An Open Letter to the Republican Party

Dear Tulsa Republican Party Leadership,

You will find that grassroots Republicans in Tulsa are:
First – Christians.
Second – Socially Conservative.
Third – Fiscally Conservative
Lastly, IF the party matches up with the first three, then Republicans.

We have no loyalty to the Republican Party; instead we have firm principles, and we will support whoever best represents those principles regardless of their party. It is for that reason that I never have, and probably never will, give money to the local Republican Party because I cannot trust that it will always be used to support candidates that I support. Instead, I contribute directly to the candidates and causes that do match my principles.

Similarly, I will not support a candidate who does not match my principles regardless of who endorses him.

Bill LaFortune has demonstrated over four years that he will not stand up for his beliefs as a Christian. (Example: LaFortune’s support of Tulsa Talks, the OCCJ, and of other religions to the exclusion of Christianity at the zoo.)
Bill LaFortune has demonstrated over four years that he is not socially conservative. (Example: LaFortune’s support of Tulsa Talks and similar gay and Muslim causes that seek to indoctrinate our children.)
Bill LaFortune has demonstrated over four years that he is not fiscally conservative.
(Example: LaFortune’s support of Vision 2025 and, well, do we need anything else?)

Bill LaFortune is not a genuine Christian, or a social or fiscal conservative. He in no way matches my values and beliefs, and as such I cannot support Bill LaFortune.

Let’s get our own (Republican) house in order; then we can unite to defeat Hillary Clinton…I mean, her sister, Kathy Taylor.

Sincerely,

Your Grassroots Support
