WILL THE MYSTERY MAN

PLEASE ID HIMSELF?

Tonight(Thursday 9/27/07), Channel 9 featured a story about the ETHICS MESS. According to Channel 9 and a "mystery man" (face was shadowed/voice altered) informant, Oklahoma Speaker of the House Lance Cargill was the person who diverted checks made out to the Oklahoma Republican Party to the Oklahoma COUNTY Republican Party. The County organization then paid for campaign activities outside their county including polling work for 5 races. The "mystery man" said the whole scheme was Lance Cargills'. Cargill issued a statement denying any involvement.

If this is true, then it's a sad commentary. Unfortunately, some Republicans believe the end justifies the means. They believe in situational ethics and are not guided by principle. That is not acceptable. Volunteer Republican activists should rise up in mass against this kind of garbage if it is true. If diverting money, violating rules, ignoring the correct protocol and using whatever means you have to to win is your bag, then join the progressive party- change your party affiliation to Democrat.

It does make a difference the way things are done. If you don't think so, read 2 Samuel 6 and the story of Uzzah.
