If you look at the results of the votes on these 13 propositions, you can say that the Democrats pushed the "no" vote high on issues that Democrats care about. For example, the largest "No" vote was against having closed primaries (number 9). The Democrats like to vote in our primaries to "mess with you", as one Democrat told me.</p><div class="adn ads" data-legacy-message-id="18e5983e5ba0e5f2" data-message-id="#msg-a:r6814916844924651750" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; border-left: medium none; color: #222222; display: flex; font-family: "Google Sans", Roboto, RobotoDraft, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; padding: 0px; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><div class="gs" style="margin: 0px; min-width: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; width: initial;"><div><div class="ii gt" id=":vs" style="direction: ltr; font-size: 0.875rem; margin: 8px 0px 0px; overflow-x: hidden; padding: 0px; position: relative;"><div class="a3s aiL" id=":zc" style="direction: initial; font: small / 1.5 Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; overflow: auto hidden; position: relative;"><div dir="ltr"><div><div>Democrats would definitely be against school choice (proposition #11) because they want all children in public schools, from which the atheists have removed prayer and the Bible. So you might think that the "no" vote against school choice was all Democrats, but you would be wrong. Proposition #11 had the fourth highest negative vote (23% said no in Collin County). There are Republicans who voted against it. I know this because I have heard home school folks speak against "school choice", where funding follows the child.</div><div></div><div>At the 2-20-24 Plano Republican Women meeting, Evelyn Brooks, SBOE 14 (we are in 12), spoke against the school choice proposition. She had printed an article to distribute to explain the concerns some people have about strings that could be attached to any money that comes from the state. It was a lengthy article, but very informative.</div><div></div><div>The article is <b>Vouchers: “School Choice” Trap</b> by Alex Newman</div><div>available for your viewing here in PDF format</div><div><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://thenewamerican.com/print/vouchers-school-choice-trap/_pdf/&source=gmail&ust=1710985237826000&usg=AOvVaw27zvUJL1-dsAGAw8FW58Ok" href="https://thenewamerican.com/print/vouchers-school-choice-trap/_pdf/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://thenewamerican.com/<wbr></wbr>print/vouchers-school-choice-<wbr></wbr>trap/_pdf/</a><br /></div><div></div><div>Here are a few paragraphs from pages 7 & 8 from the article.</div><div></div><blockquote style="border: medium none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;"><div><i>Milwaukee, Wisconsin, offered vouchers for Christian and private schools. However, they came with hundreds of regulations attached, including a prohibition on requiring Bible classes or chapel for voucher students. Similarly, Alaska introduced a program to offer financial assistance to homeschooling families that ended up being used by most homeschool families in the state. The only catch: No religious material or curricula allowed. </i></div></blockquote><div><i></i></div><blockquote style="border: medium none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;"><div><i>Prominent conservative attorney William Olson was recently commissioned by Moore’s organization to write a legal report on this issue. Headlined “Government-Funded Vouchers Endanger Biblically Faithful Christian Education,” the report cites a “long trail of cases” in which the U.S. Supreme Court found that even where government could not directly regulate private institutions, it could do so by imposing requirements and “strings” attached to public funding.</i></div></blockquote><div><i></i></div><blockquote style="border: medium none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;"><div><i>Olson first fell in love with the voucher idea after reading Milton Friedman in college. Working in the Nixon administration, he was enthusiastic about trying it out in New Hampshire, only to have the plan quashed by government-school forces, he explained to The New American. Then he read Education, Christianity and the State by J. Gresham Machen and spoke with prominent conservatives, and radically changed his view.</i></div></blockquote><div><i></i></div><blockquote style="border: medium none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;"><div><i>“I came to be more concerned about protecting Christian education from the control of the state, than getting a piece of the pie for Christian schools,” Olson said.</i></div></blockquote><div></div><div>You might already know that Hillsdale College does not accept any Federal money. They do not even take money borrowed by students from Federal loans. The college rejects Federal money to avoid the Federal government from interfering with their school, which is the reason some home schoolers don't want school choice money coming to them from the state.</div><div></div><div>Public education is becoming a threat to our liberties and the morality of our country because Marxists have been pushing a godless agenda into our schools for over 100 years. The author Alex Newman has written a short but informative book that describes how public schools have always had the intention of removing God from the schools.

I liked Ellen's answers to these questions.</div><div>I believe that our executive committee meetings will be more productive under Ellen. Our productivity problems, from my observation, come from having the county party chair fight with the executive committee (EC). The conflict has come from the chair trying to thwart the will of the executive committee. Is the role of the chair to be a dictator or a facilitator? We members of the executive committee, who are grassroots activists and citizens of Collin County, are educated, successful and independent minded people who won't be pushed around.</div><div>Quite a lot of men confuse leadership with bullying. Two of our party chairs have tried to bully me, and I think that is why they were poor leaders, because they resorted too quickly to bullying others. I do not believe Ellen Loveless will try and bully anyone. Furthermore, I do not believe that she will allow herself to be bullied by others. She has backbone. She is feisty.</div><div>Our party chairs have, in my opinion, bent under pressure. Most recently, Chair Abraham George, after the EC voted to ask Jim Pikl to resign as SD8 Committeeman, started working against the EC. After the Pikl vote, we were not allowed to conduct business for 3 months. That was a 3 month delay in endorsing the Republicans in the Princeton election for city council and ISD. Voters were seen at the polls in Princeton holding push cards that showed our endorsement. The work we do matters and we should not have a party chair that fights us. I believe after the Pikl vote that pressure was applied to our chairman and he bent under the pressure. That has to stop. I believe Ellen will not bend under pressure because she has no ambitions for higher office. </div><div>Moving beyond political reasons for supporting Ellen, there are qualitative reasons for supporting her. I think she has a good heart. She is chair of the prayer team. She is a devout Christian, and I believe we need God's blessings in these difficult times. Besides the American flag, her house flies the "Appeal to Heaven" flag.</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ9OVosTJJ1pIucTXdknYQdzWlhFzOGNI3yx1fCq5QsnKStiXRcKNefPAXAHkvpph_FztNRnCMO3eexm8pPYHcrde5d8nXO6PEveI4E3kO64WpYeIgont8D5Ey_8vtFs86JuaLq7gxY8VjwsR4sjKs_1oQD-RmXtp3b-b_x_wMFdh9-Z9rgTT7gDKGYyvs/s289/An%20Appeal%20to%20Heaven%20flag.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="289" data-original-width="233" height="289" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ9OVosTJJ1pIucTXdknYQdzWlhFzOGNI3yx1fCq5QsnKStiXRcKNefPAXAHkvpph_FztNRnCMO3eexm8pPYHcrde5d8nXO6PEveI4E3kO64WpYeIgont8D5Ey_8vtFs86JuaLq7gxY8VjwsR4sjKs_1oQD-RmXtp3b-b_x_wMFdh9-Z9rgTT7gDKGYyvs/s1600/An%20Appeal%20to%20Heaven%20flag.JPG" width="233" /></a></div></div><div>That means something to me.

You will want to attend as a delegate so you can have voting privileges.</div><div>As a delegate you can vote for:</div><div>planks to the Texas GOP party platform,</div><div>members to the State Republican Executive Committee,</div><div>the Texas delegates to the National GOP Convention,</div><div>the Texas representatives to the Republican National Committee (RNC), </div><div>the Texas members of the Electoral College,</div><div>the Chair and Vice Chair of the Republican Party of Texas. <br /></div><div>This is important. We are defining the purpose and leadership of our party. This is particularly special because it is a Presidential election year.</div><div>I will mention that I am running for a spot on the State Republican Executive Committee, running against an incumbent. I hope to gain your vote for this position, SREC SD8 Committeeman. You cannot vote for me unless you attend. I'll tell you more about this in a later email.</div><div>Be patient while I explain the process of becoming a delegate. You are elected to be a delegate to the state convention at an earlier convention, an SD convention. The Senate District (SD) conventions are held on March 23, 2024 Saturday. Almost all of you will be in SD8, Angela Paxton's district. A few of you might be in SD2, Bob Hall's District, or SD30, Drew Springer's district.</div><div>At a precinct convention, to be held on March 9, 2024 Saturday, after the primary election, you apply to be a delegate to the RPT State Convention. To attend your precinct convention you should vote in the Republican primary. The Collin County GOP will tell you the location of the precinct conventions and the SD conventions later, but for now you know the date is March 9, which is shortly after the March 5 primary election.<br /></div><div>You need to know your precinct number, which is on your registration card. You just show up at the precinct convention, which is a number of people from your precinct huddled around in a circle of chairs. At the precinct convention you will apply to be delegates to the State Convention. That is the most important part of attending your precinct convention.</div><div>At your precinct convention you can propose planks for our party platform that will be considered at the SD convention. Additional proposals for party planks can be made at the SD convention. You will vote at the SD convention for which planks you want to recommend to the state convention. Also at the SD convention you will vote on who will be delegates to the state convention.</div><div>In a nutshell, to attend the state convention you (1) vote in the primary election, (2) attend the precinct convention, and (3) attend the SD convention. The precinct convention and SD conventions are short. The precinct convention is a couple of hours long. The SD convention might be all day, 8 am to 5 pm. The State convention is 3 days long, but you can go earlier if you want to testify at committee hearings.</div><div>Here is the home page for the Republican Party of Texas (RPT) state convention:</div><div><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://texasgop.org/2024-state-convention/&source=gmail&ust=1709883954806000&usg=AOvVaw2dBU-bSE05O1ilB_usRvgQ" href="https://texasgop.org/2024-state-convention/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://texasgop.org/2024-<wbr></wbr>state-convention/</a><br /></div><div>Here is more info on the precinct conventions</div><div><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://texasgop.org/precinct-conventions/&source=gmail&ust=1709883954806000&usg=AOvVaw2j00Mbkav2M5_LMT1fuxDQ" href="https://texasgop.org/precinct-conventions/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://texasgop.org/precinct-<wbr></wbr>conventions/</a><br /></div><div>Here is more info on the SD conventions<br /></div><div><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://texasgop.org/countysenatorial-district-convention/&source=gmail&ust=1709883954806000&usg=AOvVaw0xis1NtBGbS7w3AXyBxSZf" href="https://texasgop.org/countysenatorial-district-convention/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://texasgop.org/<wbr></wbr>countysenatorial-district-<wbr></wbr>convention/</a><br /></div><div>Here is an overview of the process</div><div><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://texasgop.org/rpt-conventions/&source=gmail&ust=1709883954806000&usg=AOvVaw0puPZB-96rue0tW7f9QMWY" href="https://texasgop.org/rpt-conventions/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://texasgop.org/rpt-<wbr></wbr>conventions/</a><br /></div><div>Don't feel overwhelmed. If you just show up at the precinct and SD conventions, people will help you through it. If you do become a delegate to the state convention, I could host some zoom meetings to help you understand the state convention.</div><div>Based on past experience, there will be informative films for you. </div><div>Here's a story of how we make a difference. A neighbor went to the precinct convention and proposed a plank, also called a resolution. It was rejected at the SD convention, but she went to the state convention, gave testimony, and her proposed plank was merged in with another plank so that her efforts improved our party platform. You can make a difference. That's what the grassroots is all about, us making a difference.</div><div>At the state convention we picked eight (8) planks to make priorities for our legislators and then we watched the legislators and nudged them to get them to listen to us. And when they don't listen to us, then we have a reason to remove them from office.</div><div>This is what grassroots politics is all about: us making our voices heard.</div><div>Do please mark these dates on your calendar:</div><div>March 9, 2024 Saturday is when we have our precinct conventions<br />March 23, 2024 Saturday is when we have our SD conventions<br />May 23 – 25, 2024, is the Texas State Republican Convention at the<br />Henry B.

You will want to attend as a delegate so you can have voting privileges.</div><div></div><div>As a delegate you can vote for:</div><div>planks to the Texas GOP party platform,</div><div>members to the State Republican Executive Committee,</div><div>the Texas delegates to the National GOP Convention,</div><div>the Texas representatives to the Republican National Committee (RNC), </div><div>the Texas members of the Electoral College</div><div></div><div>I think I missed a few items, but you get the idea. This is important. We are defining the purpose and leadership of our party. This is particularly special because it is a Presidential election year.</div><div></div><div>I will mention that I am running for a spot on the State Republican Executive Committee, running against an incumbent. I hope to gain your vote for this position, SREC SD8 Committeeman. You cannot vote for me unless you attend. I'll tell you more about this in a later email.</div><div></div><div>Be patient while I explain the process of becoming a delegate. You are elected to be a delegate to the state convention at an earlier convention, an SD convention. The Senate District (SD) conventions are held on March 23, 2024 Saturday. Almost all of you will be in SD8, Angela Paxton's district. A few of you might be in SD2, Bob Hall's District, or SD30, Drew Springer's district.</div><div></div><div>You are elected to be a delegate to the SD convention at an earlier convention, a precinct convention, to be held on March 9, 2024 Saturday, after the primary election. To attend your precinct convention you should vote in the Republican primary. The Collin County GOP will tell you the location of the precinct conventions and the SD conventions later, but for now you know the date is March 9, which is shortly after the March 5 primary election.<br /></div><div></div><div>You need to know your precinct number, which is on your registration card. You just show up at the precinct convention, which is a number of people from your precinct huddled around in a circle of chairs. You will determine who will be invited to be delegates to the SD Convention. That is the important part of attending your precinct convention is that you get to go to the next convention as a delegate, your SD convention.</div><div></div><div>At your precinct convention you can propose planks for our party platform that will be considered at the SD convention. Additional proposals for party planks can be made at the SD convention. You will vote at the SD convention for which planks you want to recommend to the state convention. Also at the SD convention you will vote on who will be delegates to the state convention.</div><div></div><div>In a nutshell, to attend the state convention you (1) vote in the primary election, (2) attend the precinct convention, and (3) attend the SD convention. The precinct convention and SD conventions are short. The precinct convention is a couple of hours long. The SD convention might be all day, 8 am to 5 pm. The State convention is 3 days long. You can go earlier if you want to testify at committee hearings.</div><div></div><div>Here is the home page for the Republican Party of Texas (RPT) state convention:</div><div><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://texasgop.org/2024-state-convention/&source=gmail&ust=1705734721977000&usg=AOvVaw2ge4UrBZ7TyGqFmltzoHwF" href="https://texasgop.org/2024-state-convention/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://texasgop.org/2024-<wbr></wbr>state-convention/</a><br /></div><div>Here is more info on the precinct conventions</div><div><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://texasgop.org/precinct-conventions/&source=gmail&ust=1705734721977000&usg=AOvVaw1RzlRdzKAzaDpBrM-1HDLc" href="https://texasgop.org/precinct-conventions/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://texasgop.org/precinct-<wbr></wbr>conventions/</a><br /></div><div>Here is more info on the SD conventions<br /></div><div><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://texasgop.org/countysenatorial-district-convention/&source=gmail&ust=1705734721977000&usg=AOvVaw0rPEqFl5f_DSINEOBzo6NU" href="https://texasgop.org/countysenatorial-district-convention/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://texasgop.org/<wbr></wbr>countysenatorial-district-<wbr></wbr>convention/</a><br /></div><div>Here is an overview of the process</div><div><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://texasgop.org/rpt-conventions/&source=gmail&ust=1705734721977000&usg=AOvVaw2Ywu5tA3M3nVoXkghKhslI" href="https://texasgop.org/rpt-conventions/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">https://texasgop.org/rpt-<wbr></wbr>conventions/</a><br /></div><div></div><div>Don't feel overwhelmed. If you just show up at the precinct and SD conventions, people will help you through it. If you do become a delegate to the state convention, I could host some zoom meetings to help you understand the state convention.</div><div></div><div>Based on past experience, there will be informative films for you at the convention that you might like. </div><div></div><div>Here's a story of how we make a difference. A neighbor went to the precinct convention and proposed a plank, also called a resolution. It was rejected at the SD convention, but she went to the state convention, gave testimony, and her proposed plank was merged in with another plank so that her efforts improved our party platform. You can make a difference. That's what the grassroots is all about, us making a difference.</div><div></div><div>At the state convention we picked eight (8) planks to make priorities for our legislators and then we watched the legislators and nudged them to get them to listen to us. And when they don't listen to us, then we have a reason to remove them from office.</div><div></div><div>This is what grassroots politics is all about: us making our voices heard.</div><div></div><div>Do please mark these dates on your calendar:</div><div>March 9, 2024 Saturday is when we have our precinct conventions<br />March 23, 2024 Saturday is when we have our SD conventions<br />May 23 – 25, 2024, is the Texas State Republican Convention at the<br />Henry B.

This means that in counties controlled by Democrats, the Democratic party is free to cheat in the elections knowing that a Democrat District Attorney will not prosecute their party and that the Attorney General has been made powerless by the judges on the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals.</div><div style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">The Attorney General (AG) has had the power granted by the legislature to prosecute election fraud for many years.

Judges and District Attorneys and prosecutors can be dishonest and so can the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals be dishonest. But we can vote out the bums on the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals.</div><div style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Many of us called and emailed the Judges on the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals and told them that we would wait for their reelection and do our best to remove them.

On the first page, 6 lines below "Dear Fellow Texas," our representative said, "... I can assure you, this was the most successful Legislative Session for our state." I was shocked by this statement.<br /><br />We are now in the 4th Special Session because <u>this has been the most spectacular failed session</u>. After the regular session and after 3 special sessions, they still cannot perform. The Governor had to call a 4th special session because our House Representatives fail again and again. This costs the taxpayers money.<br /><br />Then I get a political advertisement in the mail from our HD66 representative where he says he is, "A conservative leader we can trust." What was that? Can we trust him after he calls the massive failure of the 88th session and the subsequent four (4) special sessions a great success?<br /><br />After the Texas House, including all the 5 Republican Representatives in Collin County vote to impeach our Attorney General in a lawless kangaroo court, he calls this a successful session? The Texas Government Code, in section 301.022, says that testimony in a general investigating committee <u>must be sworn testimony</u>, but the committee did not take sworn testimony, breaking their own laws, which is why I call it a lawless kangaroo court.<br /><br />I have heard that 6 representatives voted "no" on the impeachment based on the violation of section 301.022. This impeachment of Paxton was a massive boondoggle, whether you like Paxton or not, the process for impeaching him was awful.<br /><br />Watch this video<br /><b>Rep Smithee rises in opposition to the adoption of HR2377, the articles of impeachment for AG Paxton</b> (19 minutes)<br /><a href="https://youtu.be/NwzPWa5Xxm4?si=2etTht5z3z2p8sPv">https://youtu.be/NwzPWa5Xxm4?si=2etTht5z3z2p8sPv</a><br /><br />Rep Smithee knew this impeachment process was wrong, he said it, but our state rep ignored the wise council of Rep Smithee, just like our rep ignored our requests that he vote against the impeachment.<br /><br />On a personal note, I like Matt Shaheen, but I think it is time for us to retire him. He is too out of touch.<br /><br />His mailers will work on the uninformed. We have to inform our friends and neighbors about the shortcomings of our state representative, and explain to them why we need a change. It is work to remove an incumbent, so we all need to work together to improve our representation.<br /><br />We are lucky that we have a great challenger in Wayne Richard. We all need to pitch in and help him succeed.<br /><br />Robert</p>Robert Canrighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05678252853267050464noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-997954753081149898.post-1963465347615008652023-11-20T21:40:00.000-08:002023-11-20T21:44:48.574-08:00Beware of right wing deception<p> <span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #222222; display: inline; float: none; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Dear Friends and Neighbors,</span></p><div style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">I wish to caution you about a video that is popular with conservatives I know and like.

You don't know everything. You cannot know this." I have a baloney filter that catches this nonsense. Carl Sagen talked about you having and developing a baloney filter. When you accept a falsehood as a truth, you are damaging your baloney filter. People are lying to conservatives all the time.

Oct 19, 2021 </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">It is time for us to become aware of
a war raging within the Republican Party. It has been going on for years,
but has not been discussed much. We need to be aware because this war is
leading to election fraud and sabotage of the Republican grassroots.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Let me tell you what made me wake up
and see the problem. The 9-23-21 issue of the Wall Street Journal said
that George W. Bush was scheduled to host a fundraiser for Liz Cheney in
Dallas on 10-18-21, which is today [1]. You know already that the Wyoming
GOP has censured Liz Cheney for voting to impeach Donald Trump. Liz Cheney
has said that she "will do everything I can to ensure that the former
president never again gets anywhere near the Oval Office." [2] Wait
a minute. The voters pick our President, not a RINO from Wyoming.
Right?</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtpzSPPaf84ywR3Q6YafZk5FyL_CR2U5OFAWXiyHd2LF6nlq6F8Df-z8siP0a-3Sti1ApdEz1mDcR-BHKNjyMmrZU4NqpgAJHgD2hapN0X73UQnF7ylTIRZha8vGXQe2Fqc3iNbudmVqGKtkUiYXh-rrKaHw71WBp2GUwiKGXke6FMX70vPpWmKC_k5wA4/s618/Liz%20Cheney.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="415" data-original-width="618" height="215" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtpzSPPaf84ywR3Q6YafZk5FyL_CR2U5OFAWXiyHd2LF6nlq6F8Df-z8siP0a-3Sti1ApdEz1mDcR-BHKNjyMmrZU4NqpgAJHgD2hapN0X73UQnF7ylTIRZha8vGXQe2Fqc3iNbudmVqGKtkUiYXh-rrKaHw71WBp2GUwiKGXke6FMX70vPpWmKC_k5wA4/s320/Liz%20Cheney.PNG" width="320" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /> <br /></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I finally realized that the Republican
Establishment, with Liz Cheney as their most visible tool, believes it has
the right to pick the President, not the people. Rod Rosenstein, a
Republican Deputy Attorney General admitted he conspired to overthrow Trump
with the 25th Amendment, but his conspiracy fell apart. George W.
Bush endorsed Joe Biden, and Bush has not apologized. Look at what a
disaster Biden is, and Bush is doubling down, fundraising for Liz Cheney.
Look at how the Republican Establishment followed Bush in endorsing
Biden. Establishment Republican General Colin Powell (retired) went
to the Democratic National Convention in 2020 and endorsed Joe Biden, following
the lead of his patrons, the Bush family.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Arizona GOP Chairwoman, Dr. Kelli
Ward, told us in Dallas at Debbie Georgatos' "Women and Freedom"
summit that there was massive cheating in Maricopa County, Arizona and 4 of the
5 County Supervisors were Republicans who fought the audit tooth and nail,
refusing to honor subpoenas. Across America, appointed or elected
Republican officials helped the Democrats steal the 2020 Presidential Election.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">This is a betrayal of trust on
many levels. One betrayal is the principle of two parties that are a
check and balance to each other. The Republican Establishment has shown
us that they belong to a Uniparty, a group of rich and powerful people in the
shadows trying to control both parties so there is in effect only one real
party, the Uniparty of the Globalist Establishment.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">As Dr. Quigley put
it, "The two parties should be almost identical, so that the American
people can 'throw the rascals out' at any election without leading to any
profound or extensive shifts in policy," [3] The Bush family and
their crowd have been lying to us all these years, pretending to be conservatives.
Also raising money for Liz Cheney are John Boehner and Paul Ryan, both former
GOP House Speakers, Senators Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, and Mitt Romney,
The group scheduled to attend the Bush fundraiser include Karl Rove, former
Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson, and Ray Hunt, CEO of Hunt Oil Co. The rich
and powerful have lined up against the American people, against the Republican
grassroots, and they have worked against our nation, not just our party.
Look at what Biden did in Afghanistan, and the Republican Establishment shares
the blame for this disaster.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">You better believe the RNC is part
of the Establishment. Here is what Rich Higgins saw at the White
House: "Trump turned to the RNC when he needed to staff his
administration. And the RNC took the opportunity to blackball Trump supporters
and bring in its kind of people. McCain people. Bush people.
Romney people....On staffing, the neocons, Never-Trump, and the Republican
Establishment just ran the table, Even Democrats managed to break through
the hiring process...." [4] It is a miracle Trump accomplished as
much as he did with the Establishment Republicans and Obama holdovers fighting
him, openly calling the Deep State "the Resistance."</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Our betrayers run the gamut from
Washington,D.C., to the county level, as in Maricopa County. Remember the
Bushes live in Texas, so you know Texas has Establishment Republicans who work
against the Republican Grassroots. Perhaps this is why Dade Phelan, the
Texas Speaker of the House, stabs us in the back. Perhaps he is part of a
hoard of rats gnawing away at the fabric of our Republican Party.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Now that we know that the grassroots
are under attack, we can prepare to defend ourselves. The first step is
to not donate money to Establishment Republicans. After that will be a
battle between the people and the American Aristocracy, which is what the
Establishment is. The American Revolutionaries overthrew the tyranny of
the rich when they defeated the army of the King of England, the head of the
British Establishment. The rich are trying to take over our country using
Communists like Bernie Sanders inside the Democratic party and using
Establishment Republicans. We can stop them and save our republic, but it
will be some work.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">We have to be committed in our work for
the sake of our liberties and for our children and grandchildren. </span></p>

Inside the Deep State Fighting for America First</b>, by Rich Higgins, page 156</span></p>Robert Canrighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05678252853267050464noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-997954753081149898.post-42517921106581405252022-10-29T20:54:00.003-07:002022-12-30T17:21:18.668-08:00A Threat to Our Republic<p>Our Constitutional Republic is defined by our Constitution. I am alarmed at how often the Democrats have been disparaging our Constitution. I will bring a couple of articles to your attention. A recent article from the New York Times is, "<b>We Had to Force the Constitution to Accommodate Democracy, and It Shows</b>" by Jamelle Bouie, 10/7/22.
<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/07/opinion/constitution-democracy-biden-trump.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/07/opinion/constitution-democracy-biden-trump.html</a></p>
<p>The article says the Constitution "<i>undermines American democracy</i>," and it complains of "<i>lopsided representation in the Senate and the Electoral College</i>." The Democrats are upset that the large states cannot crush the small states because of the Senate and the Electoral College.</p>
<p>Here is another article attacking our Constitution: "<b>The Republican Party Is Succeeding Because We Are Not a True Democracy</b>" by Jedediah Britton-Purdy, NYT Jan. 3, 2022
<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/03/opinion/us-democracy-constitution.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/03/opinion/us-democracy-constitution.html</a> </p>
<p>This article says "<i>today’s Republican Party succeeds only because of the Electoral College</i>". Do you get that? If they can get rid of the Electoral College, they can destroy the Republican party.</p>
<p>This section of text from the article is very disturbing: "<i>Maybe we can revive mass movements for amendments, ... If the public supports a constitutional amendment to limit money in politics, ...or enshrine a core abortion right, a committed majority should be able to say what our fundamental law is by popular vote.</i>" The mass movement they refer to is called "Convention of States" (CoS). The reference to popular vote is a plan to ratify a new Constitution with a national popular vote like the Communists tried in Chile recently.</p>
<p>The left is already planning to hijack the work of Convention of States and to change the ratification process. Just think: CoS is working to make the dreams come true for the Democrats of eliminating the Electoral College and destroying the Republican Party.</p>
<p>We should all be scared to death of an Article V convention in this dangerous time in our Republic. But why are our conservative friends working to help the Democrats? We all know really nice people who are committed to CoS. I like the rank and file in CoS. They are great people, but they are deceived. Their problem is that they do not understand deception and betrayal. They cannot tell when they are being lied to.</p>
<p>I recommend everyone read the book, "<b>A Vietcong Memoir</b>" by Truong Nhu Tang. You will learn that we lost Vietnam because the South Vietnamese government was riddled with traitors like Mr. Tang. His father warned him that the North Vietnamese were lying to him, but he would not listen to his father. He dedicates his book, "<i>to my <u>betrayed comrades</u>, who believed they were sacrificing themselves for a humane liberation of their people</i>." Do you notice he says they were all betrayed?

<p>Mr. Tang dedicated his life to overthrowing the South Vietnamese government, and then fled Vietnam as one of the many "boat people". The CoS people do not understand betrayal even when it is right in front of them.</p>
<p>Why do the CoS folks cling so firmly to their fantasy? Read "<i>The True Believer, Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements</i>" by Eric Hoffer.
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/True-Believer-Thoughts-Movements-Perennial/dp/0060505915/">https://www.amazon.com/True-Believer-Thoughts-Movements-Perennial/dp/0060505915/</a> </p>
<p>Nationwide people are waking up to the dangers of an Article V convention. Iowa Republicans are opposed to an article V convention.</p>
<p>2022 Iowa Republican Platform, As adopted at the State Convention on Saturday, June 11, 2022, added this plank:</p>
<p>22. We believe the United States Constitution, when properly obeyed and enforced, is an effective and timeless guiding instrument for the governing of our nation. Therefore, in view of the dire warnings from James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, four US Supreme Court Justices, and other eminent Jurists and scholars, we are opposed to the proposals of organizations such as “Convention of States” to ask Congress to call an Article V Convention.</p>
<p>Be careful, friends, when you hear the CoS sales pitch. Iowa got it right and we have to catch up.</p>

<p>
<b>Standing in the Gap - Election Fraud</b>

<p>I downloaded a digital copy, connected my laptop to the big screen TV, and watched it.
It is worth watching. (It is on DVD if that is your preference.)</p>
<p>He is a law professor (fired for refusing the jab) who was a former prosecutor. He has studied lots of affidavits and he says there is plenty of evidence of election fraud from 2020 to prosecute and convict people, if courts would hear the evidence.</p>
<p>He is working so hard to spread the truth about our stolen election that I would call him a Hero of the Republic. When we restore the Republic and reestablish Liberty, we should have "Hero of the Republic" medals.</p>
<p>If you want to explore further, you can visit his website
<a href="https://www.theprofessorsrecord.com/">https://www.theprofessorsrecord.com/</a>
</p>
He is on Telegram at "The Professor's Record."
<p>I got to spend some time talking with him the next day. I tell you that he is a Godly man. We must lift up our prayers to God to watch over David Clements, bless his work, and restore our Republic.</p>

All across America, RINOs were supporting the Democratic Party, the Bushes here in Texas being one example. You know that the Mafia over the years has bought off judges, and in that manner the Democrats buy off our Republican elected officials. Some of the RINOs have been wolves in sheeps clothing forever, believing in Globalism and the New World Order, the Republican voters just being sheep to be sheared as the RINOs advance their personal agenda. Remember that Globalism and the New World Order are fundamentally anti-American. Now that we have an anti-American as President, we are sliding into totalitarianism. Those of you looking for an interesting read, I recommend The Psychology of Totalitarianism by Mattias Desmet. It will help you better understand what is happening around us. This is a worldwide phenomenon because the Globalists have made their big push to take over the governments of the world.

The article at this link (below) says that a number of Republican elected officials are supporting a Democrat in the race for Governor of Pennsylvania.

<P>The Republican candidate is Doug Mastriano. You will remember that State Senator Doug Mastriano ran an investigation of the fraud in Pennsylvania during the 2020 election. Here is a link to his hearings on C-SPAN.

Some of the mud they are throwing at him is that years ago, while at the War College, he posed for a photo wearing a Confederate uniform. I had family fight on both sides of the Civil War. We had no hatred in America regarding the Civil War until the Democrats started using hatred as their motivation starting with the 2016 election. Remember what the Communists know, "The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the Revolution."
These turncoat RINOs in Pennsylvania are called "Controlled Opposition." It is a standard technique of the Communists. Here is a description

<p><i>A controlled opposition is a protest movement that is actually being led by government agents. Nearly all governments in history have employed this technique to trick and subdue their adversaries. Notably Vladimir Lenin who said ''The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves."</p>
<p>Count Mirabeau was part of the controlled opposition, because although everyone thought he was supporting the revolution, in reality he supported the monarchy and was a personal friend of the king. He was a government agent.</i></p>

<p>To understand today's Democratic Party, you need to understand Communism. You must understand that Communism is not against Capitalism. Not at all; not anymore. The contest is not between Communism and Capitalism. The contest is between Crony Capitalism and Free Market Capitalism. Communists all over the world practice capitalism; they just practice Crony Capitalism, where the Oligarchs are loyal to the Communist/Democrat party.</p>
<p>Don't look at Zuckerberg and say "capitalist." Look at Zuckerberg and say "Oligarch." Remember that Zuckerberg selected Biden, not the voters. This is what oligarchs do.</p>
<p>It is up to us to recognize totalitarianism and controlled opposition when we see it. It is not enough to know. We must also act. And what I am doing today is donating to Doug Mastriano.</p>

<p>We cannot win a battle if we do not know our adversary. Our adversary is Totalitarianism. Their tool is fear and hatred. First they used Jihadi terrorists to scare us into accepting the dangerous Patriot Act, which was used against our own President. Then they used Covid to scare us. Now they are trying Monkey Pox. Haven't we figured out their game yet? Can't we say, "Enough! Stop it! You cannot fool us anymore!"</p>

Senator John Cornyn's gun control bill, S.2938, the "Bipartisan Safer
Communities Act". I have not seen anyone write about the
biggest danger to our country that is buried inside this betrayal. Some
of the problems with this bill are part of a slow acting cancer that has been
attacking our country for almost 100 years. This bill is very dangerous

will lay out for you. (1) The great speed with which this bill was
passed is an indication that this bill is both sneaky and dangerous. (2)
This bill is a sneak attack on our children. (3) Our children have

historical context. I think you will all remember Nancy Pelosi's famous
statement that Congress needed to pass Obama Care in order to discover what was
in the bill. You can watch her say it here, "<i>But we have to
pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it</i>..." <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QV7dDSgbaQ0" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QV7dDSgbaQ0</a><br /></span></p>

2008 that Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, former head of Goldman Sachs, permitted
Wall Street financiers to run amok with sub-prime mortgages and wreck the world
economy? Not only were Americans hurt by the sub-prime mortgage collapse,
but banks around the world collapsed and the entire nation of Iceland went
bankrupt. Does the American press remind you that Wall Street financiers
are a threat to the entire world? Or are they busy denying that Biden
stole the 2020 election? The point is that there was a concern the entire
world economy was going to collapse, so Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson
threatened Congress with Martial Law if they did not pass the Troubled
Asset Relief Program (TARP) without really understanding it: <a href="https://apjjf.org/-Peter-Dale-Scott/3010/article.html" target="_blank">https://apjjf.org/-Peter-Dale-Scott/3010/article.html</a><br /></span></p>

first time Congress passed an important bill without reading it was the
Emergency Banking Act of 1933. The administration of FDR refused to print
a copy of the bill so that Congress could read it. FDR was sworn in on
March 4, 1933 and the bill was passed March 9, 1933, five days after FDR took
office. Congress was told the American economy would collapse if this
bill was not passed quickly, which was ridiculous because the Great Depression
had been going on for years. There was sneaky stuff in this
"emergency" bill. Here is what William Manchester writes about
this bill in "The Glory and the Dream, vol. 1", pp. 93-94:
"<i>It was, in fact, a shocking measure, ratifying all acts 'heretofore or
hereinafter taken' by the President and the Secretary of the Treasury</i>."</span></p>

was passsed quickly was the Tonkin Bay Resolution. On August 2 and 4,
1964, there were false reports made about North Vietnamese attacks on U.S.

has finally been published we first notice that the bill was originally created
to rename a couple of Federal buildings. When I first heard that the bill

see buildings being renamed. Notice than an amendment can completely
change a bill. Remember this and know that an Article V convention can
take the entire U.S. Constitution and replace it with a new progressive
constitution and call the replacement an amendment. Amendments can be
deceptive, and no one is better at deception than the Democratic Party.</span></p>

fundamentally transform the United States. He wanted it to look more like the
Soviet Union, in fact. To do that, he believed a total transformation of
education and society was required—literally “changing the conception of what
constitutes education,” as he wrote in “The Relation of Theory to Practice in
Education” in 1904. Education must bring about a “new social order,” he
argued. As was the case with virtually all of the key figures involved in
the government takeover of education, Dewey rejected Christianity and even the
very existence of God.</span></i><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></p>

know that our children are under spiritual assault with racist bigotry called
Critical Race Theory (CRT), under spiritual assault with anti-American
propaganda called the 1619 Project, and under spiritual assault with
the promotion of sex, pornography, and transgenderism.</span></p>

1950's, under Eisenhower, schools have been abandoning teaching facts and
skills and have focused on indoctrinating children in an effort to promote
social skills. Here is a quote from page 960 of "The Glory and the
Dream, vol.2" by William Manchester: "<i>Some parents
objected. They wanted to bring back Latin, chemistry, integral calculus
-- courses that colleges and universities wanted. Smiling principals
shook thier heads and replied, 'We teach the child, not the subject.</i>'

debacle was so bad that children could no longer be successfully taught to

Sputnik so embarrassed America that Eisenhower had passed the National Defense
Education Act of 1958 to try and improve education.</span></p>

"educators" are more interested in promoting Social and Emotional
Learning along with a host of left wing political propaganda. CRT and
pornography in the schools have finally awakened enough parents to lead to
protests and contested school board elections. The problem of progressive
educators working to brainwash our children has been going on for a very, very
long time and some parents are only now waking up to problems in our
schools. The move by John Cornyn to push our children into mental health
counseling inside the schools, orchestrated by left wing political hacks inside
the CDC, could be the tipping point where morality and decency is finally destroyed
in America.</span></p>

Adams said that, “<i>Our Constitution was made only for a moral and
religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other</i>.”
Bad schools, propagandizing our children into left wing beliefs, are an
existential threat to our Constitution, our country, and our whole way of life.</span></p>

For a couple of years now I have become involved as a Republican volunteer. When I ran for school board, as far back as 2006, I had no contact with the Republican Party. Since then I have volunteered to be a precinct chair.</p><p>I am retired now and have more time to research what is happening in local politics. What I have discovered is that Collin County voters do not know what is going on in local affairs unless they talk with knowledgeable precinct chairs.</p><p>When I ran for the PISD board, some of my opponents copied what I put on my website and put my ideas on their websites so the voters could not see the difference. So you cannot go to a candidate's website and really learn about the candidate. Newspapers are owned by wealthy people who use their papers to manipulate elections by manipulating the facts available to their readers. We cannot trust the press. Our elected officials are frequently untruthful. You have to go to many political meetings to see your elected officials changing their story depending on the audience.</p><p>I spend a lot of time communicating with people. I hope this blog will help me reach more people more effectively. I hope to help disperse the fog of deception that surrounds us in politics. And I hope to share useful information and ideas with you to empower you to be a well informed voter. You cannot be well informed if all you do is watch TV.</p><p>Thank you for your time,</p><p>Robert Canright</p><p>Collin County, Texas, Republican Precinct Chair</p><p>The statements I make here are my own opinions and do not represent the views of the Collin County Republican Party, the Republican Party of Texas, nor the Republican National Committee <br /></p><p><br /></p>Robert Canrighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05678252853267050464noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-997954753081149898.post-22033526429608881772011-04-27T19:10:00.000-07:002022-07-17T08:53:42.205-07:00PISD Out of Control Spending<p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7aqx4aZCG56iUaD_wQqsWw55FOz_nzHUhOtACDDVUOKqR-ZWluoSJezJwbBvfBlxXAslfN6kvE0AdaUNfij7Tl-DI2f6ChKD7YKUMCDmkmZWqGuLA45oK7DmYHmIwVOikw8slpshyphenhyphenZP1v/s1600/Plano_Spends_Most_2011.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600456717467054434" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7aqx4aZCG56iUaD_wQqsWw55FOz_nzHUhOtACDDVUOKqR-ZWluoSJezJwbBvfBlxXAslfN6kvE0AdaUNfij7Tl-DI2f6ChKD7YKUMCDmkmZWqGuLA45oK7DmYHmIwVOikw8slpshyphenhyphenZP1v/s400/Plano_Spends_Most_2011.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 300px; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; width: 400px;" /></a>I have been in shock for a week after the Plano ISD Board of Trustees voted to saddle the district with a White Elephant. It has been a bad week in Plano. A young lady who worked at the Gleneagles Country Club was kidnapped and murdered. It has been a terrible week. </p><p>And it is a terrible thought to realize that our Board of Trustees excels in spending money, not in educating our children. If you double-click on the embedded image, you can see it full size. You will see that Plano spends more per student than our neighbors, who have better test results. You will also see we pay more to our superintendent than the other districts. </p><p>I have come to realize that the Old Guard on the school board must excel in what they value: spending money. This is why they felt compelled to buy an office building that has sat empty for years, even though they have no real plans for the building. They do not have a firm plan for the Academy, but they buy a building anyway. The administration had the audacity during the board meeting to suggest this building is essentially free: the bond money was "left over" money from a previous bond issue, and the operational expenses will rain down from rich donors. </p><p>Carrolyn Moebius and Marilyn Hinton were a disappointment. When they were elected I thought they would make a difference, but they joined the Old Guard in rubber stamping the administration's spending plan. Marilyn Hinton explained that she placed her trust in the administration, which is what a rubber stamp does. Their failure on the board makes it imperative we make the right choice for Place 4.</p><p>It is unfortunate we do not have a good candidate for the Place 4 position. </p>Robert Canrighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05678252853267050464noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-997954753081149898.post-27138621997783676482011-04-10T14:15:00.000-07:002011-04-10T14:42:02.406-07:00David Stolle for PISD Board<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8TdPO0VBfrQ5LSnZCFUw8-euiLWVB0wOZb8p-tFncbIQeFJwS4dwR-7ib3M4wvvXQH4YkqgaIykcxYsmh4dZXc9cdM1QLbTEWjPrrrI3UofWcJWGR9utd3-vLXFmAm-KDMAs-jisQpRSW/s1600/Achievement_comparisons_2011.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8TdPO0VBfrQ5LSnZCFUw8-euiLWVB0wOZb8p-tFncbIQeFJwS4dwR-7ib3M4wvvXQH4YkqgaIykcxYsmh4dZXc9cdM1QLbTEWjPrrrI3UofWcJWGR9utd3-vLXFmAm-KDMAs-jisQpRSW/s400/Achievement_comparisons_2011.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5594069452597194354" border="0" /></a>After the League of Women Voters forum on April 9, 2011, I decided to endorse David Stolle for the Plano ISD Board of Trustees, Place 5.<br /><br />David's opponent said he was going to defer to the administration because they are professionals. David's opponent explained that he would not want the PISD administration to tell him how to run his law practice, so he is not going to tell the PISD administration how to conduct their business. This is exactly what is wrong with the Old Guard on the board of trustees.<br /><br />By constantly rubber stamping the administration's decisions, the Old Guard has allowed the quality of Plano schools to slip. See the accompanying chart of last year's TAKS results. Plano has significantly more struggling schools than our neighbors: Allen, Richardson, and Frisco. Plano has significantly fewer Exemplary schools than our neighbors. Frisco and Allen are Exemplary districts while Plano is only a Recognized district.<br /><br />The quality of Plano schools has slipped because the Old Guard forgot who they served. The Old Guard, by deferring to the administration, serves the administration instead of the community of Plano. The lack of oversight by the board has led to a continuing slip in the quality of our children's education.<br /><br />The board of trustees does not have to tell the administration <span style="font-weight: bold;">how </span>to do their jobs, but the board must say <span style="font-weight: bold;">no </span>to the administration when a mistake is being made.<br /><br />Please vote in the Plano ISD election. Early voting is May 2 - 10. Election Day is Saturday May 14. Please vote for David Stolle for Place 5.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Robert Canright<br /><br /></span><span>PS: Double click on the chart and you will see a larger version.</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span>Robert Canrighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05678252853267050464noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-997954753081149898.post-54632471901902490742011-04-08T17:37:00.000-07:002011-04-08T17:42:06.968-07:00Plano League of Women Voters Candidate ForumThe League of Women Voters of Plano/Collin County will host a public candidate forum to provide information to voters for the coming May 14 Local Election.<br /><br />The candidate forum will be Saturday, April 9, 10:30 a.m. – 12:45 p.m., at Schimelpfenig Library, 5024 Custer Road, Plano, TX 75023.
