Okay guys. We can go ahead & submit the work
that is done. We need a vote from you John on whether we will make Gregg
Chairperson. I say Paul is probably working or not around right
now.
I have a mailbox full of e-mail would you like some
of it? :) All messages received today are going straight to the Platform
list, and most messages I receive is being sent to that list.
Can we drop it & take things with a
"grain of salt" ?
Apparently the reason Gregg didn't respond to your
e-mails John was b/c his wife & daughter had to be taken up to the
hospital. Now things are doing better for them & he responded this morning
to those e-mails.
So may we get on with the Chairman
vote.....:)
Thanks,
Dana

No, I've responded to hundreds of
messages. You should think about principles & priorities (&
grammar) if you want to be taken seriously.

Gregg I sent you a number of communications
specificly asking you to make a responce. That doesn't mean a
insult. When I sent the first message to you
saying that I did notn like your draft, that was not a insult that was a
shor and to the point message and I expected that you would discuss the
reasons with the whole group. You made no reply to the group
or to me. That is not taking a part in a
discussion. I can understand that you may have taken that
personally and gotten you feeling hurt. I believed that we had
a better sypathic channel of communication, and, I could just send that
message to you, and you would understand it to indicate that I wished
to talk it over with you. I believe that had we all been
sitting at the same table you would ahve understood my
intentions. Since you did not reply to that communication and
the several others, I did not know what to
believe. jal

It means that I've been part of the group
from its inception, so why are you making this charge against
me? Gregg

The problem I have with Gregg is that he has not responded to
being part of the group in the past. This is not a
indication that I don't like Gregg, don't take it personally, we
need to interact. I realize that the lack of leadship
from Vance, Steves defection and detractions of our lives has
caused this. I do believe we need a couple more
members of this group, who are truly
interested. I'm not really saying Nay at
this time.

Well, do
you want me to chair the committee until we get a finished
platform, maybe in a few months, & then when that first
stage is done, have the next spring chicken handle whatever
seems to be the next step?

Hi Gregg I hope your family is
doing okay now. Some of us tend to get impatient with one
another. Like I said before I do not know what caused
the outburst over "abortion" I just know that it happened. I
don't have a problem with what your Platform states I said
though b/c it caused such outcry that it might be wise to
"chuck" that part of it is all.
The following is the actual
word's of the platform. Please do not read your "old"
Platforms. National has revised the Platform over the last
year and you need to get your Platform info from the
Platform online site.
Now we are supposed to discuss
this among ourselves.Yes we need someone to head the
committee. Who will it be...I personally don't know how to
write a Platform. I do know though how to keep thing's on
track & keep us productive. Remember with
Convention & raising fund's I have a full plate already.
And on weekends I cannot get back with you. I work all
weekend starting on Friday. So lets pick someone & be on
our way guy's....
I know we don't want to ignore
the issues but we need to be vague. That way candidates
don't get stuck with something twisted. I liked Greggs
Platform & didn't see anything wrong with it. I
suggested we take out the word abortion is all. Just to stay
on the safe side of the controversy.
Now I want to say
something-recently I found out that National will be holding
convention & electing someone to be "a presidential
candidate" if this is the case. I hope to encourage full
support of the candidate & that we pour our energy into
getting this candidate elected. This is our ultimate goal,
not your house of representative, senator, congressman. So
what does the LPCO do in presidential election
years????
Thanks,
Dana
Nationals Platform:.
Individual Rights and Civil Order
Women's Rights and Abortion
We hold that individual rights should not be denied or
abridged on the basis of sex. We call for repeal of all laws
discriminating against women, such as protective labor laws
and marriage or divorce laws which deny the full rights of
men and women. We oppose all laws likely to impose
restrictions on free choice and private property or to widen
tyranny through reverse discrimination.
Recognizing that abortion is a very sensitive issue and
that people, including libertarians, can hold good-faith
views on both sides, we believe the government should be
kept out of the question.
We condemn state-funded and state-mandated abortions. It
is particularly harsh to force someone who believes that
abortion is murder to pay for another's abortion.
It is the right and obligation of the pregnant woman, not
the state, to decide the desirability or appropriateness of
prenatal testing, Caesarean births, fetal surgery, voluntary
surrogacy arrangements, and/or home births.

Dana, National deals with the
issue. I believe that we must in some way deal with
all Colorado issues. We may find ways to improve
positions, but we should not ignore any.

Thanks,
Dana
