  • "Amen to that! We have enough partisan BS in politics at the national level. It never used to be partisan at the county level, and it shouldn't be now. They want you to reduce everything and everyone to left or right, R or D. It makes great news copy to pitch this as a giant left vs right battle, but that's part of the problem. Just listen to the candidates and stop trying to place everyone into two buckets! "

  • "Yes I'm familiar with Schwartz,Gurnee and Settle but the big difference between the past Cal Poly associated people and the present ones is night and day in my opinion. Those three men didn't let Cal Poly ruin neighborhoods as they are now,as the current mayor and her counsel.And yes I realize that there is a college in this town,actually there's two colleges but San Luis doesn't draw people here because it's a college town to live,raise a family, its a great area to live. I don't think it's too much to ask that your neighbors to try be respectful of others."

  • "I agree totally! And I think there are two candidates who would exactly fit that description. They are both unaffiliated to a party and therefore not burdened by the mechanisms and influences of either "side". I look forward to learning more about them and how they would help to shape our communities to better serve the needs of our people and protect our precious, world class natural environment."

  • "There's a wiki page on politicians who have been assassinated in America: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assassinated_American_politicians I was not able to get through all of them, but it was an interesting read. Quite a few of the perpetrators were young, many in their 20's, and male. Much of it seemed oddly reminiscent of "gang" activity, and it covered all political sides, even anarchists, go figure."

  • "Bob has gotten it right. His concepts and expressions are sound, but those jumping in with the pitchforks and torches are the reason good people from all sides are not free to express themselves. It becomes shrill, personal, and vitriolic. Thank you, Bob, for your wisdom and courage to speak out against a cancer that is real and threatening our democracy, the ability to opine freely. You're a good man."

  • "Exactly. Kinda like Pismo Beach is going to inject their poop water into the ground water table in Grover Beach. It's gonna get piped from the treatment facility by the ball fields in Pismo to Grover, treated more, and then injected into the ground. The Blue project failed, so Pismo is moving forward on their own. Grover city council played dumb last month, but we now know they were fully aware and supportive. The property lies between Huber Street and 4th Street north of Calvin Court. This is right beside the new homeless rehab 'camp' they set up right beside Toyworx Automotive. How many recovering drug addicts are gonna stay in a transition facility with that stink and noise next door? Why on earth would Grover Beach city council buy off on injecting Pismo poop water into the ground under Grover?? Like the Nipomo neighbors, area property values will be in the crapper shortly."

  • "I can remember a time in this county that the Board of Supervisors was a non-partisan office. There were no donkeys or elephants involved. In fact, the state constitution still explicitly lists the job as without party affiliation, yet that’s what we’re most concerned about. We have to know which side of the aisle a politician comes from in order to vote. Used to be we simply chose the right person for the job. We respected each other enough not to be swayed by labels. Today, it’s simply Democrat=good, Republican=bad or vice versa, without ever considering the character and strengths of the candidate. My old supervisor, Paul Teixeira, who unfortunately died in office, was a conservative, but I always felt he was fair and I campaigned for him. I believed he would do what was right for the county. I guess that’s why I have been impressed with Heather Moreno lately. I guess she is a Republican, but she doesn’t seem to be as overt about it as her predecessor was. And while I often agree with Gibson on the issues, he has been way too partisan and I think Paulding would do well to step away from that and exert some independence. Now, I have no idea about these candidates. I’m old and rarely get out anymore so I have no recommendations. All I know is that voters should actually listen to what the candidate says rather than look to see if they have a D or an R after their name."

  • "Democrats sought an impeachment, and removal from office, on a fairy tale of made up lies about Russia. So, yeah. Gestapo. Remember Hunter's laptop? "That's not his! Well, it is his, but there is nothing incriminating on it. Well, yeah all that is incriminating, but he never said or did any of that. Well, yeah, he did say and do that, but you just heard it all wrong and we're right!" So, yeah. Gestapo."

  • "No they wouldn't. Calling SLOPD regarding the homeless is a waste of your and their time, and they make that very clear. The police cannot prove anything and they know it. I can deal and reason with the students. They are generally not drug-addicted and mentally ill and do not check every car door every night I'll swap out the homeless for students any day."
