On My Mind

Just got this sent. I heard this going around and to be honest it is horrible. Vote for the best person.

Nice work Phil.  About time.

Thank you Phil Jacobs.  It’s about time someone stepped up.  And forget the innuendo.  Billy Chase and Mel Mintz are running around saying we are traitors to our faith if we don’t vote for someone who is jewish.  If someone said that about us, can you imagine the outrage?  Apparently, Ben Cardin has no right to be a U.S. Senator since our state is not a jewish state.  And I happen to think Ben Cardin is fantastic.  Shame, shame, shame.  Any candidate who subscribes to this should be ashamed.  Thank you Phil Jacobs.

Phil,
    Your editorial is right on the mark.  The campaign going on in the 2nd by one of the candidates is simply ridiculous.  I have actually heard Ms. Becker telling people not to vote for certain candidates simply because they are not jewish.  It is truly disgusting.
    Our people have been on the front lines of the civil rights movement and have fought against discrimination everywhere.  Are we really going to allow someone to represent us who rejects the notion that we should vote for someone based on the content of their character and not on the color of their skin, their religion, or anything else of no importance in this process.
    I am not sure who I will be voting for in the coming election.  It certainly will not be for Sherrie Becker.  Her campaign has been truly disgusting and should be rejected by us all.  She has shown that she is not worthy of holding elected office.
    I appreciate the comments of Phil Jacobs.  The Jewish Times as a magazine should take a stand against this type of behavior.

Hey Phil,

Why don’t you do some real reporting.  Like disclose who is contributing hundreds of thousands of dollars to the 11th distict team and therby to Vicki Almond so they can control her for their development purposes.

Secondly I know you were all up in arms about Schmoke’s campaign for re election as Mayor by strictly appealing to african american voters.

Why don’t you report about the property at Reisterstown Rd and Mt Wilosn Lane in a space of about 300 linear feet there are NIME SIGNS WITH VICKY ALMOND ON THEM?

If you knew anythng about county government you would know that there is little a councilman can do to help the people out you so valiantly pointed out.

If you were to do these things maybe then you could be the “hero” you seek.
