No Jeanne, its not semantics. Semantics would be the
case if 'peace' was the subject. The subject is the
non-profit organization. Regardless of its mission,
Natalie Johnson Lee was for it politically and
financially, she has made public statements about
this.
Now that Johnson-Lee finds herself against the
co-founder of the organization, she has positioned
herself to be against that non-profit organization.
She has recently made statements downplaying the
importance of the organization that less than 30
months ago, she was fighting hard for.
Looks like Johnson-Lee got caught playing a little
politics.
The re-districting thing has been beat to death, I'll
leave that alone. Remember this, neither politician
moved, just the lines.
