Elect White, Mason and Mason to council

  Elect White, Mason and Mason to council
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2011


What if the Web had existed when our Founding Fathers drafted the Declaration of Independence and talk of it was nothing more than ranting on a blog? Would the signers of this document have been patriots or cowards hiding behind the cloak of anonymity? Would the 13 colonies have united behind the likes of “CapeFear,” Pater, ReAliasso, citizenofcv, aviary, pandora’sboxofrocks or jefferson’sLeaningLeft?

The 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence were patriots because, even though they knew that affixing their signatures to this Declaration was tantamount to signing their own death warrants, they signed it.

Stand up for what you believe and quit being a coward. Lack of courage speaks directly of one’s moral fiber and integrity as a human being. If you feel you must say it, sign it. If you cannot, don’t put it out there for publication.

When posting on the blogs, be cautious of that which you choose to air and whose lives and families you are intent on destroying. Headline dated Aug. 12, 2010, in the Post-Gazette, Pittsburgh, Pa.: “Judge Orders Identities of Commenters Be Revealed!”


Anonymous bloggers, beware as you may not be as anonymous as you think.

Could your identity be revealed in the same manner? Should the anonymous commenter be concerned? Perhaps, but who would want your identify revealed and for what purpose?

The Republican candidates who won the recent primary election must be very grateful to the blogs and WPEG.

Had it not been for these groups working closely together, the lives of the other candidates and their families could not have been more maliciously and purposely destroyed.

Is this apparent lack of integrity of their supporters a direct reflection of the integrity of the Republican candidates themselves?

Harvey White, Donald Mason and Marty Mason are well aware of what our local blogs are capable of.

Over the past several years, they and their families have endured an onslaught of personal attacks which can best be categorized as vicious and vulgar. Visit the blogs referenced above, and you will see what is really going on in Cape Vincent.

Please vote Election Day. Vote Conservative for Harvey White, supervisor of the town of Cape Vincent, and re-elect Marty Mason and Donald Mason town councilmen.
