CALIFORNIA REPUBLICAN PARTY [see attachment for signed letter on CRP letterhead]
July 11, 2011
Dear Anna:
I am very pleased to inform you that I have appointed you as a member of the Executive Committee of the California Republican Party. The Executive Committee of the California Republican Party is one of our most important committees because the committee is sometimes empowered to conduct the business of the CRP.
Traditionally, the committee meets, on a Friday, at our twice yearly conventions. Also, it is necessary from time to time to call a special session of the committee. I hope you will accept this appointment and will be available to attend all our meetings and conventions. Your appointment is based on your past involvements and loyalty to our party.
Our next convention is scheduled for September 16th - 18, 2011 at the JW Marriott/LA Live in Los Angeles. This is an exciting new venue in downtown Los Angeles and we anticipate an exciting and informative weekend for all who attend. If you cannot serve or attend the meetings please let me know right away because many others have expressed a desire to serve on the committee.
If you have any suggestions about programs or features that would make our conventions even more successful, I would love to hear them. Please feel free to email those suggestions to our special convention email address.
That email is conventions@cagop.org.
I look forward to seeing you at the convention and I appreciate all the efforts and hard work you have contributed through the years to our party.
Yours truly,
Tom Del Beccaro Chairman

Bryson, of course, at on the Orange County Republican Central Committee when first elected to the Capistrano Unified School District board of trustees, but lost that post in the last election.
And here's either a case of really burying the lede or rewarding those who stuck with this post to the end: Word is she's running for Assembly in 2014.
Heaven help us if she is in the Assembly. This is the woman who thought disgraced former Orange County Treasurer Chris Street should design and run the CUSD budget. He was found guilty of misuse of funds with which he was entrusted.
She can be a nice lady, but can't think her way out of a paper bag. There are many more more qualified Republicans who could fill that position. It should not be a reward for being the party puppet. Also, ask her her thoughts on public education. It will be rated second to private in her opinion. We need someone committed to quality public education in the Assembly.

Well, some of that youtube footage that is out there is going to make getting elected in 2014 interesting.

How can Republicans despise unions? Members join/contribute in order to have a stronger collective voice. Leaders advocate for policy/reform that members support. Those on the forefront are rewarded with luncheons/dinners sandwiched between meetings. Sounds just like the Republican Party.
The only difference would be that union "executives" serving on committees and attending conventions are elected by members, not appointed. Oh, and diversity of thought, I guess. It's not likely Anna will have a voice of her own after hearing "I have appointed you... based on your... loyalty...."
