Governor Romney dismissed role of Amateur Radio Operators inEmergencies.
In article , Carter-k8vt wrote: jawod wrote: I am a Democrat. Even I can tell this is a smear job. Lots of operatives out there with their "eyes on the prize". Don't be misled by these emails. The gloves are off. Internet dispatches are ALL suspect. We are all sailing in rough seas. In the end, each of us can pick the candidate we are most comfortable with. 73, John AB8O John, I would respectfully beg to differ with you. This incident actually happened a couple of years ago, -long- before he threw is hat in the ring; no reason to 'smear' him back then... You wrote: You miss the point, the smear is NOW. No, 'You', I believe YOU miss the point. *Romney* said he did not like ham radio operators. Words from *his* own mouth. Period. Please tell me why -quoting- what HE ACTUALLY SAID is a smear...and if by some stretch of the imagination, you manage to twist a direct quote around as a being a smear, well then, Romney smeared himself. Finally, are we to give him a free pass just because he said it 'x' number of (years) (weeks) (days) ago? Why bring up comments that are two years OLD, NOW? Well, because he never retracted the statement. Presumably then, these are STILL his feelings towards hams. Again, does a negative statement he makes just 'time out' and shouldn't be quoted after a certain period of time even though he still stands by the statement? What period of time would you suggest that after which, we just ignore what he said? |
