A non political post would have been more effective in selling the
concept.

Aren't you among the crowd normally critical of editing cut 'n paste
before posting?

Why do you insist on seeing the remark as a "slam" against Republicans?
Why so defensive?

Dave Kutz wrote a sentence that made two statements.

1) The opposition to the bill seemed to come from some Republicans
2) The opposing Republicans were not well informed about the provisions
of the bill.

How is that a "political" statement?


You conveniently left out the word *uninformed* in statement #1 and #2 and
there was no comment about the democrats voting against the bill being
*uninformed*.

Don't try to spin this Chuck. Your intention was quite evident.

I would have simply stated that the State Senate voted in a bill requiring
stricter boater education and posted a link showing the specifics of the
bill.

You didn't. You made it about partisan politics.

Looks like you hope to create a mountain out of a molehill on this
item.

Are you aching so badly to find some excuse to begin acting up again?

According to David Kutz, Chairman of the Washington Alliance for
Mandatory Boater Education and the author of the email, the politicians
opposing the bill were members of the Republican party who did not seem
to be informed about the bill's specifics.

If that creates a personal problem for you, that's regrettable but
probably unavoidable.

No need for the personal attack (#2 for you today along with one direct
insult). I simply stated an opinion.

End of discussion for me Chuck. I made my point.

For what it is worth, the bill was a bipartisan bill, sponsored by
Republicans and Democrats.

But I guess the Republicans were *uninformed*.

Old JimH must be really feeling his oats these days. He's just itching to
get even with you.
My two cents worth........take no prisoners & show no mercy. It just
empowers Jimbo.
