Tulsa GOP Chairman, Michael Ford |
I’ve been watching the Tulsa County GOP Chair since he took office. I really wanted to see how he practiced his politics. In the beginning he acted like he was going to set the right tone. A person’s perception changes when they achieve a little power. We now have a prime example of “Absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
What brought me to this story was this article Sooner Politics.org: Sheriff Candidate Threatened By County Party Chairman. These actions are not those of a politician, but are those of a thug. This man has no business running any political organization much less a GOP County party. He has violated his very oath for which he took to undertake this office.
The next article of interest I found was this Tulsa County Republican Convention review | Tulsa Today. This is a report on the last county convention where it was in almost as much disarray as the last State Convention. This is where Mike Ford won election to a second term as County Chair by less than one percent.
