GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— The Republican Party exists to promote conservative principles; the Democrat
Party exists to promote liberal principles; the Libertarian Party exists to
promote libertarian principles; and the Green Party exists to promote green principles.
Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and
advance their platform. The Illinois Republican Party (IRP) platform (https://illinois.gop/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/2016PlatformoftheIllinoisRepublicanParty.pdf)
is conservative. The Republican Party platform (https://gop.com/platform/)
is conservative. I served on the 2008 IRP State Convention Platform and
Resolutions Committee. Disgustingly, outrageously, and unacceptably, the
Republican Party, IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton
Township Republican Central Committee let people hold leadership positions a)
who reject many planks in the aforesaid platforms and b) focus on destroying
those like me who support the aforesaid platforms. Most commonly, these
Democrat Party plants, Libertarian Party plants, Green Party plants, and RINOs
reject the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment,
illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference
giving) planks. From what I see, they are working very hard to fill the 2020
IRP State Convention Platform and Resolution Committee with members who will
water down if not strike the aforesaid planks. I have asked my representative
on the IRP State Central Committee to appoint me to the 2020 IRP State
Convention Platform and Resolution Committee. – Dave Diersen

I see, overwhelmingly, those who earn degrees in journalism, those who work for
television stations, and those who work for newspapers do so to promote the
Democrat, Libertarian, and/or Green party platforms. Overwhelmingly, they
promote LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, Islam, abolition of
the Second Amendment, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage,
political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age
discrimination, and retaliation. Overwhelmingly, they are anti-Trump,
anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican,
anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people,
anti-gun owners, anti-German Americans, anti-draft avoiders, and/or anti-those
whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

— Ignorance, Fear, and LGBTQ – Lloyd Marcus
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/05/ignorance_fear_and_lgbtq.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mary
and I met with several black relatives for dinner at a restaurant in Baltimore.
The jovial conversation drifted to politics. I was stunned that they know
nothing about several important political issues. Because they only watch
mainstream media, my relatives are either misinformed or uninformed. For
example,, my relatives have never heard of Sharia Law. When I explained the
tyranny of Sharia and how leftists are promoting it in America, my relatives
were shocked. Overwhelmed, a relative said, “I’ve heard enough. Can we change
the subject?” The second thing that disturbed me was my relatives’ intense fear
of pushing back against LGBTQ indoctrination that is impacting their lives. As
I said, these are not political people. And yet, they know they had better not
get caught opposing LGBTQ activists forcefully infiltrating every aspect of our
lives; from public education to entertainment to Sunday morning worship.)

— A cautionary tale: Unfettered illegal immigration creates a failing nation –
Paul H. Yarbrough
https://www.commdiginews.com/politics-2/a-cautionary-tale-unfettered-illegal-immigration-creates-a-failing-nation-117991/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “We
are a nation of immigrants” is a favorite aphorism of vote-seeking politicians.
The saying reaches back to the 1870s. However, it is not true. So who cares?
The pretense that we are all immigrants is babble. Words thrown about by the
politicians to curry favor with some minority du jour. It is more “give me your
vote,” and I will pay you with social safety nets.” Most politicians aren’t
interested in the nonsensical twaddle about “give me your tired and your poor”
as reflected on the Statue of Liberty. Maybe an update to the original should
be “Welcome to New York, home of AOC and DeBlasio. If you think it was bad
where you were, with until you start paying for NY Liberal policies.” This
meaning that the taxpayer will provide the dollars necessary to provide
immigrants – legal and illegal – with food, housing, medical care – those
things bought and paid for by American taxes. Taxes squeezed from the citizens
who may or may not want an influx of “the tired, huddled masses” seeking
economic opportunity in the US.)

attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high

diabetes from age 14 and worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in
Chicago Heights. He almost always worked second jobs to help pay the family’s
bills. He did not buy a new car until he was 45 years old and it was a bottom
of the line 2-door Chevy with almost no options. He died suddenly of heart
failure in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21.)

clear what you should be focusing on.)
