Last Tuesday, I posted on Facebook, “I asked Assemblywoman Michele Fiore AD 4 if she has changed her position on Cliven Bundy’s supposed ‘racial’ comments. Earlier she posted “I strongly disagree with Cliven Bundy’s comments about slavery,” before the full video of his statement was released, thus distancing herself from him. My question has been yanked from her FB page by her or someone affiliated with her. Hmm…”
A couple of hours later, when I checked her campaign page again, I was surprised to see my comment had reappeared. So I wrote a follow-up post on Facebook: “Well — dammit — I have to eat crow because while it was there, then wasn’t, my comment and question has reappeared on Assemblywoman Michele Fiore AD 4’s FB page. It makes me wonder if the digital gods of social media are playing games or something.”
It was embarrassing at first – but not now after I read the response she posted on my page: “You know whats (sic) really pathetic, as I work hard to fight an overreaching Federal Government I get critics like you who said I deleted their comments but yet are still there. Maybe this is why my peers and other electes (sic) don’t publicly stand up because as they fight for the people we get braniacs (sic) like yourself. If you don’t like my stand please do something yourself. First unfriend me. Good night.”
Ouch!
I never said she wasn’t fighting the ‘good fight’ against an overreaching federal government as I happen to agree with her position. But unfortunately, my original question remains unanswered – has Assemblywoman Michele Fiore changed her position on what Mr. Bundy said, now that the full weight of the video has been released?
A ‘yes or no’ would have sufficed.
