Before you berate a canidate you cannot quote yourself without spewing indecencies, maybe you should at least read his platform. “He’s a mean man” does not in any way shape or form sum up the kind of man Jonathan Narcisse is or will be once the election is over. Whether or not he is elected is to be determined, however until you can become involved in something larger than getting angry over what could possibly be a misunderstanding; understand that what he has done so far may be far quieter yet much more impressive than some.

An open Letter to “{PHAmacieial Guy23″

I don’t know where you got my email and I don’t want any of your Viagra.

My point is, it is email, if you don’t want it, don’t read it. Jon did not show up at your front door, force himself in and read you an open letter for BVP. Maybe we all have a little growing up to do.

An update: I had a Facebook chat with Craig Robinson. He will notify me when he starts covering the House races and will consider content that I submit. As with other news outlets, I don’t mind what their editorial policy is as long as its applied evenly.

No problem. The whole situation is a load of crap. They are giving Narcisse not one but two spots on the front page, not to mention highlighting him ripping on a GOP gubernatorial candidate. If they want to give Narcisse this much press not even caring what party he belongs to or if he will be an Independent or whatever, then you deserve the same, if not more, face time on a Republican site.

To Iowans Rock,

Thanks for pointing out the editorial bias at Iowa Republican. I have sent several press releases — not a mention!

Iowans Rock:

For ten years Bob Vander Plaats has been running for Governor. I have nothing personal against him but he doesn’t have a plan.

What he does have, if you go to his website, are ideas that, if examined closely will either require high taxes to pay for them or significant debt.

This is not the vision of the “conservative champion” he has identified himself as.

Now I am willing to meet with Bob anywhere, anytime to back up what I said. Period.

Moreover, his supporters don’t get a free pass. In the past, to many of us, including myself, have supported candidates we liked without vetting them. We cannot continue to do this.

Bob is the G.O.P. frontrunner. He owes Iowans a plan. In the absence of one criticism is valid. There was nothing untrue in the email. There was nothing personal in the email.

Finally, regarding your email address, from time to time I get addresses sent to me. I am asked to send information to persons. I get email addresses from our website of those that have examined it so we can keep them informed.

If you send me your address I will delete it from our database. It’s that simple. But I do not apologize for calling out a man who would be the leader of our state but has no plan.

My number is 515-770-1218. I am more than willing to engage in any constructive dialogue.

That was one mean and ugly letter that Narcisse must have written with a wicked pen. I won’t be listening to anything that man says on the radio, at a debate, anywhere. I can now see why the school board must have had one big celebration when he was off the board.

What a grumpy, mean man.

It seems that in politics especially…people are most ignorant about anti-spam or even “general email protocol”. I don’t recall checking a “I’m willing to be marketed to” box when I have email exchanges with people. Nor do I recall signing a waiver that exchanges of business cards mean that I want someone’s newsletter. My comments aren’t direct at JN necessarily but the state of political email hackery in general. Campaigns just recycle lists from cycle to cycle when that behavior would be considered serious spam offense elsewhere. Back to my open letter to myself.
