Re: County: lack of outreach on e-voting issues

[Paul Tiger <tigerp@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

ya think that I should have sent this to Doug as private? No. it was 
public for a reason.

Some people here have been attacking the advisory committee and the 
folks at the county openly. I keep hearing how they are NOT CITIZENS. 
The people seated on both sides of me today were polling judges, but 
someone in the room later told me that I was sitting between two town 
clerks. Your facts about who has been serving on this committe suck.

Since when do people that work in government suddenly lose their 
citizenship or ability to have brain functions, because they do? 
Everyone there was concerned about the issues. Most were not government 
lackies as has been repeatedly proported.
I guess I must be a government lackie as well. I have no ability to 
think independently, just like all the others. Only members of this 
group know what is best, and everyone else is an imbicile.

So Doug is involved. That's nice. So what? Why bash people that are 
actually working hard to make elections happen. They've worked a hell of 
a lot harder than you or I and you bash them.

And you point in bashing them would be ... to make you feel better about 
yourself. Go fish!
