S.C. GOP Seeks Input Through Internet

South Carolina Republicans aren’t planning a statewide meeting to get input into their national party platform, but the party still plans to welcome all suggestions submitted online.
The GOP is inviting people to create an account on the Web site, www.GOPPlatform2008.com, where they can then participate in polls and submit platform ideas.
State GOP Chairman Katon Dawson said the Internet outreach will improve the transparency of the platform process, and he hopes that it will give more people a sense that they own it.
They still don’t know??? For God’s sake conservatives have only been screaming about it for how many years now. They want low taxes, low government spending, a truly free market (not this federally backed crap we have now that is failing), individual responsibility and personal freedom and liberty! Basically, everything that neither the national party nor the South Carolina Republican Party stands for now, but lies to voters claiming they do! The Republican Party is obviously run by blind and deaf gimps because this message has been out there from the grassroots for a hell of a long time. It’s nothing new and the party clearly isn’t listening or simply doesn’t care because just yesterday 21 Republicans in the U.S. Senate and over 100 Republicans in the House voted against Bush’s veto of the Medicare bill that would have cut doctor’s payments with our tax dollars by 10%. Medicare and Social Security are the two biggest entitlements that are going to bankrupt this country.
