCE to win.
There is a whole OP that JimRob started where he spells it out.
I’ve already had to dig it up once. If you are interested, just do a search for it.
