On December 5, the Minnesota Republican Party voted to ban 18 Republican office-holders or former office-holders from participating in any official party activities for the next two years.  This even includes a ban on their representing Minnesota Republicans at the 2012 national convention.  The 18 individuals had all endorsed the Independence Party gubernatorial nominee earlier this year.  On the list are two former Republican Governors (Arne Carlson and Al Quie) and one former Republican U.S. Senator (David Durenberger).  See this story.  Thanks to Bill Van Allen for the link.

  1. Which Donkey or Elephant robot conspiracy gang will be the first to have firing squads or just merely bills/acts of attainder to deal with nonconformists ???

  3. No. The sound you hear are the lawyers in Minnesota being hired, then adding up their fees and finding out they can take that vacation to Aruba.

  4. To: Alaska Constitution Party

    The American Independent Party (California) could
    used more detail information of which manual(s)of
    proceedures they used in Minnesota GOP for trials.
    AIP uses Demeter’s Blue Book and McConnell’s Roberts Rules of Order, 2nd Edition. Does anyone
    know if they have transcripts of these internal trials?

    Sincerely, Mark Seidenberg, Vice Chairman, American
    Independent Party
