Inteller,
OKC?? You do realize that Jim Inhofe and Randy Brogdon are both from Tulsa area?
OKC, as bad as it is still has a ways to go before it gets that bad.

I don’t share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently. I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Obviously he's a tool and is shamelessly pandering to the ones who will show up in droves to vote for him because their pastors will tell them to. Qualifications clearly mean nothing.
Which is obviously different than other organizations, like Unions, "encouraging" their members to vote a certain way. I think it's wrong on both sides. |

All I was talking about was balancing a checkbook. You've gone off on a tangent approaching 90 degrees.
Who's going off on the tangent? I'm asking the question as it regards to Scott's initial post. You remember? This image?  |

You response to me and asking me to explain pro-life/choice has nothing to do with my comment although it is relevant to the thread. At that level, I agree that pro-life/choice is irrelevant. |

Jim Jones was from the Tulsa area. Mike Synar was from Muskogee but (supposedly) represented parts of SE Tulsa and northern Bixby for a while. Pretty bad. Worse, in my opinion, than Inhofe. I'll agree on Brogdon. |

I never said it was different. I think it's pathetic no matter who is doing it. Last I checked we weren't discussing unions here. |

Hmm, are unions taxed? Churches aren't... Anyway, I would not vote for a person who uses the image of an infant in a cynical attempt to garner support. It's crass at best. At least at the national level, it has some bearing on possible future votes, so might be forgivable. In this case, he's just trying to manipulate. It's the lowest form of advertising, and it's what you do when you have nothing of substance to talk about instead. |

I'm still trying to figure out how being a "Tea Party Conservative" is relevant to the county treasurer post either. Ruth Hartje is really playing that angle up.

I agree. As much as she has made that a definition of who she is, it now becomes a real measuring stick about the amount of influence the Tulsa County Tea Party has. |

We are discussing county politics. Perhaps you believe unions have never tried to influence a county election. |

Hmm, can you leave a church if you don't like the preachin'? Hmm, can you quit the union (in a non-right to work state) without losing your income? Can your dues go to support someone you don't support? |

You must not know the same David Tackett I did...
You can honestly say you would vote for him? Really?
Same one. And yes, I know what you're talking about. |
