I'm really not sure why this bothers you so much WaltonGOP? They originally met at Destin Commons Panera wearing Ron Paul shirts. They had lots of people passing by asking them questions about who this Ron Paul guy was and they just decided to keep meeting there. The Panera at Silver Sands wasn't finished yet...plus because the Okaloosa group was large they left it there because some from the Okaloosa group were driving over from Niceville. Not that big of a deal.

The South Walton Country group has just recently grown and there are plans to meet soon at a place in Blue Mt Beach.

You asked on this thread earlier for people to tell you why we were voting for Ron Paul or why you should vote for him (I forgot your exact wording). I have voted Republican for years. I've been disenchanted with the GOP for several years now and had been voting for Libertarian candidates whenever possible in the last few years. I honestly feel like Ron Paul stands for what I thought the Republicans stood for years ago...small and limited government.


I was not at all excited about the election coming up until I found out about Ron Paul. Freedom has always been very important to me. I heard Ron Paul say recently in a speech that this is for Freedom, Liberty, and Peace and that about sums it up for me.

I am not sure either. I think has more to do with me pointing out that there was no meetup going on in south Walton county and being told I was wrong. Like I said earlier, it also bothers me with the Walton County Chamber holds meetings in south Okaloosa County. Maybe it is a compulsion.

Ok... I was offline for a couple days.

I'm really aggravated about this bashing of the fact that the Meetup in in the Destin Panera. And FWIW, I think you need to stop jumping to conclusions regarding the location and the improprieties you're trying to project on it.

The Destin Panera gatherings on Wednesday night started before the South Walton group was even started. It started as a part of the Okaloosa group, put together by a guy from Niceville and myself since we were both active in the Okaloosa group (II live in and attend church in SoWal but, I drop my son off at Village Baptist for AWANA on Wednesday nights... btw, no one in SoWal holds AWANA meetings or we would just go around here ).

So, it's actually an Okaloosa group activity. Does that make you feel better? I can't help it if people from SoWal started showing up

Now that the South Walton Meetup is live, we're going to start holding actual planning meetings in Blue Mountain. But, if you just want to LEARN about Ron Paul and not actually help the campaign functions, you should show up to the Panera in Destin Commons. For right now, the only meetings in SoWal, like most Meetup groups, will be organizational type meetings. We don't have time to have multiple social meetings in two places 3 miles apart with only 50ish days left until the primary.

Btw, this was added this afternoon.

Walton Business Meeting

When:
Saturday, December 15, 2007, 10:00 AM
Where:
Palmetto Family Health Care
2460 W County Highway 30A
Santa Rosa Beach , FL 32459

* Info/Map

Description:

This will be a business meeting to discuss strategy. We're in the process of getting a voter list so we can make phone calls and perhaps knock on doors. We'll talk about sign waiving, the national/state campaign, and letter writing. We'll need volunteers, so bring your friends! Contact me if there's something else you want to put on the agenda. I know it's Saturday morning but this may avoid conflicts with babysitters, Christmas parties, shopping, and church. Hopefully 10AM isn't too early!

First I hate that I am aggravating you. That is not my intent.

Second, what conclusion am I jumping too and what impropriety am I projecting onto you or your group?

The point I was trying to make.

But, if you just want to LEARN about Ron Paul and not actually help the campaign functions, you should show up to the Panera in Destin Commons.

This exchange has actually taught me enough. I do not think any additional information is going to be needed by me.

We don't have time to have multiple social meetings in two places 3 miles apart with only 50ish days left until the primary.

Blue Mountain and Destin Commons? Thought it was much further.

The Walton County Republican Executive Committee meets in Freeport (Walton County) on the third Monday of each month at 6:30 PM at the Freeport Community Center. If you are a registered Republican and wish to come and speak as to why you are supporting Ron Paul or why we should vote for Ron Paul, you are welcomed. I have made this offer to various individuals working on the different campaigns, but this is the first place I have found a RP organizer that I could have a civil conversation with.

Wouldn't it be scary if you learned about God, only through God's followers?

Boy now that is pretty profound. Maybe I do need to continue looking. Especially after seeing how several of them acted recently.

Y'all need to get over it and vote for Mitt Romney

Well, you made it sound as if we were doing Walton County a disservice by holding meetings outside of the county, which we weren't. Especially by equating it to what the Walton Chamber does, which is pretty ridiculous. Sorry for getting irritated, but I just don't like being lumped in with something that sounds disloyal considering our group is made up of very honest people. We all only voted once in the Florida (St. Pete) Straw Poll... Unlike the Romney supporters who voted 40+ times each with tickets paid for by the campaign

This exchange has actually taught me enough. I do not think any additional information is going to be needed by me.

Well, it's up to you, but there are many more of us who have a lot more to offer on the subject who haven't participated in this conversation. We span ages 17-85, civilians and military, men and women

Blue Mountain and Destin Commons? Thought it was much further.

I said "social" meetings. We have the social meetings at Panera. The organizational meeting is in Blue Mountain.

The Walton County Republican Executive Committee meets in Freeport (Walton County) on the third Monday of each month at 6:30 PM at the Freeport Community Center.

Is that next week? I'll see what I can do. We start super-voter canvassing this week for Okaloosa (still working on getting materials from National/State headquarters for Walton).
