Last week, the Minnesota GOP acted against the six House “Republicans” who voted with the Tics to override Governor Pawlenty’s veto of the “Transportation” Bill.  The House GOP Caucus stripped the six of their committee leadership positions and other party-assigned perks; movements to unseat them proceeded from the bottom up as well, with Kathy Tingelstad losing her endorsement last week, other endorsements very much in jeopardy, and with Keith Downey running a very credible campaign against Rino Ron Erhardt in Edina (which, although I don’t endorse candidates because, well, I’m just a guy with a blog, I heartily urge every Republican in District 41A to get out and support Downey at this Saturday’s convention).  

The DFLSorosMedia reacted predictably; they lauded the RINO Six as “courageous“, they insulted the intelligence of those who disagreed, they pondered “Why Are Republicans So Close-Minded?”

For acting – y’know – like a political party.

That is, actually, just background for this next bit. Ponder the DFLSorosMedia’s love of “diversity of thought” as you read this account of a moderate DFLer and long-time DFL delegate’s dissent from party orthodoxy – on abortion and the war. 

And only on abortion and the war.

And wait to see when you’ll see the DFLSorosMedia demanding “open-mindedness” from the Tics.

And wait.

And wait.
