I think those who voted to put Irons in elected office as their representative have a right to know that they elected someone who refuses to participate in an expression of unity around our American ideals.
A reader has sent me a photo of Irons refusing to participate from the June 25 meeting, and I thought I'd share it with you.
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.
A shameful display by a very self-centered individual. A man who should be ignored by all who come into contact with him. Label this person a loser.

ReplyDeleteThe welfare gang will still vote for him as they wave other flags
ReplyDeleteIt's protected form of expression; one cannot be compelled to say something. If he has a beef, so be it. He can express such in any manner he chooses. However, as an elected official who took an oath, he should at least stand. He doesn't even have to recite the Pledge. Not standing for the Pledge (if you are physically able) is really a lack of courtesy and professionalism. One looks more like a baby throwing a tantrum than a civilized adult airing a grievance.
ReplyDeleteWho gives a shit if he doesn't participate in some patriotic circle jerk. How does he vote, what is he doing for his constituents. That's all that should matter.
ReplyDeleteSend him out with the protesters , BUT DON'T MISS
DeleteThis guy doesn’t bother me at all.
ReplyDeleteAs far as I’m concerned, he’s the most genuine and honest Democrat in the Lehighvalley.
Well said Jon
DeleteHe should never be voted into office again to represent people of this country.
