Tea Party News: Opinions differ inside own party

Have you ever noticed how much opinions can differ, even with people who are supposed to be on the same page? You see this quite a bit in politics and religion. I have a feeling this is due to focusing on technicalities as opposed to the big picture. And I also imagine there are people who would argue that proposition.

A contingency of local republicans for this county attended the Republican Party Convention last week. There was a group in attendance who was very outspoken and I must say quite obnoxious.

I don’t think that their cause was furthered by their behavior. I don’t think they won any friends, or influenced any people, in a positive way, by this behavior. As a matter of fact, I believe that they damaged their cause.

Why do I bring this up? As proof positive again that points are better made in an orderly manner with facts, figures and positive presentation. That’s the way it worked at the convention. That’s the way I’ve always found preferential.

How about you?
