Scrolling down reading these comments before I replied when I realized I'd been beaten to the punch. Was gonna point out that Grits has Bradley's "unrestrained and uneducated" quote in his bragging points! Didn't you used to have something similar on a sidebar, Mark? Mpt from Bradley, dont' remember from whom. Maybe I'm thinking about the "no humor when it comes to authority figures" (got that wrong, I know) Sheesh.

While, just in case. I'd request his permission before attaching a proper name to his pseudonym in a blog comment, as far as I know he's no more anonymous than I am just because I use the nom de plume "Grits." Are SOURCED ad hominem attacks okay? :) BTW, Big Jolly is not “anonymous,” at least to me. While, just in case.

How about this? "Bradley doesn't help those of us that are both Republican and conservative move our agenda forward?" Sigh. How about this?

“Bradley doesn’t help those of us that are both Republican and conservative move our agenda forward?”

Recently Bradley contacted me and asked me to take down the quote because he was apparently embarrassed by it. While I agree he SHOULD be embarrassed, as he also should by his silly comment about you, I refused to remove it and told him if he didn't like being quoted he should watch his mouth when speaking publicly. Apparently that advice didn't sink in. I’ve got a quote from John Bradley in Grits’ sidebar where he called me “unrestrained and uneducated” on the prosecutors’ association user forum.
