Dear Editor,
Twice you have published the statement by Liz Cheney that she would not attend the Wyo GOP Convention because Frank Eathorne is a member of Oath Keepers, a “far-right, anti-government militia.”
Let us set the record straight on three points:

  1. Cheney did not want to come to the Convention because the State Party and many County Parties censured her.  She did not want to go to hear all the boos.
  2. Oath Keepers is not anti-Government, nor is it a militia.  As for being far right, so what?  Cheney has gone to the far left with her good friends being Pelosi, Schumer, Schiff and so many others on the far left.
  3. Lastly, it is a 100% lie…yes, lie…that Frank Eathorne is a member of Oath Keepers.  CSD needs to verify these things before printing them.

As for Laramie County delegates being unseated (except for the three that are automatic in accord with the State Party By-Laws), the County leadership admitted that they had not followed the by-laws in electing their delegates.  So this was a no-brainer to not seat them.

Sincerely, Steve Kahne

Pinedale, Wyoming
