Who has time to read 390 comments???

Dan McCaleb wins the prize! Dan is with the Northwest Herald and wrote an editorial today about the "incivility" shown to a League of Women Voters' (LWV) moderator who did not want the audience to say the Pledge of Allegiance. That fiasco occurred at the LWV forum where Melissa Bean actually showed up to face off with Joe Walsh and Bill Scheurer last week.

As of 8:53PM there were 390 comments to Dan's editorial, which takes the audience to task for over-riding LWV moderator Kathy Tate-Bradish's "excuse" that the Pledge was not on her agenda.

Well, Dan, be sure to show up at the LWV forum at MCC Monday night, 7:00PM. The first part of the "show" is the forum for candidates for Sheriff. What better event could there be to start off with the Pledge of Allegiance. The Sheriff of the County must pledge his allegiance to the Flag and to the Republic for which it stands. I don't mean Keith; I mean any Sheriff. Every Sheriff!

If tomorrow night's agenda doesn't include the Pledge, then the moderator can plan on a 1-minute delay, and the audience won't want to hear any snide remarks about disrespect.
