Calls for Jewish Republicans to Boycott "Republican Jewish Coalition"

{Ron Paul's}...voice should be heard at any serious Republican Presidential candidates forum.

[George W. Bush]

Same topic got two threads pulled yesterday.

In any event, we’re talking about extremely small numbers of Jewish Republicans especially in the early primary states. Probably a few hundred votes total.

[SJackson]

Jim isn’t a Democrat, he’s a Libertarian Party member. Several big and small l libertarians ran as Democrats in the last election. Some of them won and are advocating conservative principles in the NH Statehouse...You don’t have a State flag flying on your webpage. I don’t really see why you care about something that is such a non-issue.

From the link, is this him?

If so, he appears to be a political progressive who is a registered Democrat. Progressive=hard left most places. That's worth knowing. And explains why he'd be attacking the RJC or anything Republican.

And you don't have to live in New Hampshire to be interested in someone taking a position on a Presidential candidate.

I'm curious, is he at least Jewish?

[NYC GOP Chick]

I, for one, wish he’d leave the GOP. He’s an embarrassment.

[SJackson]

Scrub they did. He's a Jewish Unitarian Universalist Transhumanist Quaker arrogating himself to speak on behalf of Jews. AM, just pinged you so you can see where this comes from. What a BS artist.

Jews4RonPaul paid for by a Jewish Unitarian Universalist Transhumanist Quaker, a registered Democrat, self defined progressive.

My Religious Views

http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:IhLR19AfvzEJ:www.jimcperry.com/religion.html+%22Jim+C.+Perry%22+%22new+hampshire%22+jewish&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=us

Religion: I consider myself a Jewish Unitarian Universalist Transhumanist Quaker. Yeah, it's a mouthful and understandably so.

Nature of Deity: I believe in God. I believe God is the Spirit of Love, Hope, Joy, Truth, Justice, Liberty and Peace. I believe each of us is in God and that God is in each of us. Every human carries within them a spark, a small piece of the Divine. I believe that all of humankind and all of creation is God.

Creation: The Big Bang Theory has it's merits, but thoughts lead me to believe that "as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end." We are the Creators of the human race. We are the Creators of the earth. Every living being is an equal co-Creator. Creation has always been and will always continue.

Afterlife: When we die, it is my belief that we continue to exist - as energy. I believe the energy, or Divine spark, whatever you want to call it, recycles itself. Perhaps the energy becomes part of a new-born, perhaps the energy leaves the earth to exist elsewhere. Maybe that spark is just what a new sapling needs to grow to be a mighty Oak. Yes, I believe in an afterlife - because I do not believe 'life', ever ends.

Sin: To me there is but one great sin, and that is to initiate force on another person, for any reason whatsoever. As all of the wise teachers from Moses to Jesus and Buddha to Ghandi have taught us, 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you.'

Worship: Taking part in the very act of creation, of living, is worship. To think, to exist, to learn, to grow, to teach. Anything and everything we do that life grants us the ability to do is an act of worship. To worship is "the object of adoring reverence or regard." How better to show reverence to God/Creation than to live life!

Life's Purpose: It is our purpose, I believe, to create a world where the inherent worth and dignity of every life is cherished, respected and affirmed; and to continue to create to that end.

Why is Ron Paul nuts ?

[NYC GOP Chick]

Unfair, or just realistic? I have more of a shot at getting the GOP nomination than any of the “candidates” who is being excluded.

Personally, I’d rather hear more in-depth and extended answers from people who might actually be the GOP nominee than a bunch of pandering soundbytes from a few legitimate contenders and a lot of never-gonna-bes.

[SJackson]

See post 22 and 24 as to the financier of this “organization”. This is democrat misdirection.

[NYC GOP Chick]

Yes, I read. Good work! :)

Btw, is this the alternate URL for Jews4RonPaul.org — http://www.nkusa.org?

[George W. Bush]

I'm not sure why this is surprising to anyone. One of the founders of this group was a friend of Ron Paul for years and was recently eulogized by him.

Jews are about 95% registered as Dims. But New Hampshire is a closed-primary state. So if they don't register Republican in the next few weeks, they won't be able to vote for any Republican in the primary.

Since one of your links shows that this Perry is planning to file for state legislator in 2008, that means he himself won't be eligible to vote for RP unless he runs as a Republican for which I see no indication. Well, on his personal site he does link twice to the NH GOP so it may be that he has switched parties to vote for RP and to run for legislature. It's simply not clear.

BTW, I think you missed the part where he seems to also run NH Pink Pistols, the gay CCW group. He also links to JPFO and appears to be a member there as well.

[tabsternager]

The only person whining is you.

If you had heard the label of “anti-Semite” given to Paul by Republicans or had even read the many posts on FR, you wouldn’t make such an ignorant statement.

[MEGoody]

Probably the same Jews who think the Palestinians got ripped off when Israel was given land.

[MEGoody]

So Ron Paul is an “anti-Semite” because he wants to pull out of Iraq and doesn’t want to bomb Iran?

Can you please point to the specific link and paragraph where Ron Paul was called an anti-Semite? I must have missed it.

[SJackson]

If you had heard the label of “anti-Semite” given to Paul by Republicans or had even read the many posts on FR, you wouldn’t make such an ignorant statement.

I've heard the label. Personally I don't think he's an antisemite, but I do think he's comfortable with support from that quarter.

You made the charge specifically regarding the RJC. They've said nothing of the kind.

[drpix]

Great site find! First Jews4RonPaul. Now Jews4Ahmadinejad. From your site:

[SJackson]

This guys a stitch. From a political blog. While I can't verify who Sandy P. aka Friday, LPNH Treasurer is, the treasurer of the LPNH is Sandy C. Pierre, so I think it's legit.

Dear Friends,

I wish to offer a serious warning about one of our own.  Part of being anti-government must include taking personal responsibility and policing our own communities. I have avoided using other people's names in this post, out of respect for those with whom I did not consult prior to posting this and who may not agree with my decision to do so.  But many of them are known to you.  I know this post is long, but I encourage you to read through to the end, to have a better understanding of the number of people who have already been hurt and over such a long period of time.  My goal is to prevent Jim from doing further harm in our community.

You are probably personally acquainted with Jim aka JP, and, like myself, have socialized with him at BBQs, conferences and PorcFest.  You may have found him to be pleasant and charming.  Unfortunately, I believe that he is completely untrustworthy.  I’m not just talking about flakiness, either.  I’m talking about repeated acts of irresponsibility, thoughtlessness, lies, and even theft and fraud.

A year ago, when I was running for the Executive Committee of the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire (LPNH), two different people pulled me aside and quietly encouraged me to run *against* Jim for the position of Secretary.  At that point, I knew Jim had a reputation for flakiness.  However, that was all I knew.  I was hesitant to run against someone I considered to be a friend, as well as a fellow Free Stater.  And I didn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. I chose to run for the position of Treasurer instead, as the current Treasurer had been serving for 5 years and had expressed an interest in stepping down.  I won the position of Treasurer, and Jim won the position of Secretary.  Perhaps if those who had warned me had been more explicit, some or all of the following events could have been avoided.  I am now wondering just how many of us have had bad experiences with this young man, and we’ve all been keeping it quiet, not realizing the extent of it.  Well, sunshine is the best disinfectant, so allow me to shine some light on some of my experiences with Jim over the past two years. While I have also heard rumors of other peoples’ negative experiences, I will leave it to them to share, or not, as they wish.

•   Last year I attended almost all of the LPNH’s monthly meetings.  Although Jim was serving on the ExComm at the time, and his presence was necessary to form a quorum, I never once saw him at a meeting.  More than once, I observed then-Chair John B. to say that he had just spoken with Jim, who had assured him that he would be at the meeting.  I inwardly observed that John, and his wife (who was also on the ExComm) had therefore made the 2 hours round-trip drive from Grafton to Concord and were unable to conduct any formal party business.  This hindered the ExComm in such ways as being unable to vote to give party funds to candidates running for office.

•   In April 2006, Jim told me that he had been “fired” as an outreach Liaison for the Free State Project.  He didn’t say why. This struck me as very odd, seeing as how the FSP was in great need of volunteers, and I was under the impression that Jim was one of the top recruiters of new members for the FSP.  I inquired about this via email to the Board of Directors of the FSP (on which I was serving at the time).  I never received an explanation as to why Jim had been fired; I was simply told that it was within the rights of the Liaison Coordinator to do so.  I was left to assume that the LC was some kind of meanie and that my friend Jim had been wronged.  I now wonder if information was being withheld in a misguided attempt to protect the guilty (although this is just speculation on my part).

•   In Dec 2006, while serving as First 1000 project manager for the FSP, one of my phone bank volunteers told me that he had spoken by phone with an FSP participant in Massachusetts recruited to the FSP by Jim.  This participant had no recollection of having joined the FSP.

•   On Feb. 15, 2007, Jim suggested to the LPNH ExComm via email that we have a gun raffle to raise funds.  We agreed that it sounded like a good idea.  Jim ordered raffle tickets from an MVP member who owns a print shop, and started selling them at the FSP’s Liberty Forum conference.  On Feb. 23, in the LPNH hospitality suite at NHLF, he told me, the Chair and a former ExComm member, in the presence of several other people, that he had already sold enough tickets to cover the cost of the guns being raffled off.  Per Jim’s original written budget, the cost of the guns was $825. 

•   In April 2007, the person who printed the raffle tickets contacted me and said that the LPNH had never paid her.  Apparently she had given an invoice to Jim, and he never passed it on.  After giving me a replacement invoice, she was paid (late).

•   Also in April 2007, the LPNH held a convention at St. Anselm’s in Manchester.  We provided a buffet lunch to attendees.  We never received an invoice for this lunch, which cost approximately $1000.  I asked Jim repeatedly for any info, as he was the one who had made the arrangements with St. Anselm’s.  He never provided me with an invoice, contact name or phone number.  Finally I dug up an email address on the internet and contacted St. A’s myself. They got back to me promptly and said they had mailed the invoice to Jim’s home address.  At my request, they sent a replacement invoice to the LPNH and were paid (late).

•   On May 2, 2007, Jim sent out an email to a number of LPNH members, at the Chair’s request, announcing an emergency meeting of the LPNH on May 4.  Despite the fact that I had a houseguest from the West Coast at the time, I made arrangements to be at the meeting location in Manchester at the announced time.  At least three other LPNH members drove in from other towns.  When we arrived, we were told by a member who lives in the building where our meetings take place that the meeting was cancelled.  Jim never showed up.  Apparently the Chair cancelled the meeting just hours before its start time, told Jim, and Jim made no effort to notify anyone else.  The Chair later apologized for this mishap; Jim never offered any explanations or apologies.

•   On June 9, 2007, a meeting was scheduled and publicly announced for the Hillsborough County LP, of which Jim is the Chair.  After my experience with the emergency meeting on May 4, I made a point of calling Jim two hours prior to the start time of the meeting, to confirm that it was taking place.  He assured me that it was taking place, that he would be there, and that nine people had RSVP’ed.  I drove to Manchester in pouring rain to find only one other LPNH member in attendance.  Jim never showed, never called me, and never offered me a word of explanation or apology.

•   In July 2007, having never received any money from Jim for raffle ticket sales, and in an email discussing various other points of LPNH business, I asked him to bring the money and the stubs to the upcoming LPNH meeting.  He never responded.  Three days later, he resigned his position as Secretary via email, with no advance notice.  He stated in his letter of resignation that he would hand over his ticket stubs and cash to another member of the ExComm. 

•   Since Jim’s resignation on July 5, he has been asked a minimum of 11 times, by at least five different LPNH members, via a combination of emails and phone calls, to hand over the raffle tickets (both sold and unsold) and the cash he collected.  We made numerous efforts to resolve the matter with him privately.  I internally proposed to the rest of the ExComm the possibility of making long-term repayment arrangements with him for the cash, if for whatever reason he didn't have it in his possession at the present time <cough>, if he would only give us the ticket stubs.  I personally offered to meet him at a time and place convenient for him to retrieve the ticket stubs.  I can’t speak for others, but for myself, I continually believed that this was all “youthful irresponsibility” on Jim’s part.  He ignored all email communications from both myself and the Chair.  He repeatedly made telephone statements to various individuals of “I will give the stubs and cash to so and so in a day or two”, but it never happened. 

•   On September 9, out of a desire to avoid defrauding dozens of people who had bought LPNH raffle tickets from Jim but stood no chance of winning a prize, the LPNH ExComm passed a motion to go public with the fact that Jim had never handed over any of his ticket stubs, and to offer replacement tickets or refunds to the purchasers.  We gave Jim a deadline of two weeks to hand over the ticket stubs, and additional time to hand over the cash. The party Chair informed him of this privately.  Jim did not respond.

•   On 9/25/07, after the two week deadline had passed and as I was preparing to send out the public notices about the raffle, another LPNH member chose to make a last-ditch effort to resolve the matter with Jim privately.  He called Jim at 9:00PM on a weeknight and made arrangements to drive to his home in Amherst to retrieve the ticket stubs and cash.  After he made the drive, Jim failed to hand over any cash, although he did hand over some ticket stubs.  Furthermore, Jim said “Too bad you didn’t get here sooner, or I could have gone to the bank.”  Once again, Jim had been called at 9:00PM, and had said before this person drove to Amherst that Jim had the cash to give him.

I and the rest of the LPNH ExComm received an email the same night from someone who was told by Jim that he gave the tickets and the cash to the person who drove to Jim’s home in Amherst.  Since this directly conflicted with what I had been told by the person who drove to Jim’s house, I asked the email writer for verification.  When I questioned this person, they revealed that they, personally, and others that they know, have also had experiences with Jim “withholding owed funds” (direct quote).  If forced to choose between Jim’s word and the other LPNH member, they would go with the other person.

The LPNH will honor our obligations to our friends and supporters who bought raffle tickets.  We have purchased a raffle permit, will buy the guns from Riley’s as Jim arranged, and will award them to two ticket buyers.  But the only one who raised any funds via this venture was Jim C. Perry.

While I don’t intend to press legal charges, I do want to let as many people know about this as possible, so that they can see what kind of man he really is, and keep that in mind when considering whether to do business with him or entrust him with a position of responsibility within their organization.  I received a bulk email from him within the last two months indicating that he has opened some sort of online business; I assume that means he takes payment in advance for goods sold online.  I have also heard that he has formed some sort of organization to support Ron Paul’s Presidential campaign.  I don't know whether or not he is soliciting funds in the name of this organization.  It is my hope that no more of my friends and comrades waste their time or lose their money to Jim. 

In Liberty,
Sandy P. aka Friday
LPNH Treasurer

"Why is Ron Paul nuts?"

My posting neither asks that question nor seeks to answer that question. The questions I ask is:

Why has the "Ron Paul Revolution" attracted so many freaks, frauds and phonies? and Why do some good conservatives not see or ignore this?

[SJackson]

See 35, this guy get’s better and better.

[John D]

This has about as much credibility as the post a couple of week ago that proclaimed the military supported cut and run more than any other candidate.

[drpix]

"Jim isn’t a Democrat, he’s a Libertarian Party member. Several big and small l libertarians ran as Democrats in the last election. Some of them won and are advocating conservative principles in the NH Statehouse.

"You don’t have a State flag flying on your webpage. I don’t really see why you care about something that is such a non-issue."

He runs as Democrat, he describes himself as a "Classical Liberal", a "progressive"and a "democrat" but insinuates himself into the Republican primary process. And you only want to know why my FR-homepage doesn't have a state flag and why I care about more "Ron Paul Revolution" slimy tactics.

[SJackson]

BTW, since you seem wired into things NH and Libertarian, read post 35. Is this true?
