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 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.
Great Guy, glad he chose NORCO to live in and to serve the people for so many years.
ReplyDeleteA good man. NC is blessed to have quite a few good County Judges.
ReplyDeleteA good man and Judges being politically independent has always made sense to me. We are blessed to have quite a few good County Judges.
ReplyDeleteThe statewide party rejected him several times and he's always had a lot of R and I support, locally. Not sure why now is the time. It certainly is the end of his ambitions beyond NorCo, and he's probably unconcerned about re-election in 9 years. I can see him moving to the greener pastures of private practice before his term ends. Despite his statements to the contrary, he sounded painfully bored when I heard him on a radio interview a few weeks ago.
ReplyDeleteJohn would have made a great congressman.
ReplyDeleteJudges should never have a political party. They shouldn't have a party moniker or any affiliation of a party on the ballot. We should be electing judges on the pure stance of them upholding the law in fair but firm manners. It's a joke we allow them to "cross file" and continue down the road of "not being politically motivated". Give me a break.
ReplyDeleteOk with me John. Just don’t send your assistant DA to crime scenes. That way they can’t excuses from representing the state.
ReplyDeleteHe’s been at Dino for years… He should’ve been really honest and just gone full Republican.
ReplyDeleteThe best D.A. NORCO ever had! Im a conservative Republican, voted for John every time! Great Guy!
ReplyDeleteMorganelli is very far from the Democratic socialist agenda. Good move on his part to disassociate from them. More democrats need to stand up to send the message to the DNC.
ReplyDeleteJohn is by far the best DA NORCO has ever had and He is probably regretting his decision to become a Judge due to how boring the position is....should have have continued as DA ..sorry to see You go
ReplyDeleteThis just drives home the point that:
ReplyDeleteDecent People Don't Vote Democrat Anymore...
I wish they would open up the primaries for everyone to vote. The person most right or left ends up getting in and they are so partisan it has contributed to the great divide in the country.
ReplyDeleteI've always liked Morganelli, and am Glad he's changed his affiliation. I think being a Democrat these days is a real negative...Especially with the Anti Police garbage that's going on throughout the country.
ReplyDeleteJohn , I’m your friend. I’m a hard R I believe in your integrity.
ReplyDeleteA hard look at him brings questions. Was political corruption and cronyism condoned? Is his tip staff is a retired police officer who rose questionably? How were drunk, addicted, court determined not credible person(s) allowed to become and remain on the drug task force run by the district attorney? How many criminal law enforcement officials and criminal politicians in Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton, Nazareth and the Slate Belt received a wrist slap or outright “opinion” they were not guilty when the courts found them guilty? How many relatives and friends have obtained “crushy” government jobs, reduced or suppressed criminal investigations and/or prosecutions? Was there a going political contribution to get a job as an assistant ADA? $10,000 question. Don’t get angry with the post. Simply check public records for starters.
ReplyDeleteJohn Morganelli lost me when he ran for judge. I believe he will be forced to retire before his term expires, which leads me to believe this is just an ego boost for him. His now-deleted FB post condemning the police officers in the George Floyd incident showed either a lack of judgment or disregard of his position.
ReplyDelete10:33 am, I wouldn’t have a clue how to research your post, but you have piqued my interest.
