Thanks to all who have responded. I have assembled more than 5 pages of information, which should be plenty for my meeting tonight, even if I just wave it at the group. I intend to publish it, however, and pass it out to those attending.
The occasion is that the membership chair of a local GOP group published a little card (more than 5000 distributed already and people asking for more) that is a schedule of upcoming Packer games. He has neatly inserted election dates (in red) in the football schedule. On the other side He has a motto — “Join the Party — Vigilant, Vocal, Victorius” and a picture of the GOP elephant. THe objection (from local known Communists) is the red and yellow banner across the top that says Obama (with the O being a rendition of the hammer and sicle) and the question: “Want to throw out this garbage?”
Of course some of the faint-hearted Republicans are re-thinking this wildly popular piece of campaign lit and are having a meeting tonight to discuss how “inappropriate” this business card is and to rake the Membership Chair over the coals. Actually to demand his resignation, which they cannot do because he was elected at caucus and only the caucus can replace him. I am no longer on the Executive Committee, but I am going to the meeting armed with the list of Obama’s Communist connections (partial list — just 5 pages).
Thank you all for your invaluable input. If anyone thinks of anybody else, not already mention, just chime in. I can re-print until 5 pm.
