Margaret: I think we on the list are blessed with opinions but, less often, a 100 percent certain knowledge of the truth.
If you're calling Phyllis a liar, say so. But I see no evidence that she is not acting on her convictions. You may disagree with her - I personally go back and forth on her bill - but that doesn't make her a liar. You offer no proof of your serious charge other than your opinion. As for accountability, she has been quite public, both at the legislature and on this forum, arguing for her bill. That's not something liars usually do. And last I hear, she was elected by her constituents despite repeated challenges from worthy opponents. In that, she is more accountable than most of us. I find reckless speculation and unsupported disparagement also alienates people from politics.
