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.
what respect I had for Chuck Dent, I just lost
ReplyDeletedb is a better person than anyone else on council
ReplyDeleteI guess the economy is fine; the wars are over; and everything else a federal representative should be concerned about is resolved. That's why Charlie can spend time on local primaries.

ReplyDeleteBecause Dent is a Congressman he does not lose his rights as a voter in Lehigh County where he lives and pays taxes like everyone else. He is entitled to his opinion and he knows far better than most what the politics are in Lehigh I am glad he chimed in and endorsed a person (DB) who has served the county well and honorably for some time now
Good for Charlie! Dean is an honest, knowledgable and thorough commissioner and politician.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope Charlie does not endorse Scott Odd, as Casey alluded to in his post. Odd is a hypocrite - he runs around saying he is the real conservative, christian, etc. yet will stab anyone who disagrees with him in the back and spread rumors. And he is only about himself. Also, Odd was elected by Lehigh County Rs to represent them on Rep. State Committee, yet I hear he never attends their meetings. Some representation. How can we trust him to be a good county commissioner when he can't even fulfill his duties we Lehigh Rs already elected him to perform?!
Can someone tell me what Scott Odd has accomplished since his political run. He was selected to be the executive director of the county party, "absconded with $45,000 per year salary", never explained what he was doing, never produced a report on any kind. Now he tells us he has the knowledge and experience to be a county commissioner. Oh yes, he kept telling us that he was the "executive director" of the lehigh county republican party. WOW
ReplyDeleteApparently Dean and Charlie are trying to keep liberals from invading Lehigh County. That's what the mailings say. So much for moderate Charlie Dent. Moderates can appreciate what conservatives and liberals bring to politics. It's sad to see.
ReplyDeleteCharlie is a resident of the county? Hardly. He's all Washington.
ReplyDeleteKiss of death ... Dean Browning just put an albatros around his neck....dumb move by Browning
ReplyDeleteIsn't anyone tired of Charlie Dent yet? What would he do without Jabba the Hut writing on blogs all day long about how great his boss is...
