Robert:

Just a few comments on the David Miller advertisement concerning a city employee setting a gun on a table during a job review. This may have been already hashed out by listeners and callers while I was working but wanted to pitch my two cents in also.

This is the exact type of advertisement that has turned the American public off of politics. The ad is too close to the election and in this case during early voting, for the average person to conduct their own research to corroborate or refute the allegations. The ad is very short on details that would allow the average person to even try to find anything out if their was time until election day, granted names etc would probably open up the possibility for libel and slander suits.

The last point is that for someone who claims to be a Christian, this is a very unchristian way to conduct a campaign in my opinion.

I know this is only going to be read by the choir but I wanted to get it off my mind.

Thanks,
John M.
