Started to call this one, "Sometimes you vote against people because of the company they keep" but that would be too nice.
Received a piece of garbage disguised as a political mailer Friday from someone named Terry Lowry. Never heard of him, which should prove I'm not a political insider. Seems he's pretty popular on the "conservative" front, receiving tons of cash from well known "conservatives. The Harris County Republican Party has given him a ton of money over the years.
There are four candidates that paid for full page ads in this 12 page, full size mailer. They are Bill Moore, Fred Roberts, Pat Lykos and Holly Williamson. In effect, they are paying for the endorsment of this puke named Terry Lowry.
Now, anyone that tells you that they study all of the candidates and vote for the best choice is trying to deceive you or themselves. No one, I repeat, no one could possibly do that for each candidate. On their own.
We rely on trusted friends and organizations to steer us in the right direction. Sure, for the important races, we do our own research. Important may be the JP to someone, who knows. But, again, for the rest, we rely on others.
But there isn't always someone we can rely upon to help us. For instance, I don't have anyone that can tell me the difference between Bill Moore and his opponent. Or Holly Wiliamson and hers. Lykos? I can do that myself, after being guided by someone I trust very much. Roberts? Not on my ballot, so no need to bother.
Why am I writing this? To say that I'm voting against Moore and Williamson. Voting for Lykos' opponent was easy, Kelly Siegler is just plain the better choice. But I could never vote for her anyway because she joined those in funding this piece of slander.
What the heck am I talking about? It's called the Link Letter and comes complete with recommendations for the four candidates that funded it with full page ads. For maximum effect, you need to listen to this short segment that I cut from an interview that Terry Lowry did with Pat Lykos in January of this year.
Did you catch what he said?
We can't be rumor mongers. My bible says gossipers will go to hell.
Pat Lykos answers that certainly she will not party to gossip and rumor. And yet, this is what I received in my mailbox, straight from this puke.
Kelly Siegler - Curses like a drunken sailor, and can drink most under the table. Did not have an affair with one, but choose to have an affair with a fellow district attorney. Her husband sent pornography to Chuck Rosenthal while she states "boys will be boys", We do not need more scandals in the DAis office.
Richard Risinger - Did he marry his long time live-in companion out of love just before the election, or did he know evangelical, conservatives would never vote for a candidate co-habitating with his paramour?
What trash. So I won't be voting for the garbage that paid for this trash. I'll be voting for their opponents.
As for Mr. Lowry, I'd suggest that he be very careful judging others and talking about his bible.
Matthew 7:1-5 “Do not judge so that you will not be judged. For by the standard you judge you will be judged, and the measure you use will be the measure you receive. Why do you see the speck in your brother’s eye, but fail to see the beam of wood in your own? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye,’ while there is a beam in your own? You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
