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.
McClueless is still clueless. Even when he shows up. If he runs fro executive even Brown wins. Good riddance.
ReplyDeleteAnd good riddance.
ReplyDeleteThanks to both McClure and Parsons for your support and reasoning throughout ur tenure. You will be missed. Best wishes in the future!
ReplyDeleteSince Parsons never vacated his seat at DEITZI'S he is welcomed back with open arms. Merry Xmas Mr. Parsons from your friends in the republican party who used you to oust Ron Angle.
ReplyDeleteDistrict 4 “Heavily Republican”? Hah! There are fewer than 200 more registered Republicans than registered Democrats in District 4. That’s “Barely Republican” and likely to shift to Democrat next month.
ReplyDeleteI believe it to be fairly heavily R, but am willing to be educated.
ReplyDeleteWhen I look at these comments, ibis really hard to miss the negative tone at all but one comment. I think people who do that just make themselves look bad.
ReplyDeleteI hope I'm not included in the negative tone. I was just amused by the characterization of Council District 4 as heavily Republican. It's not and has not been. This year is the first in recent history and probably forever that Republicans actually outnumber Democrats in any Council District.
ReplyDeleteIt is true District 4 tends to vote Republican. In 2015, 821 more Republicans than Democrats voted in District 4.
I did include you, but am wrong. You were not being negative, but it gets hard sometimes after seeing so much negativity in other comments. My impression is that District 4 is heavily R, at least in municipal races. I do not have a breakdown by party that you just mentioned. Where did you get that? I'd like to check into it unless it is privileged information. The official results do not contain a party breakdown. At the polls, we do not ask what party in the general.
ReplyDeleteBernie by results, the only thing that really matters, District four votes heavily republican. Whether the democrats vote for republicans or many democrats don't bother to vote, it doesn't matter. The end result is that for years in county races district four goes republican.
ReplyDeleteParsons was a good enough guy who showed up and worked hard. I like guys I can talk to across a bar stool. The more he got slammed on being at Dietzi's, the more I like him. McClure represented the very worst of local politics. His loss is addition by subtraction. May we never see his ilk again.
ReplyDeleteMcClure didn't lose, what are you talking about? Do you even vote?
ReplyDeleteHis loss from council, as in no longer being there. And yes, I've never missed voting, and enthusiastically voted against McClure every time I had the opportunity.
ReplyDeleteWonder if Barney Rubble will run for CE in 2017?
ReplyDeleteYour silence on the Islamic Terrorist Attack in San Bernardino, California, is deafening, BO.
ReplyDelete7:56. You are such an ass
ReplyDeleteWhat did McClure ever accomplish?
ReplyDelete1) Author of the gaming authority ordinance, which was no easy feat. That authority is fnctioning pretty well.
ReplyDelete2) Forceful advocate for keeping Gracedale county-owned.
3) Assumed watchdog role that Angle held, although from a differing perspective.
4) Added some intelligence to a board that sometimes appears to be woefully lacking in that department.
"Wonder if Barney Rubble will run for CE in 2017?"
ReplyDeleteI don't know, Charles "Don't call me Charlie" Dertinger. Do tell.
I think O'Hare is taking on the McClure defense. Could it be the McClure connection to mancrush Mr. Morganelli?
ReplyDeleteYou hammered McCluess for years, no one will buy this reversal as easily as some of your past reversals. The guy is a slug who didn't run for reelection because he would have been beaten big-time. Of the five people running as Dem's for CE in 2017 he may place third.
5 people? Running for CE, do tell
ReplyDeleteI did Hammer McClure for years, and have admired Morganelli for years. My thinking about McClure has nothing to do with Morganelli. It changed when Lamont became a Council watchdog, started standing up for County workers and stood up to Brown. It's just that simple.
ReplyDeleteIt changed when McClure was no longer watching Stoffa a Bernier mancrush and started watching Brown whom Bernie hates. Pay attention people it is not that hard to understand.
ReplyDeleteFirst, you claim I stopped hammering MCClure bc of Morganelli. Now it is Stoffa.the reality is exactly what I said. I think I'm a better judge of what I do and why than some anonymous coward.
ReplyDeleteGood point anonymous 2:41, and by the way anonymous, 9:04 do ur homwork, it's DETZI'S! It's the political hotbed stop in the slatebelt for all politicans! Ask any politican, they will tell u.
ReplyDeleteAnd ask Bernie, he will tell u too!
