GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— What discourages you from helping elect candidates? For me, it is far too many of them on ballots in my precinct since 2000 have blamed their defeats on me and on my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. I should write a book about them. I would focus on those who I have done the most to help elect. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on those who reject the most planks in the Republican Party platform. I would focus on those who reject direct election of Illinois Republican Party State Central Committee members. 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 wrong doing, and/or who refuse to give them money. – Dave Diersen

— Here’s a look at questions about Tim Walz’s military record. – MEG KINNARD (COMMENT: Since I was 18 years old in 1966, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used my avoiding the Vietnam War draft against me. They would stress that Vance has accomplished way more than I have even though his miliary service set him back 4 years. In my defense, I stress that my Democrat Post Office (1966-1969), Firestone Stores (1970-1972), IRS (1971-1980), and GAO (1980-1997) superiors used my avoiding the Vietnam War draft against me very big time.)
https://apnews.com/article/walz-national-guard-military-ae43d684bf1319e535f9f620552155d7
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Vance enlisted in the Marine Corps after graduating high school, serving four years as a combat correspondent, a type of military journalist, and deploying to Iraq in that capacity in 2005. Neither Trump nor Harris has served in the U.S. military. Trump received a series of deferments during Vietnam, including one attained with a physician’s letter stating that he suffered from bone spurs in his feet. The Harris campaign statement said Walz “would never insult or undermine any American’s service to this country” and “thanks Senator Vance for putting his life on the line for our country. It’s the American way.”)

Of course, the aforesaid stress and paint negatively that I am conservative, Republican, White, male, older (born in 1948), non-veteran, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, I have lived in DuPage County only since 1978, etc. What RINOs do is political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination.
