There is only one demographic of Republicans that successfully use the internet for political purposes; and Mr. Dawson isn’t going to like what they have to say.

This is just PR.

Nothing more.

It is an example of why we Republican are becoming the minority party. Silly Katon, we he never learn?

Let us reccount the core conservative principles of the Republicans :
fiscal discipline, ( well the deficit is all bloated guys)
limited government, ( wow, this one needs work)
accountability,( No Republican takes accountability seriously)
and a strong national defense ( well, aside from two wars, our borders are still wide open)
Yes indeed Mr. Dawson, you need help with your core conservative principles.

Quinby -You Democrats (and I include Warren Tompkins in that mix) are so worried about maintaining the status quo that you will go to the ends of the earth vilify Rich and flush our children down the toilet.

Under Inez our system went from bad to worse. Under Rex it’s gone from worse to worst. Our children would get a better education in a cold war Soviet prison than in most public schools in this state.

It’s time for change. And Rich offers that change with no strings attached. Unlike your rent-seeking in-state special interests, he doesn’t gain a damn thing.

I mean, God forbid a philanthropist comes in and offers to help save our kids from a future as barren as yours.

Plus, y’all are all too eager to spend taxpayer money to lure gay tourists who will in turn spend more money so we can spend that on gay festivals to lure more gay tourists who spend more money to use for more gay festivals, ad nauseam. And most of those folks aren’t just from out of state, they’re from out of the country. So why the uproar when an independently wealthy person spends his out of state money — not taxpayer money — here to help rebuild our failing education system?

You’re fine with out of state money from gays, but not from a good Samaritan looking to bring about positive change for EVERYONE? I don’t get it.

Why doesn’t he just let Howard Rich write the platform? Rich and his wife already gave $20,000 to the SCGOP in ‘06, and he seems to already have King Katon in his pocket.
