Tonio,

I was mostly referring to the statement that it was "weird hearing that the Enterprise is lefty" and anti-business. When you read the editorials written by the publisher, the Enterprise is extremely anti-business. But, they're the only game in town, so businesses must advertise with them. The Osama and child molesters I would tend to agree with, and you could throw rapists in there as well. There was another thread where, in my opinion, I thought you had made some radical statements about zoning, strip malls, I don't recall exactly, and I can't find my contribution to that thread either. We're talking probably 4-6 months ago. And, your statement that you're not affiliated with either party. Like it or not, we live in a society that is a 2-party system. It's still America, so you can do what you want but the 2 party system is still reality. I am registered as a Democrat, and if you looked at my voting record, you would think I'm a Republican. But, that's the way you did it in St. Mary's county when I registered because the major races were decided in the primary and the Republicans rarely fielded a full ticket. That changed in a big way in 1990. So that is the basis for my "jab" and I apologize for that.

Forgot to mention the "all deputies should be replaced" comment you made? And for the record, I don't agree with that statement, and I don't think a statement like that is based in reality.

Politically, I would probably best fall under a Libertarian point of view, being fiscally conservative but wanting to keep government out of our personal lives. Realistically, true Democrats wouldn't have me because I don't believe in redistribution of wealth, and Republicans wouldn't have me because I don't think abortion belongs on a party platform. (So I guess I can never run for office!) But since we're in a 2-party system, I picked one (for the reason above) and registered.

And now, back to the Sheriff's race... Paging David Zylak...
