Grassroots in Michigan Uncovers Fake “Organization”
Republican Leader Apologizes for Press Release that Attempted to Mislead Delegates

In the past week I have received be-mails from those who are more than willing to launch a negative campaign against others and even worse, not sign their names to these attacks! These anonymous e-mails are nothing but gossip, rumors and innuendo and are politics at it’s worst.
So here at Grassroots in Michigan we decided to do a little investigative reporting on one of these e-mails

So how do you know which e-mails are accurate and which ones are not? You don’t unless you know the FACTS and (of course a little common sense goes long way too :)
Best practice if you
can not separate fact from fiction is ..I.U.S…..IGNORE, UNSUBCRIBE AND DELETE
Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our
inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the
state of facts and evidence.

My fellow Republicans,

Earlier this week, a statewide press release was sent out calling on Ruth Johnson to remain Oakland County Clerk for the good of the Republican Party. This press release insinuated that if Ruth Johnson succeeds in her bid to become Secretary of State, that an ACORN representative would be appointed in her place as Oakland County Clerk.

Unfortunately, I was deliberately misled and that is NOT the case. The Oakland County Circuit Court, considered a conservative bench, would replace Ms. Johnson in the event she becomes Secretary of State.

I have personally apologized to Ms. Johnson. As I indicated in the press release, Ruth Johnson has done a tremendous job for Oakland County as the Clerk/Register. I now support her nomination as the Republican GOP candidate and would urge your support as well. I believe our state would be well served by her leadership.

Again, I deeply regret the mis-information that was circulated.

Sincerely,
Joe Green
