Gloria Hamm: Don't Forget About Human Services

A R.N. by training and education, Gloria Hamm served in her last meeting as Lehigh County Commissioner on Wednesday night. She was defeated in a Republican sweep of Comissioner seats in November. Instead of speaking about herself, she made a plea for human services. "I just hope that the next person in charge of Human Services is as passionate and concerned about the topics in Human Service, and makes an effort to see that that part of the population - which is currently underserved - will at least be keeping their heads above water."

  1. Since she is the Chair of Human Services on the Commissioners, I would say the statement was extremely self-serving. Oh my god, can anyone care as much as me. Can anyone love as much as me. No, I am afraid no one will be as good at it as me!!

    Typical liberal claptrap. It existed before she was elected and will go on long after she is gone.

    Get over yourself.

  3. I see one comment before yours, and no derisive mention is made of Gloria's oxygen tubes.

  4. I disagree with some of the stuff human services does. Her statement was self serving. But one cannot doubt her dedication. Thank you for your service, Gloria.

    Anon 12:51 Just prey that you never have a serious illness - but then you already do. It's call permanent dumb-ass.

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.
