(Former) Vice Chair for the Orange County Republican Party central committee, Deborah Pauly, is no stranger to controversy but it looks like the latest provocation involving George Wallace stationary is the final straw.

From LA Times, “You are being used as political pawns in a game,” she told committee members.
