Police Report Filed from Greenville GOP Fiasco

It appears the fiasco from Monday nights Greenville GOP Executive Committee meeting has moved to its next phase.

I have received a copy of the police report that was filed today at the Greenville Tech University campus against Mr. Doug Wavel.

According to Mr. Frank, he attempted to contact Mr. Wavel on August 5th and 6th to try and settle the issue, but his phone call was never returned.

Mr. Frank stated (paraphrased) that not many people liked Mr. Wavel and his antics.

We don’t need Hitler neo-nazi Republicans.  We need more old school Republicans.

It will be interesting to follow this further.  Hopefully tomorrow I can make contact with Mr. Wavel and hear what he has to say about the situation.

Greenville News Charges for Online Access to Archives

I have found it disturbing that you can no longer access archived articles on the Greenville News website.  The only way to access them now is to pay for them…$2.95 an article.

I guess the research they did a few months ago for the redesign also included finding ways to make money.  I cannot blame them for wanting to find ways to be profitable online.  The last thing I expected was to see them block the archives though.

I wonder what my readership would drop to here at The Conservativist if I only allowed access to my archives to paid subscribers.

Thankfully the Spartanburg Herald Journal still allows you to search archived articles for free.

Greenville GOP vs Democratic Nominee Bob Conley

Bob Conley and a group of supporters (Beltram is NOT one of them) showed up at the Greenville County GOP Executive Committee Meeting last night.  Let’s just say the meeting became a rules showdown between Greenville Doug Wavel and Cherokee County GOP member Brian Frank.

Last night, members of the executive committee meeting were reminded of the rules regarding the immediate vacancy of seats.  Short point…If you are publicly campaigning or endorsing a member of another party, you immediately lose your post.

Brian Frank and others have decided that Bob Conley (a supposed Ron Paul supporter) is more conservative than Lindsey Graham.  Mr. Frank decided to try and get Mr. Conley’s message across to the GOP during the new business session (Mr. Conley had left the auditorium, but was greeting folks outside).  His argument was that he was more conservative and that the people are conservative before they are republicans.

Many points of order came to be stopping the onslaught of pro-Conley monologue and a motion was finally called for adjournment.

The final point to Mr. Wavel’s argument was that we had a nominating process, Greenville county disagreed with Mr. Graham on several issues, but he overwhelmingly won the state and Mr. Graham is who we will support.

On another note, after the censure resolution in Greenville last year, individuals came to Spartanburg and tried to pass it.  Will the Conley gang show up in Spartanburg?

Spartanburg’s Executive Committee meeting will be on August 25th at Fuddruckers.  Considering the show last night, I may have to take my video camera to see what happens.
