		<description>Pullen was published 8/15 AZ Republic, in My Turn. He said Obama wants health care plan &quot;too soon,&quot; but he did not say how soon is ok. He said &quot;too much,&quot; but he did not say how much would be ok. He said &quot;too fast,&quot; but he did not say what speed would be okay. That is why we are intellectually bankrupt as one letter writer to the editor said, we have criticisms of specific nature, but no standards of any nature. We block anything different because we are incapable of concieving in our brains that which does not yet exist because of a lack of activity in the region of the anterior cingulate cortex. We fought them on Social Security and then we fought them on Medicare. We lost because there are more bright people than us who are brainlocked into the present and the past. We will never learn. They will shove health care reform down our throats, destroy 
Hemsley who makes 3.1 million a year by denying valid claims on cheesy grounds from his post at the head of United Healthcare-the epitome of what&#039;s wrong with health care in the USA. God help us. We need more stupid people to believe anything we say.</description>

		<description>See, that&#039;s the problem with these usernames...  Now someone &quot;named&quot; Tom Liddy just posted in defense of Tom Liddy...  Its soooo confusing...  On the plus side, we&#039;re almost to 100 posts!

Hey, has anyone noticed how much attention the press has given to a whopping three staffers resigning their positions at the GOP HQ?  Considering one of them had his new job before the chair election ever took place, that hardly seems like a huge number of people.  Somehow in the papers it sounds like a mass exodus.  And one of the three is still working there for another while...  Hmm, the truth looks so different in the pages of the Republic...</description>

		<description>Someone sent me an email of a post guessing that I am &quot;Honest Abe.&quot;  I have never heard of him, not have I ever read his blogs.  I have never read any Sonoran Alliance blogs until five minutes ago.  So there you have it.

I have never been shy about posting my opinions under my own name.

I supported James over Pullen, but I do not &quot;hate&quot; Pullen, nor does he &quot;hate&quot; me.  I certainly did not predict the demise of the state Party under Pullen&#039;s leadership, nor shall I.  The Party will be just fine.  After he won, I wished him well and he very graciously responded.  He intends to make the effort to pull the 408-404 party together and he has begun that process.  He assured me he knows who the real opponents are (read Democrats).</description>

		<description>To all those wondering who &quot;&quot;Honest&quot; Abe&quot; is:

A good source informed me it is . . . Tom Liddy.

I went back to review his entries, and it makes sense.  Here are some points that support the identity:

1.  When people questioned &quot;Abe&quot; on his claims about party financing, &quot;Abe&quot; responded off the top of his head with detailed knowledge about the party&#039;s bills two years ago, when Liddy was Maricopa County Chairman.

2.  &quot;Abe&quot; predicted immediate chaos if Pullen won, and, as predicted, Tim Casey led the list of people resigning days after Pullen&#039;s election.  As it happens, Tim Casey and Tom Liddy are close, so that&#039;s how &quot;Abe&quot; knew what was coming.

3.  &quot;Abe&quot; praised Nathan Sproul&#039;s political mind, despite Sproul&#039;s terrible record, and Liddy and Sproul are close allies.

4.  When Liddy writes in his own name, he often mistakes &quot;your&quot; and &quot;you&#039;re,&quot; a recurring problem that &quot;Abe&quot; just happens to share.

5.  &quot;Abe&quot; has been aggressively posting against Randy Pullen, even to the point of putting the exact same comment on multiple blogs. Of course, Liddy and Pullen hate each other.  Remember Liddy&#039;s &quot;conservative blood in my viens&quot; speech against Pullen in the race for national committeeman? 

&quot;Honest&quot; Abe&#039;s comments wishing for the demise of the party to spite Pullen are even more disgusting when you learn Tom Liddy is behind them.  Looks like Liddy can&#039;t help but acting in ways that hurt the Republican Party, just like his daddy.  The sick apple doesn&#039;t fall far from the criminal tree.</description>

		<description>Not that I&#039;m coming out from behind my username anytime soon, but I think someone named Bumblebee just asked for us to reveal ourselves...  that&#039;s kind of funny...

GG choses to apply the quote to the present leadership.  I would apply it to those now departed and their minions whose rants on these and other pages (yup, that&#039;s you abe) make it clear that they are not in this for ideological or otherwise healthy reasons.</description>

		<description>I wish everyone would say who they really were.  Especially Honest Abe, I can&#039;t figure out who you are.  I&#039;ve got it down to two people.  Two people who I know worked very close together during the elections.  But I could be wrong.  

Your comments are all very entertaining to read.  Especially when people assume others are who they are just because they worked on Prop 107.</description>

		<description>GG,

Please hold on to your lunch and give Randy a chance. A few months and we will all know what everyone’s intentions are.

It’s not like the people running the party before didn’t want (and get) something out of the experience.</description>
