Scott notes what might or might not be happening in NJ this November.
I agree, it’s going to be interesting. Which way is the pendulum swinging now that people actually have gotten to know President Obama. And his ilk. And the left.
In my hometown – we too are going to be greeted with an election this November which will be telling for my little town. Last election our council swung far to the left. This election we could potentially swing right.
And just like the nation Longmont is a microcosm of what’s going on. People on the left decided that “civility” should be in order for everyone. (now that their man is in office anyway – please don’t ask them how civil Bush was treated)
They created an advisory board and even convince two people of the right to join in, just to keep this election here civil. Before even a second complaint could be read, the two on the right have realize what a big mistake they made. Civility for the left means not accusing anyone of anything. Even when it’s the truth.
Even if you’re a private citizen and want to share your views. If you have seen wrong doing of the left and you want to bring it up, the left will accuse you of being “uncivil”.
Nicolle Pratt-Unger and Russ Stacey resigned from the committee Thursday, saying it wasn’t functioning the way they had hoped and fearing that the direction it is heading will do more to keep people quiet than to keep candidates civil.
“I think it created more controversy and incivility than it cured,” Stacey said of reactions he has heard from the community.
Plus all the comments from the public acknowledging that what Longmont seems to really be doing is restricting free speech. Do we think there is a reason that was the FIRST Amendment?
