Samuel Adams

American Patriot & Politician

1722 - 1803

If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.

Hot Issues From Linn County Iowa
Saturday, 20 December 2014
Machiavelli"s First Rule
I have to confess I like to read and I read a lot.
 
The nice thing about this is that I have amassed a trove of information over the years.
 
Little bits of wisdom.  One that came to mind recently can be found in Chapter 3 of the Prince by  Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli
 
I will paraphrase.
 
Never do someone a "minor" injury.
 
I thought about that recently when I had something happened that shocked and stunned me.
 
I wrote about this in an earlier Post
 
The Night I Learned I Did Not Exist 
 
But in reality the results were shall we say Liberating.
 
Had this minor injury not been done there are things I would have been constrained from doing.
 
Like writing these posts you have been readiing.
 
About how and when and what portions of the Central Commitee's Constitution, ByLaws and Rules of Order have been broken by someone who does not deserve to be in a position of authority and/or responsibility.
 
There have been reactions.
 
One gentleman posted on his Facebook Page
 
 Have you ever had a trader amongst you? We do!

 I 

 

 

 almost rushed out and had cards printed up that said.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 
 
Trader Dan!  If we don't have it we will find it for you!!
 
My hit count went up that night and there we zero irate comments. 
 
The Chair sent me an email expressing their reaction
 

I took you to be a man of honor and integrity. As such, I was quite amazed at the amount of misinformation and outright wrong statements you have made in your blog.  I suggest that you verify your information before putting it out there for the world to read.   
 
Some of my friends jumped to the conclusion that they had said I was a man without honor and integrity.  I had to correct them and point out that was not said at all.
 
Theye merely said that had taken me (in the past) as a man of honor and integrity.
 
In any event I will stand by what I have written,
 
Because I have looked at things like this passage from the County Constitution.
 
 
The Executive
Committee is subject to the orders of the Linn County Central Committee, and none of its acts
shall conflict with actions of the Linn County Central Committee
.  
 
 
And just cannot figure out how to interpret it in a manner that allows the Chair to issue orders to or veto the decisions and votes of the Central Committee 
 
These last few weeks have been interesting and for me informative,
 
I wish to thank everyone who came by to see my missives.
 
Those who combined to form the over 425 Unique visits during the month of December AND  600 page views
 
I will see you-- Next Year.
 
I am going to take a few weeks off from politics and controversy to visit family over the holidays.
 
I will return envigorated with the New Year and Perhaps together we can determine how to rid the Committee of the millstones now around it's neck.
 
FYI anyone can claim stats for a website below you will see them as listed on my Sitemeter account.
