Ok, Real Liberal Boulder has another post up lying about me. Or I assume about me as he/she/it is upset about a David Thielin - I'm David Thielen. But spelling has never been one of RLB's strengths (nor has logic, clarity, or the facts).
First off, I am not a Republican. I have been a registered Democrat since age 18 when I first registered. And while I have donated to numerous Democratic candidates (including John Edwards and Barack Obama), the only two Republicans I can recall ever donating to are Al White and my mom.
Second, I am a committed Obama delegate. I gave my word in my caucus that I will vote for Obama and I will do so. I have also been a strong advocate for him on numerous blogs, have donated to his campaign, and dropped off snacks at the Boulder Obama headquarters two mornings in the run up to the caucuses here.
Third, as to RLB's comments about Suzy Ageton, Suzy is the one member with nothing to be embarrassed about. She stood up to do the right thing and, in cases like this where doing the right thing is unpopular, she showed very admirable qualities. The fact that the rest of the council-members ran away from this issue does not make Suzy wrong. And Suzy is not alone, there are many many people in Boulder that think Crystal should resign.
Finally, it's easy to cast wild accusations from behind a cloak of anonymity. I have a question for RLB - do you believe in your own statements enough that you are willing to put your name to them? (Your unwillingness to face people is amply demonstrated in that you turned off comments on your blog when the initial comments were almost entirely negative towards your posts.)
At present, RLB remains a mouthpiece parroting the viewpoint of the powers that be here in Boulder. Illiberal, intolerant, petty, and engaging in ad-homium attacks while avoiding the issues.
