Why did you state in Post #80: “Precinct Committee Chair, child, is an elected office; NOT (unlike that or precinct captain) an assigned one. “Oopsie,” huh...?”

It is the Precinct Committee Officer that is an elected office. You must be forgetting what you are writing.

Is is your terminology that made me suspect that you had no workings in the party and that you were a complainer rather than a doer.

If I got it wrong, I apoligize.

I say, get plugged into the Republican Party. They will give you the tools and access to put your enthusiasm to real use.

Also, you said: “ Not only did I faithfully cast my ballot for the Republican candidate for senator in ‘06, I also served as the party precinct captain for my district.”

To me, if you worked in this effort before, why not now? That is why I offered information from the Washington State PCO handbook to acquaint you with what is happening here. There are people in your precinct that you can turn into Republican voters. There are people who you can encourage to vote Republican.

If it takes my apology to get you to plug back into the Republican Party, here it is ; )

No, no... you're simply incapable of reading for comprehension,is all. (I won't hold that against you, of course; my wife being a teacher, I know full well just how unforgivably lax public school graduation standards have become, over the last few decades.) ;)

ME (post #81): "Precinct Committee Chair, child, is an elected office."

ME (post #85): "Precinct Committee Chair is an E-L-E-C-T-E-D position; this is readily discernible, even to one such as you, by the fact that it has (among other defining aspects) a proscribed Term of Office (2 years) -- the sort of thing, in other words, commonly associated with positions of authority to which one is rightfully E-L-E-C-T-E-D."

You, evidently, appear to be constitutionally incapable of reading these statements, word for word, for what they plainly and genuinely say... or even (weirdly; inexplicably) of clicking onto the links provided, and double-checking for yourself. If such is, indeed, the case... well: I'm afraid I'm simply neither trained or licensed to help you with that sort of problem, ultimately. Sorry 'bout that.

If I got it wrong, I apoligize.

You did, and -- regardless of your taking an unconscionably long time to acknowledge the readily available facts on the ground; three long and eminently pointless hours ago -- I will accept, without even resorting to anything so petty as pointing out that "apologize," properly, only has one letter "i" in it. ;)

To me, if you worked in this effort before, why not now?

As stated explicitly and repeatedly in numerous other threads, throughout this very forum: because I cannot, in good, principled conservative conscience, do anything whatsoever to aid and/or abet the elevation to the office of the U.S. Presidency Juan "Amnesty" McCain. Period. Full stop. End of sentence. End of paragraph.

I appreciate your offer, needless as it is -- already Been There and Done That, as I've already long since conclusively demonstrated -- but: I'm a conservative, first and foremost; NOT a Republican. Not anymore.

Just lots and lots of good friends still over there, is all. ;)
