Sunshine please take a Xanex before you have a stroke!

First off it doesn't matter how I answer your question because you aren't going to believe me anyways.

Second here is a lesson in Politics for you: When voting in a primary you either ask for a democrat ballot or a republican ballot. Nobody knows which candidate you vote for but the local party knows which ballot you ask for. Therefore if someone claims to be a Republican in a letter to the editor and that person has asked for the democrat ballot in the last several primaries then I wouldn't give much credence to anything else they have to say because that, too, might be a lie.

I never used the phrase "true Republican" to describe the writer nor did I demonize her for not following lockstep with the party platform. I have an opinion that she is not what she claims to be. One thing I know is that NONE of my friends and family who are republicans want more government control and NOT ONE OF THEM would vote for ANYBODY that voted for emminent domain laws like Welch.

I think you need to spend less time worrying about me anwering your silly little question and more time trying to figure out why on earth you can't decide between Mourdock and Donnelly. For the love of all that is holy! Donnelly supports everything Obummer believes in. If you are voting for Romney how can you not support Mourdock whom Romney endorses and who promised to repeal ObummerCare?!

Rokita: I've read literature not impressed with the Dem or Lib .

Satisfied?

Now Yes or No??



Answer: NO
I cannot be satisfied with anyone that basis their vote merely by reading literature.

The dialogue here has been going in circles for too long, with no new information.
Pewrhaps the warring parties ought to agree to disagree until some more substantive information becomes available.

NBI,

I'm not letting it go...

Rat,

Nice try but wrong question. Now for the 7th time. Would you offer the same political analysis if the roles of the clean campaign signing were reversed? Again... To be abundantly clear, would you give Mrs. Mayfield the same criticisms if it was her idea, and Mrs. Welch refused to sign? You stated. Theory that Mrs. Welch was doing it as a ploy..

I'm addressing your bias toward your candidate. That's why you conjured things up. If the roles were reversed you'd simply give Mrs. Welch flak for not signing it. She is darned if she does and darned if she doesn't with you!!


Yes or No?


And um... Reading the websites, studying their political doctrine can be enough for me if it disagrees with my deep personal convictions!

Sunny, I'll straight up tell you my bias is in favor of Peggy Mayfield.

14 years in office alone is enough for me to vote someone out, not matter what they have done, good or bad.

Leaving her post and going out of state when she was on the job is another. Nuff said on that.

One last thing, thanks for moving out of Martinsville I appreciate it.

Danny Stewart,

I'll straight up tell you that we already have term limits...It's called an "Election". I suppose if someone (anyone) has done a bang up job for 14 years and his/her opponent is a buffoon we just simply vote for the latter!

If a test has "Circle One, Yes or Purple" as an answer... you just circled purple.

Going out of state to prevent legislation that is UN-AMERICAN and outrageous in my opinion is standing up for what is right!

Side Note: This is what happens with partisan politics. The Republicans that sided with the Dems on the issues that brought about that drastic action was threatened at every political level. I believe they were called "Lunch Pale" republicans.

One last thing, I didn't know I moved! If you would also be kind enough to let me know my new address I can go to the post office this morning and fill out a "Change of Address" form!

Any Bigfoot sightings while on your paper route?

Sunny,
I believe Danny is refering to the list of candidates you said you are voting for. You mentioned Rokita and not Young. We were all under the impression you were from Martinsville. Young represents Martinsville while Rokita covers Mooresville. So either you never lived in Martinsville, you moved to Mooresville or the only other possibility is you aren't as politically savvy as you think since you don't even know who you are supposed to be voting for. So which is it?

Since you won't answer the question I will assume that either my third scenario was correct (ROFL!) or you reside in the Alzheimers unit at one of the county elder care facilities (Not ROFL). Either way, Sunny, your credibility is now in the toilet with the Tidybowl Man.

Ratcatcher,

Unlike you, I don't bounce and am willing to admit when I am wrong. I've been busted, and therefore in my ignorance I bow out. Yep, finally after all this time you trumped me on something.

Take care.
