Hi-Desert Republican Women, Federated welcomed San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools Gary Thomas, Ed.D., as their guest speaker today at the monthly membership meeting.  Of course this means that Thomas is a good Republican! :)

Thomas discussed both the successes and failures with the county’s sch0ol system.  San Bernardino County has a lot to be proud of including an on-going commitment to public/private/community-based partnerships to enhance their ability to provide services and education to our county’s youth.

So our illustrious San Bernardino County District Attorney Mike Ramos is concerned about expenses paid by former Assessor Bill Postmus out of Postmus’ campaign war chest—not exactly new news.  And also not new news is the fact that what is good for the goose is not necessarily good for the gander—pun totally intended—here in San Bernardino County.

iePolitics: Calling All Republicans

There is about a 95 percent chance that I will become the editor of the San Bernardino County Republican Women Federated newsletter again.  I decided it was better than killing myself.  It will give me something to take my mind off of my problems and somewhere to channel my energy.  If this happens, I hope to get the next edition out as close to March 1 as I can.

So, for all of you that want to contribute an article, here are the rules:

  1. Articles can be no longer than 750 words.
  2. Articles are accepted from registered Republicans only.
  3. Articles cannot focus on your campaigns but rather on issues important to you.
  4. Articles that bash other Republicans will not be published.
  5. A press photo must accompany the article if you have not submitted one in the past or have an updated photo.
  6. A very short bio must accompany the article if you have not submitted one in the past or have an updated version. (See example at the end of each article in the October newsletter:  sbcfrw_newsletter_1009_gm(2).)
  7. Links to your campaign website, Twitter, and Facebooks accounts and contact information, i.e., email address and phone number, can be sent to me and will be included in the newsletter but cannot be included in the article itself.
  8. Articles submitted in .pdf format will not be accepted.   Word, Pages, and generic text are allowed.  They can be submitted in the body of an email or as an attachment.
  9. Articles must be submitted no later than February 27, 2010 via email to info@iepolitics.com.

I will be sending out personal invitations to participate to those whose email addresses I have as soon as I know for sure that I will be the editor again.  I lost my entire email list several months ago, so if you have not received email from me recently, I likely do not have your email address.

I am hopeful this newsletter will be delivered to about 9,000 Republicans countywide.  We are working on developing a list of solid email addresses.  In exchange for the free advertising you will be receiving for your campaigns, we will ask that you forward the newsletter on to everyone in your private email lists.  I hope some of the grassroots candidates comprehend the significance of this.

In Case You Missed It:

Democrats Try to Jump on Jobs
Bandwagon

This piece was published in the Flash Report on Feb. 22.

By Sen. Bob Dutton

In sports, they’re called “bandwagoners,” – you know the type of fan that supports a team only when they start winning and become popular with the public.

Such is the case these days as those claiming to be “pro-jobs” are jumping on the bandwagon during the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression.

I have spent a career running a small business in Southern California and know first hand the responsibilities and costs of signing the front of a check as a business owner. As a result of my real-world experiences as a business owner, I brought a pro-jobs agenda with me when I came to Sacramento in 2002.

Every year since being elected I have introduced legislation to help lift the economic burdens that make California the most expensive place in the nation to do business.

Unfortunately each year nearly all of my pro–jobs measures have been killed in their first committee hearing by Democrats who control both houses of the Legislature. Continue reading →
