and man, are these guys getting desperate!
The series we began yesterday is to draw attention to the hypocrisy of the “Reagan Republicans.” If you have been paying attention, you will notice that they have been touting “ethics in government” as one of their key issues for the 2012 campaign. Just in the last few weeks we discovered that Reagan Republicans were responsible for “proxygate” and in another snafu a violation for Federal Election Commission’s rules. Then there is the violation of the IRS 501 (c) 4 Social Welfare designation (apparently not yet acknowledged by the IRS), which has nothing to do with all of the political activities of the Reagan Republicans. If our research confirms what we suspect, there could be some hefty IRS fines for all of the RR board members for their blatant election engineering under the guise of being “social welfare” advocates.
It now looks like we have yet another ethics breach by the “ethics champions” themselves, and that is the endorsement of Mark Fisher by Jeff Ward on Reagan Republican’s letterhead. What is wrong with this Reagan Republican endorsement is that the RR board hotly debated whether or not they would get behind either Mark Fisher for State Representative District 2 seat A, or the incumbent Rep. Vito Barbieri. The debate was inconclusive, so neither candidate was endorsed. Nothing wrong with that outcome for a divided group – no winner, no endorsement.
But what was wrong was Jeff Ward, on his own, endorsing Mark Fisher on Reagan Republican letterhead thus giving the impression that the entire organization was in fact endorsing the man. (Hey, Fish, did you pay 5K to drink the kool-aide? Mayo and Fish, a rancid Liberal sandwich! Barbieri and Hart, a solid Conservative Team!) Uncle Jeff appears to us to be a master of spin and deception (Shell Game Jeff?). Not only that, but RR’s number one target for 2012 is Rep. Barbieri’s seat-mate, Phil Hart. Our sources tell us that in 1980 Phil Hart worked on the Reagan for President campaign. While Phil Hart was hard at work to get Ronald Reagan elected, many of today’s “Reagan Republicans” were busy accusing Reagan of “voodoo economics”. However, now that Ronald Reagan is popular, all the moderates and liberals want to be known as “Reagan Republicans.”
The recent flyer that the Reagan Republicans sent out, the one that violated the FEC rules (yes, we know how much they spent), asks the question, “What would Reagan do?” We at Chuckleberries think if Reagan were alive today he would demand that this bunch of political opportunists quit using and abusing his name!
Question to RR board members: Did you approve Uncle Jeff going behind your back and endorsing Mark Fisher?
STAY TUNED…our expose continues soon with “The Shell Game”.
Time for some soul searching Tyler! Will you be led by the Pied Piper? WWRD…indeed!
It’s about time someone outed these Reagan Republican guys. I always knew something was fishy with them. I hope you post the money trail and let people see what they are really up to.
Go Bob Nonini, John Green, Phil Hart, Mark Eberline and Don Gary!
Keep up the good work Chuckleberries. How can I join?
Hey Veritas1571. When was the last time you were at a KCRR meeting? I hope you have been at a meeting recently, then you can see that what you are asking is not needed. Or are you a democrat that talks trash without knowing anything about the subject?
No, not a democrat and I know lots about the subject. I pulled the Sunshine reports myself. Been to a few KCRR meetings. Looks like the Strategery gang got a lot of moderate to liberal zombies to do the foot work for them so they can make money. So cdopa, do you own stock in Strategery? I heard KCRR board members are jumping ship now that they have started looking into the truth. Is that you Uncle Jeff, or is it Ron Burgundy, or is it ???? Who cares anyway. KCRR has been openly violating the law. Time to face the music cdopa.
