He had called to explain to me why the reception would not be in Easton. I expressed to him that there was no problem and I certainly understood given the size of the crowd. We were both happy to restore the courtroom to Easton.<br /><br />Unfortunately, and for unknown reasons, I never received an invitation so I wasn't aware that it occurred last week. I would certainly have been there. Judge Smith is a former student of mine and an individual that I am very proud of. As you said he is truly an officer and a gentleman. I am sure that there were so many people to invite that my invitation was an oversight. <br /><br />My purpose for this was to let you know that it wasn't a "political" absence. As you know I attended John Brown's swearing in and Judge Sletvold's swearing in. If I would have known about Judge Smith's I would have been there regardless of an invitation. <br /><br />I despise partisan politics on the federal level and I certainly don't play that game locally.Sal Panto, Jr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02791993098945852710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-78729307347794970782014-06-09T11:47:02.849-04:002014-06-09T11:47:02.849-04:00"I would have attended the event if I wasn...<em>"I would have attended the event if I wasn't working.

However, since you brought it up, compare this blog's liberal policy on allowing opposing views to that of the lunatic who has been found to libel Bernie. The lunatic posts under multiple user names to her own blog, and allows only posts with one viewpoint - hers. So ask yourself who is biased, who is the bullshitter, and who is crazy.
