All,

While only an alternate in this body, I am personally very concerned with party unity and cooperation. Therefore, I have read over the initial request for a motion of censure, and while I personally respect Mr. McClendon a great deal, I currently fail to see why LP National needs to take action.  This sounds like a state affiliate issue.

We are all keenly aware of what can happen when the LNC steps into the affairs of a state affiliate. This sort of action should only ever be a last resort.

In that regard, I do hope that the state affiliate can find a peaceful resolution to this issue. We don't have enough support to be pushing people away.
