Open Comment — Olympic edition!!
Up for a little fencing? Ready to dive in? How about a sprint to the finish?
Politics, at least its verbage, has a lot in common with sports — beyond the fact that the hallowed 2 weeks every four years known as the Summer Olympics coincides with our presidential election cycle.
Whatever. While taking a break of today’s TV recaps or live coverage, or after taking in today’s uncharacteristic coolness for an August Sunday, make a pit stop here at Political Fix for Open Comment time.
What’s your best event? Telling us what we missed covering, promoting your favorite candidate, or venting over current issues?
As usual, keep your comments civil, concise and focused on regional/local matters.
There’s no medals or scoring involved, but you still can achieve a slam dunk!
On your mark. Get set. Go!!


BobZ - why on earth do you want to give a double gold medal to Kevin Horrigan and for what? The least researched editorials and commentaries in the country?
The U.S. have sent envoys into the Georgia - Russia war.
Is this how the U.S. and Israel have planned to distract Russia so that Israel can feel secure in there plan to bomb Iran? You have better believe that this is what is stirring. All very well planned, but plans don’t always succeed as planned.
None of these involved are good,and may the most evil win! That will be the outcome here. I did not see that it would happen this way, but knew it was coming,not knowing exactly when.

I know what the requirements are to get it on the ballot. And I see your point about manpower. However, I just think there is so much to be gained by hitting all congressional districts. This is your initial chance to get the word out about your proposition. There is nothing that will vote down your initiative faster than lack of voter education–so start early. In addition, some voters might take pride in the fact they helped get it on the ballot–and possibly push their friends, families, and neighbors to support the measure.
The man in the XXX-Large blue shirt can’t eat the Medals, can he? If so, let’s give him four so he’ll lay off the donuts for awhile.
Guess which editorial writer — a real paragon of free speech & free thought — has banned me from The Platform?

“None of these involved are good…” — D. Walker
Which countries are you referring to by “these” … ? Georgia, Russia, Isreal, U.S., Iran?
Shake your crystal ball again and clarify what you mean to say.
