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.
Funny how this is always scheduled in the month before Election Day. It's almost like our politicians are using our tax money for some free publicity.
ReplyDeleteThis is only the second County Festival ever. The first one was on May 25, 2019. Was there an Election Day in June that year? Nice try, History Buff.

ReplyDeleteYou are correct, and I find it appalling that our current county executive (who is already pushing ethical boundaries by shaking down county employees, unions and vendors for campaign contributions) has chosen to politicize the event by moving the festival to just before the election in only its SECOND year of existence.

DeleteI'm almost always correct. Ask all my exes! Unbunch your panties, you drama queen. The festival was moved to October last year, because it conflicted with the Memorial Day weekend, as previously held in 2019. Then came Covid in 2020, which kiboshed everything. Simply rescheduled for the same October Saturday this year. Surely you can find something more substantive to be so appalled about. What a snowflake!
Wait!!!! A FESTIVAL!!!! Weren't you the one calling for people's head during musikfest because of covid and a super spreader event??? Yep pretty sure that was you.. But if Lamont and Chucky tell you it is ok it is ok. Hypocrites in this world.
ReplyDeleteMusikfest was during the height if the Delta variant and NorCo and LehCo were both at a high rate of infection. Moreover, people were not wearing masks. The infection rate has thankfully dropped, this event is outdoors and the county will be more willing to encourage masks. Having said that, I have no intention of going.
ReplyDeleteYou could ride your bike there, and give a plug for rails to trails. ����
