I worked with many Blacks while I worked for the Post Office, IRS, and GAO. I supervised Blacks while I worked for GAO.)

(COMMENT: According to my critics/opponents, all government and political news and commentary is misinformation, except for the government and political news and commentary that they put out or bless.

(COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. I should write a book about those reject the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform.

In my defense, overwhelmingly because I spend 10+ hours each and every day putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out, I dive the aforesaid vehicles very little.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Do you agree or disagree with my critics/opponents and why? – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

According to my critics/opponents, me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters have caused all the losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000.

Because they cannot manipulate or dominate me, they do everything that they can a) to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading those newsletters.

My critics/opponents demand blind loyalty. They destroy a) those who they cannot manipulate or dominate, b) those who refuse to glorify and praise them, c) those who refuse to pander to them, d) those who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) those who refuse to cover up their wrongdoing, and/or f) those who refuse to give them money.

My critic/opponents have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and/or Illinois. I have sued some of my critics/opponents.

Many of them despise, if not hate, one or more of my demographics: conservative, platform Republican, White, male, old (born in 1948), heterosexual, draft avoider, married, childless, non-poor, gun owner, baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, I am not a member of a church, I do not attend church services, I do not give money to a church, 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, Crete resident 1948-1972, Wheaton resident since 1978, federal employee for almost 30 years, federal retiree for more than 24 years, etc.

So far, they have succeeded in a) stopping me from raising money from Republicans so that Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks, b) gerrymandering my precinct, c) ending my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship, d) ending my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership, e) ending my Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster service, f) ending my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership, g) almost getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters, h) ending my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer, and i) ending my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership.

They hint/imply/argue/shout at Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers that me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters have caused all the losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000.

Do you agree or disagree with my critics/opponents and why? Please phone me at 630-653-0462 to discuss.
