[Vision2020] A Consideration . . .

[Tom Hansen]

On Thursday (April 26th) Donovan Arnold "jokingly" suggested, at nobody's expense but my own:

"Mr. Hansen,

By registering as an Idaho Republican you are being deceitful to others, dishonest in your true convictions as a person, and you greatly undermined your personal integrity; An important first step in becoming a true Idaho Republican."

The reason I registered to vote in this year's primary election was NOT to deceive!!!  My intentions are honorable and community-oriented.

For those of you with short attention spans (Donovan Arnold and Vera White), my reason for registering as a Republican were strongly suggested in an earlier posting to Vision2020:

If your intent was to ridicule the Republican Party, a short off-list comment addressed to me would have been appropriate.  That's what big boys and girls would do.

I, and my wife, have registered to vote in the May 15th primary election as Republicans to vote for Tom Trail.  The alternative is just, plain scary.

If you find humor in that, your minds are shallower than previously considered.

With that said . . .

My conscience rests.
