Joe Wilson Headlining York County GOP Christmas Fundraiser
Congressman Joe Wilson will be the guest of honor at the York County Republican Party’s Christmas fundraiser. Interesting choice. The event will take place on Friday, December 11th in the Magnolia Room at Laurel Creek beginning at 6:30PM. More details below courtesy of The Herald.
ShareThis year’s featured charity is Toys for Happiness, which collaborates with United Way of York County and various other groups to help families in need.
Guests are asked to bring items to benefit children from birth through 14 years. These items range from educational toys, gifts for infants/toddlers, sports equipment, arts and crafts supplies to $10 to $15 gift cards for ages 12 through 14.
Tickets are $50 a person or $95 a couple and include a festive buffet of heavy hors d’eouvres and a cash bar. For more information, e-mail Diane Carr at dianecarr1@bellsouth.net.
Perhaps for a good cause but a truly pathetic choice for a guest of ‘honor’.
Politics makes for strange bedfellows, indeed.

Joe as the guest speaker!!!! Are you kidding me??? Sorry kids, but I won’t be able to support this fundraiser. I am starting to question why I am a Republican in the firt place! We’re going from dumb to dumber! How about trying to change to image of the CRAZY Republican to the intelligent, level-headed Republican, or are there no more level-headed, intelligent Republicans left??

Michelle, try not to be so concerned with what liberals think of you.

Thanks for the advice, but it’s getting pretty hard! The media and some of our Republican leaders are pushing the image of the loud-mouth, irate, irrational, gun-toting fools! This is not me!!! It is becoming really hard to relate to the Republican party at this time. It seems like our party is more concerned with pushing people away than getting across their views in a sensible, intelligent way.

Excellent choice. Someone with enough guts to speak out. So passionate against evil that he can’t keep quiet even when it is politically incorrect to do so. It’s about time that we give back some of what we are getting. Not afraid to call it like he sees it. It’s time to uphold the integrity and goodwill that our founding fathers intended and sometimes it can get nasty when you have something worth protecting. Down with Political Correctness. Homey don’t play ‘dat.
