YOU WON’T BELIEVE THIS! CRUZ SUPPORTERS ATTEMPT COUP AT EAGLE FORUM!
Conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly has been a national leader of the conservative movement since the publication of her best-selling 1964 book, A Choice Not An Echo. She has been a leader of the pro-family movement since 1972 when she led the fight to defeat the Equal Rights Amendment.
Phyllis Schlafly is 91 years-old.
On March 11, 2016 conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly endorsed Donald Trump for President at his St. Louis rally.
But not everyone in her organization, Eagle Forum – or her family – agreed with Phyllis Schlafly’s decision.
Last week Phyllis Schlafly released several board members for disloyalty to the organization. The group was planning to hold rogue board meeting to take over the Eagle Forum.
Today the rogue Cruz supporters attempted a coup.
They held a non-sanctioned meeting and blocked Phyllis Schlafly from their conference call.
This email was sent out Monday afternoon.
St. Louis, Missouri:
“At 2pm today, 6 directors of Eagle Forum met in an improper, unprecedented telephone meeting. I objected to the meeting and at 2:11pm, I was muted from the call. The meeting was invalid under the Bylaws but the attendees purported to pass several motions to wrest control of the organization from me. They are attempting to seize access to our bank accounts, to terminate employees, and to install members of their own Gang of 6 to control the bank accounts and all of Eagle Forum.
“The members of their group are: Eunie Smith of Alabama, Anne Cori of Missouri, Cathie Adams of Texas, Rosina Kovar of Colorado, Shirley Curry of Tennessee, and Carolyn McLarty of Oklahoma.
“This kind of conduct will not stand and I will fight for Eagle Forum and I ask all men and women of good will to join me in this fight.”
This is a developing story—-
ok...I’ll try again with smaller words. I wasn’t commenting on the Eagle forum. I was commenting on the other posters comment that “we” want Cruz to get out.
Clearer?
Don’t lose this post!!
You should see them on Twitter.
If you want to beat the left, you have to show you can play like the left.
That’s something NONE of the GOPe has ever done.
You don’t bring knives to a gun fight.
CRUZ 2016!
Thanks for clearing that up. I’m glad someone was able to lay it out correctly and politely.
The original comment was a little off-putting, because of course the answer is “YES! People around here still DO read carefully and assess & correctly understand the facts.”
!!!!
No, the Canadian sleazepreacher is finished.
They'll have videos of nastyTed pushing Grandma Phyllis in her wheelchair off a cliff.
And all the little anklebiting nastycruzers will be cheering him on...
you have a nice little day now, ya’ hear?
Thanks.
Well you may be, but people need to understand that they put their own salvation on the line when they use God in such an evil way.
A prayer is the most sacred thing we have ever been given by God. He promises to hear each and everyone of them. It is our only way to His ear.
However, to take it and turn it into a form of a loan that needs to be repaid or it will be taken back and used as a way to Lord it over the one you prayed for is one of the most evil things any human could do.
You can ignore it, and you are blessed for it. However, God will not, and it needs to be addressed if the individual ever expects me or others to the thankful for their prayers.
Prayers are between God and the one giving them for the one given to. To use God in such a way to make the receiver feel guilty is just evil.
Eagle Forum is a non-profit, correct?
Don’t tax law rules require them to be an issues based advocate only and not endorse specific candidates? You and I probably realize that it was Phyllis herself that was endorsing Trump and not the Eagle Forum, but these days you can’t be too careful when dealing with the IRS.
voted to reauthorize the Patriot Act.
...while forcing through an amendment that stopped the unfettered NSA bulk data collection that had been going on.....
voted for the TPP enabling TPA.
While I do disagree with Cruz here, it is over a matter of practice not principal. If we are going to negotiate trade deals with other countries we need to have one party negotiating it on our side. It is just a terrible negotiating tactic to have 435 voices all negotiating a deal at the same time. It won't work. In principal, the President SHOULD have Trade Promotion Authority and the congress should be able to approve or deny the deal. In practice, this President should not be given that authority. He has proven he can't be trusted. The person who HAS enabled TPP through a failing in principal however, is Donald J. Trump. He has been donating to and helping get elected the most virulent anti-freemarket, anti-U.S., anti-prosperity Senators and House members in the country. It is Trump's donations that have put in place the people who have negotiated and will vote YES on the evil TPP itself. Not just TPA.
and yet cruz is with the establishment and you protect the establishment. Irony
Yeah, Cruz is "with" the GOPe in the same way that Reagan was "with" them in 1980. If your definition of "with" is dragging them, kicking and screaming to the right.
If true, I haven't seen it. Care to provide some proof?

The hell is this argument? We're not talking about talking tough or being willing to sling attacks at people. We're talking about outright theft and fraud being perpetuated against other conservatives.
Ahhh..the old, "It's not the accuracy of the claim that is important but the seriousness of the charge." You leftists always trot this technique out. It never works. Just ask Dan Rather.

If this thread is any indication, while these laudable actions do happen, they happen less than 20% of the time. The clown car comment was one of the most insightful ones on this thread.
can you elaborate?
