19 September, 2004
19 September 2004Doug Grow, of The Minneapolis Star Tribune, reports on the tempest-in-a-teapot in central Minnesota's Renville County, after Texas-transplant Rick Blauvelt attempted to form a "Teen Age Republicans" chapter with an ad that read: "'This group will be a grass-roots movement to learn about how America got started, the difference between Republicans and Democrats, why the nation is split, why God is detested by our opponents and will be a force for the Republican Party in Renville County, not to be ignored.'" Blauvelt, who says he is "embarrassed" about the ad, has proposed a "more generic" correction, explaining that "those who are on the political right are on God's side; those on the political left are anti-God." The newspaper that ran the ad has refused to run the correction.
