yOU HAVE NOT ATTENDED A ctgp MEETING IN AT LEAST A YEAR i BELIVE YOU AND 
YOUR CHAPTER ARE NO LONGER PART OF ctgp. i HAVE MY RIGHT UNDER FREE SPEECH 
TO EXPRESS MY OPIONS. I WAS CLEARED OF ALL CHARGES BY VOTE OF THE SCC. TIM 
BROUGHT UP AT THE SCC BEFORE ARIZ. THAT YOU WANTED TO BE THE SECOND REP 
SINCE CHARLIE COULD NOT GO AND IT WAS VOTED DOWN BY SCC AND CLIFF WENT. I 
NEED NOT APPOLOGIZE TO ANYONE GET REAL. PEOPLE ALSO HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW 
THAT YOU AND JUSTINE DONATED $10,000 TO CTGP AND I BELIVEIN MY OPINION AND 
BY YOUR ACTIONS EXPECTED AN BID PRO QUO ON PALISTINIAN ISSURES AND HEALTH 
CARE. AS A JEW IT IS MY DUTY TO POINT OUT ANTISEMITUIC SPEACH OR AGENDAS. 
MANY JEWS HAVE QUIT THIS PARTY OVER PAST YEARS EVER WONDER WHY?

>your use of the CT Green Party news to post your personal opinions is a

>>>But  my concern--no, complaint--here relates to your role as an elected

>>>In this case, neither you nor Tim informed us of this (or most any other)

>>>I only learned of the proposal yesterday from a representative from

>>>
>>>   Background
>>>   The Green Party of the United States National Commiittee passed on the 
>>>date
>>>   of 11/20/2005 a Resolution, number 190, that commits the Party to 
>>>several
>>>   actions in support of the set of principles contained therein. Such 
>>>actions
>>>   include, but are not limited to, calling on "institutions", 
>>>"organizations",
>>>   and "governments" to "implement a comprehensive divestment and boycott
>>>   program". The resolution also reinforces Party support for 
>>>'Palestinian
>>>   Refugees Inalienable Rights to Return to their homes and to receive 
>>>material
>>>   compensation for their losses'. Members of the Green-Rainbow Party 
>>>have
>>>   actively pursued public referenda to help enlist the Massachusetts 
>>>state
>>>   legislature's support for divestment, and also to have local 
>>>legislators
>>>   register their support of the right of return for the Palestinian 
>>>diaspora.
>>>
>>>   The Somerville Divestment Project has successfully petitioned to place 
>>>two
>>>   referenda on the ballot in a state representative district in 
>>>Somerville, MA
>>>   that are phrased as follows:
>>>
>>>   1) Shall the State Representative from this district be instructed to 
>>>vote
>>>   for
>>>   resolutions calling on all governmental entities of the Commonwealth 
>>>of
>>>   Massachusetts to sell any investments they hold either in Israel Bonds
>>>   or incompanies that supply military equipment to Israel ?
>>>
>>>   2) Shall the State Representative from this district be instructed to 
>>>vote
>>>   in favor of a nonbinding resolution calling on the federal government 
>>>to
>>>   support the right of all refugees, including Palestinian refugees, to 
>>>return
>>>   to their land of origin ?
>>>
>>>   The Green-Rainbow Party has endorsed both resolutions, urges the 
>>>national
>>>   party's support and endorsement of such efforts, and hopes other party
>>>   affiliates may pursue such efforts. This proposal if passed would 
>>>accomplish
>>>   one thing: The Green Party of the United States officially would 
>>>endorse
>>>   the Somerville Divestment Project's proposed referenda.
>>>
>>>   Proposal
>>>   The Green Party of the United States endorses the following two ballot
>>>   questions to be considered in the Somerville, Massachusetts state
>>>   representative district:
>>>
>>>   1) Shall the State Representative from this district be instructed to
>>>   votefor resolutions calling on all governmental entities of the
>>>   Commonwealth of Massachusetts to sell any investments they hold either 
>>>in Israel Bonds
>>>   or incompanies that supply military equipment to Israel ?
>>>
>>>   2) Shall the State Representative from this district be instructed to 
>>>vote
>>>   in favor of a nonbinding resolution calling on the federal government 
>>>to
>>>   support the right of all refugees, including Palestinian refugees, to 
>>>return
