June 23, 2024

Illinois Republicans anxiously await the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) to issue a press release that gives:


a) the names of the two other members of the IRP chairman search committee,
b) the selection process that the committee will use,
c) the qualifications that applicants must have,
d) the requirements that applicants must meet, and
e) the application filing deadline.

Illinois Republicans anxiously await the IRP to then issue press releases that give:


a) the names of all the applicants who met the filing deadline,
b) the names of all those applicants the committee deemed qualified,
c) lots of information on those applicants,
d) how Illinois Republicans can provide input on those applicants to IRP State Central Committee (SCC) members,
e) the date, time, and location of the meeting in which the applicants will give their presentations to the IRP SCC,
f) how Illinois Republicans can attend that meeting,
g) the Zoom link that Illinois Republicans can use to watch the applicant’s presentations at that meeting,
h) the weighted vote that each IRP SCC member has,
i) the weighted vote that each applicant got and from each of the IRP SCC members, and
j) the name of the winning applicant.



I am very interested in learning what each the applicants has done and has promised to do to defend and advance the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. I am very interested in learning what position each of the applicants has on direct election of IRP SCC members. It seems to me that the committee will reject applicants who want direct election.



In 2005, as an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member, I organized an applicant forum in Springfield the evening before the day that the IRP SCC elected Andy McKenna as IRP’s chairman. The participants in that forum were John Cox, Stephen McGlynn, McKenna, and Jim Nalepa. Jim Oberweis wanted to participate, but could not.



In 2013, I attended the IRP SCC meeting in Springfield at which IRP chairman applicants gave five minute presentations on why they should be the next IRP chairman. Jack Dorgan was selected. The other applicants were Angel Garcia, Jim Nalepa, Mark Shaw, Don Tracy, Joe Walsh, and Lori Yokoyama.



Richard Williamson was the IRP chairman 1999–2001, Lee Daniels 2001–2002, Dallas Ingemunson 2002 (interim), Gary MacDougal, 2002–2002, Judy Baar Topinka 2002–2005, Andrew McKenna 2005–2009, Pat Brady 2009–2013, Jack Dorgan 2013–2014, Tim Schneider 2014–2021; Mark Shaw, Co-Chairman 2018–2024, and Don Tracy 2021–present.



Why is the Illinois Democrat Party (IDP) as successful as the IRP is unsuccessful, that is, what distinguishes IDP leaders from IRP leaders? ANSWER: IDP leaders believe in and defend/advance all the planks in the Democrat Party platform while IRP leaders reject or fail/refuse to defend/advance many planks, if not most planks, if not virtually all the planks in the Republican Party platform. Far too many of them paint themselves as being Democrat Lite and are Democrat Lite. The aforesaid is a direct result of IDP SCC members being directly elected by Democrats while IRP SCC members are not directly elected by Republicans. I should write a book about IRP leaders since 2000 and the planks in the Republican Party platform that they have rejected or failed/refused to defend/advance.

DAILY HERALD
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Democrats and RINOs blame following planks in the Republican Party platform for Republican loses: personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race of gender based preference giving). But Republican failure/refusal to defend and advance the aforesaid planks is the real reason for the loses:

My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used that against me. They have always hinted/implied/agued/shouted that proved that my parents were filthy rich. But my father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He did not buy a new car until he was 45 in 1967 and it was a bottom of the line 6-cylinder 2-door Chevrolet. My mother never attended high school. She stayed home and raised my brother and I.)
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/06/23/upshot/male-kindergarten-teachers.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Boys are falling behind in school. They are less likely than girls to be ready for kindergarten. They read at lower levels. They graduate from high school at lower rates. This gender gap in education has significantly widened just in the last generation. One group is uniquely positioned to help put boys on the right track in their first year of formal schooling: men who teach kindergarten. Yet only around 3 percent of kindergarten teachers are men. Many studies show that older boys benefit from having male teachers. There hasn’t been as much research on the youngest students and their teachers — in large part because there are so few male teachers in early education to begin with. Still, it stands to reason that men who teach kindergarten can make a difference for boys, said Thomas S. Dee, a Stanford professor who has for decades researched the effect of teacher demographics on students.)

QUAD CITY TIMES
— Democrats ever-increasingly demand that employers pay a “living wage.” A “living wage” is far more than a minimum wage. Minimum wage jobs are for those who have little or no job skills or work experience – typically teenagers. Why should employers be expected/forced to pay a “living age” to anyone who has little or no job skills or work experience? Back in the “good old days,” I earned the minimum wage ($12.05/hour in today’s dollars) while I washed dishes in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights and lived with my parents in Crete and attended Crete-Monee High School. With the money that I earned, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966 that I used to get to/from my parents’ home and a) jobs cleaning golf shoes in Flossmoor and chipping slag and pumping gasoline in Chicago Heights during the summer of 1966, b) my job delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1967, and c) classes at UIC 1966-1967. I sold it in December of 1967 and bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442.

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Concerns of pre-slating sexism – SHIA KAPOS (COMMENT: Why don’t Republican county party organizations in Illinois have slating meetings like the Democrats have? Who will the Republican candidates be for Auditor, Clerk of the Court, and Recorder of Deeds in DuPage County? Who will the Republican candidates be for DuPage County Board seats and for DuPage County Forest Preserve seats?)
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/06/16/concerns-of-pre-slating-sexism-00102383
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Alarm bells were raised at the pre-slating meeting Thursday for the Cook County Democratic Party, where wanna-be candidates for 2024 made a pitch for endorsements. This is a get-to-know-you meeting before official slating in August. Judicial candidates starred in Thursday’s pre-slating. Today, candidates for county offices and the water board will make their case. More on that below. Serious concerns: During Thursday’s presentation, Maggie O’Keefe, the committeewoman for the 40th Ward, called out the Illinois State Bar Association for not recommending more women of color. O’Keefe had expressed similar concerns ahead of the 2022 primary.)

Were it not for the Second Amendment, a) England would have invaded America in 1812, b) Mexico would have invaded America in 1846, c) Germany would have invaded America in 1917, d) Japan, Italy, and Germany would have invaded America in 1941, e) the Soviet Union would have invaded America in 1947, and f) Russia and China would have invaded America by now. Because Mexico and its allies work hand-in-hand with treasonous Democrats and treasonous RINOs and have not yet officially declared war on America, their invasion of America is ever-increasingly successful.

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— COMMENT: Democrats say “From repealing the weapons ban to no smoking here are five new bills lawmakers introduced.” Ever-increasingly, Illinois Democrats dominate Illinois and call those in Illinois who they cannot dominate “failed.”
https://www.sj-r.com/story/news/politics/state/2023/02/05/here-are-five-new-bills-proposed-in-the-illinois-general-assembly/69859918007/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Weapons ban: House Bill 1564 Legal challenges to Illinois’ ban on the sale and purchase of assault-style weapons have mounted in recent weeks at the state and federal levels. The efforts have been led by Republicans, including three lawsuits from failed Attorney General candidate Thomas DeVore. Earlier this week, a split appellate court upheld a decision by an Effingham County judge to issue a temporary restraining order in favor of DeVore and the 886 plaintiffs he was representing. Through House Bill 1564, Republicans seek to repeal several provisions of the Protect Illinois Communities Act — signed into law as Public Act 102-1116 by Pritzker during the lame-duck session. Specifically, the bill from state Rep. Dave Severin, R-Benton, would remove the act’s language that prevents an individual’s ability to “knowingly possess an assault weapon, assault weapon attachment, .50 caliber rifle, or .50 caliber cartridge,” as of Jan. 1, 2024. It would also return the firearm restraining order to six months instead of the current one-year order created by PICA. Severin is joined by nine other GOP co-sponsors in opposition to the ban passed under House Bill 5471. “The people that I represent, and indeed the people of our entire region believe the firearms ban that Governor Pritzker signed is a direct attack on Second Amendment rights, and I agree,” Severin said in a statement. “I am a pro-2nd Amendment legislator and always have been. I filed this bill because I believe firmly that the firearms ban is unconstitutional and it should be repealed immediately.”

(COMMENT: Expect that ever-increasingly, “old guard Republicans” will not only denounce Trump, they will denounce conservatives, that is, they will denounce platform Republicans, that is, they will denounce Republicans, that is, they will denounce the Republican Party. I should write a book about hate-filled Trump-hating past and present leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization who have denounced me. I should write a book about hate-filled Trump-hating past and present Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce who have denounced me. I should write a book about hate-filled Trump-hating past and present candidates on ballots in my precinct, their campaign managers, their major donors, their fundraisers, their pollsters, their campaign managers, their campaign staff members, and their campaign volunteers who have denounced me.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Author and historian Thomas Sowell, who has written frequently on slavery, has pointed out that the United States was actually the first country in world history to ban the practice. “Slavery was just not an issue, not even among intellectuals, much less among political leaders, until the 18th century – and then it was an issue only in Western civilization,” Sowell wrote. “Among those who turned against slavery in the 18th century were George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry and other American leaders,” Sowell said. “You could research all of the 18th century Africa or Asia or the Middle East without finding any comparable rejection of slavery there. But who is singled out for scathing criticism today? American leaders of the 18th century.”)

I would focus on those who destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to cover up their wrongdoing, and/or who refuse to give them money. I would focus on those who blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems.

Crete was predominately German American and Lutheran when I lived there 1948-1972. My brother continues to live in a house in downtown Crete that I lived in 1954-1972 that my grandfather on my father’s side had built in 1926 on land that his grandfather bought in 1864 after he sold a farm that he had homesteaded in southeast Crete in 1854. My outstanding parents sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod.)
