Why even bring it up if it is personal?

Anyway, have you seen any of the GEICO caveman commercials?

Yes, love the Geico.

It's personal because it was about an elected official I'm particularly close to. He told major lies in a public meeting about things this elected official has supposedly said and done, stated that he had audio-tape evidence of it. Later, in private, he admitted he had no such evidence. Yet the public damage was done.

Disagree all you want...I don't give a rip about that...but don't lie. It's an integrity and character issue, imho.

Tell the public official to come clean as soon as possible.

People don't expect saints for public officials, but they want people they can trust.

I think she is alluding to distortions and lies told by a candidate for public office *about* a public official.

My mistake, I did not think it seemed right.

The Official should make his case to that person every time to issue comes up, until he apologizes publicly.

The attempt has been made, Thumper. The former candidate who said that now says he didn't say it, or that he didn't mean it the way it came out, yada yada.

Yeah...but he's really a former candidate due to this atrocious ideas propelling his campaign, not this integrity issue. And his ideas obviously didn't propel him very far. Praise the voters!

Why are you calling him (Ray Brown) names? He would have fixed the PUD and put an end to the cancer (Jim Eddy) that is slowly eating away at it.
