Third Response

Looks like was too good to be true

I have spoken to the person who replied to your friend. I must have read your email a bit too quickly, because I thought the email came from you rather than your friend. According to our operations manager, your friend's email was filled with foul language and verbal abuse.

I have to stand behind our operations manager. We are not required to endure such abuse in exchange for votes. We won't say anything to make you happy and then turn around and ignore you like other political candidates. I assure you that Kinky is the only candidate in this race who may actually bring something new, honest and refreshing to the table. Something that's sorely lacking.

Thank you,
Laura

And my response (referring back to her first response as well)

Yes, the original e-mail was filled with foul language, I agree with you
on that. The proper response in that case, would simply have been
deletion. It's far simpler (and less likely to rebound) to simply click
delete, especially if Mr. Jordan is as busy as he claims.

Ms Stomberg, I have a question for you. Inconvenient truths are often
couched in rude and profane language. You don't know someone, say
within the past 10 years, who has done the same, made a career out of
it and is using the experience and notoriety to, oh, hypothetically,
run for governor?

And through all this, I notice that the original concern still remains
unadressed. How is it fair to put more on a group that is already
overburdened with more than it's fair share of costs? How is it
Constitutional, providing Equal Protection? How does it not violate
Federal laws banning discrimination on family status? So far all I see
is a candidate that parades "For the Children" as a banner, slams a
group that is usually politically easy to slam, and doesn't give a
second thought to the Constitutionality or fairness of proposals.
Sounds like the average politican to me, just one with a more colorful
background.

Bravo!!!
My husband I and live in Fort Worth and are child-free. We too wholly supported and encouraged Mr. Friedman--until this revelation. Our support of Mr. Friedman is now completely rescinded and we fully intend to share our reasons why with any and all who will listen.
Frankly, we now see no difference between Mr. Friedman and every other politician. Except professional politicians have their "spin" people phrase feedback a bit more politely than that idiot John Jordan.

Please, e-mail them and tell them why they lost your vote.

The CF are going to continue to be dumped on unless we speak out.
