I do not
believe I was attempting to justify Mr. Eiland’s vote.
I was merely asking that J.B. Jones look at the forest instead
of one leaf on the tree. In other words, while you may
not agree with his vote on this issue there are other votes
that he has made that you agree with. Look at the
overall picture and what he has done for the area he
represents. Not just one vote. That’s all I was
saying. I certainly believe that everyone is entitled to
their opinions. I do not attempt to stifle the free flow
of thought and discussion.
I agree
with JB Jones saying that "Free government requires
ACTIVE citizens.” I have always tried to be active in
the workings of city, county, state and national government. I
am very familiar with the various surrounding representative
districts as well as the voting records of them. I
believe in free government and I am an Active citizen.
Does that mean I know more that anyone living on the
Island
? Of course not. I would never make such a
dramatic statement.
While I do
not live in Rep. Eiland’s area I do not believe that I
attempted in any fashion to mask where I live. I am
quite proud of where I live. I do know Rep. Eiland and I
will state once again for the record I know him to be a great,
honest and forthright individual.
I am
familiar with his voting record and can say with out
reservation that I believe he has done a great job in the
representation of his constituency.
One last
thought. If you allow one issue to block the road how do
you expect to get anywhere?
