Browning & The Canine Vote

Did you think Ron Angle is the only public official who thinks he can hold two offices at one time? Well, don't tell DA John Morganelli, but LC Commissioners' Chair Dean Browning is running to keep his Lehigh County job AND for Treasurer of the German Shorthaired Pointer Club of America.

Browning has held that office before, when funds were down to $2,700, and it now has a net worth and cash position in excess of $100,000.

Dean's opponent, Jocko von Stolzhafen, two-time GSP National Champ, derisively said, "Woof, woof."

I had no idea German Shorthaired Pointers were so rich, or that they even voted.

  1. My best friends are two dogs. Dean is in Good Company. I don't trust any politician who doesn't like dogs, or if dogs don't like them.
    Dogs are a far better judge of character than most people.

  5. Dean will win again. He has plenty of people to help. Then it is on the destruction of the Tea Party leadership, that is if they don't self-destruct earlier.

  6. Dean is a good man and has a conscience, unlike many other politicians.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
