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.
So lets open this place up already!
ReplyDeleteThere is a troll who submits comments on almost every post I write, bashing McClure and me, too. Now since he is an elected official, he is fair game. So am I as a blogger. But I decline to host these comments because they obviously come from someone who is unhinged.
ReplyDelete9:22, It has to be tough for the families, I agree. I saw numerous comments on the county's Facebook post about Gracedale, praising the staff. McClure told me he wants to open the nursing home, but wants 14 clean days first.
ReplyDeleteno handshake how about an elbow bump - only if your wearing a mask
ReplyDeletePerhaps you have rose colored glasses when it comes to McClure.
ReplyDeleteI can be and have been highly critical when warranted. The simple reality is he has been very effective and that’s what really bothers you. The difference between Brown and McClure is the difference between night and day.
ReplyDeleteNobody in local or state government has any reason to be congratulated over this mess. 10% of Gracedale residents died. I won't be shaking anyone's hand for accomplishing that. I'll be voting them out of office before they harm anyone else.
ReplyDeleteI'd love a list of officials who ran out to march with BLM while deaths were going unattended and funerals either didn't happen or were sadly limited. One could march in NorCo, but not swing on swings. Think about that.
ReplyDeleteThe staff at gracedale deserve praise. The executive needs to stop and see that there are not enough staff and do something about that. Close the old building. Downsize and you may have enough staff. This will decrease mandating. And begging staff everyday to work more hours. Causing turnover. Plus we are all paying the overtime and pensions based on overtime with our taxes. And lastly the building is old and not a dignified homelike environment. You spoke about long term planning. Where is the executive on that for gracedale
ReplyDeleteP
Right with you 1:29 PM. Brown was bad but so is McClure. At least people didn't die other than natural causes under his reign.
ReplyDelete6:32 - These days, people who die in hospitals and nursing homes of natural causes are frequently labeled as victims of COVID-19. Yes, it’s true.
