From my fellow blogger at Conservative Heritage Times:
The resolution I sponsored before the Pepin County Board called for non-partisan designation of county offices and the state legislature passed by a 6-4 vote at our monthly meeting Wednesday. I talked about the resolution at CHT on this post.
What I’m standing against is the socialistic tendencies which are becoming evident in party organizations more and more so over two decades, tendencies which run counter to our country’s founding and our Founding Fathers as well. People who think outside the “party line” should not be punished. Now other counties across Wisconsin may take up this resolution and discuss it and it will be brought forth before the annual Wisconsin County Association convention next fall.
If nothing else, we’ll at least get the discussion started and perhaps find a sympathetic ear or two across the state.
Happy New Year to you all, may God bless us in the days to come.
Editor’s Note: We have previously discussed Sean’s ideas on non-partisanship here and here.
February 12th, 2011 National Conference in New York City.
Jackie Salit, President of IndependentVoting.Org [Lake: and of CUIP], is hosting the conference of independents.
We’ll have hundreds of folks from across the country there. The media will be there. The politicos will be watching.
We’ll continue the important conversation about where we’ve come from, what we’ve accomplished, and where we’re going.
I want you there both to project our strength and to be part of the conversation.
