<div dir='auto'><div dir="auto">Dear Colleagues,</div><div dir="auto"><br></div>While in theory I understand some thoughts behind this. I have a few thoughts.<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">1. That we have had several objections in the past to motions that bind a future LNC, particularly this close to our terms ending. As such this seems like something that might be best left for them to decide. If I am re-elected and if it comes before us then I would likely vote yes with some small modifications.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">2. I m done playing games. I m going to start calling crap out. This is nothing more than an attempt to stick a finger in the eye of our outgoing chair based on rumors he might push for another form of employment by the party. An attempt made in a backroom conversation made by the same people who scream about backroom deals being made. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Now I understand that concern given previous actions. I even somewhat agree. Though I also know that Mr Sarwark has far more lucrative and powerful options in front of him than to mess with this penny ante garbage.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">However take reason 1, and combine it with the fact I am tired of and done with these piles of disingenuous power game bullshit...</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"> I vote no, and will continue to do so on any motion that I feel comes from a similar place/motive. Tho I might change my mind if someone had the testicular fortitude to just come out and say all this bullshit they are playing in these little whisper campaigns. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"> By the way you all can quit coming to me with those. Take them and shove it.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Don't bother calling me out on my inappropriate response, I know it is, and I don't honestly care anymore. Plus as far as I am concerned I am responding in kind.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Sincerely, with not one regret,<br><br><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature" dir="auto">John Phillips<br>Libertarian National Committee Region 6 Representative<br>Cell 217-412-5973</div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On May 5, 2020 9:09 AM, "justin.odonnell--- via Lnc-business" <lnc-business@hq.lp.org> wrote:<br type="attribution" /><blockquote class="quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Yes<br /><br /><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature">Justin O'Donnell<br />LNC Region 8 Representative</div></div><div><br /><div class="elided-text">On May 5, 2020 9:22 AM, Richard Longstreth via Lnc-business <lnc-business@hq.lp.org> wrote:<br type="attribution" /><blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 0.8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><p dir="ltr">Yes
