Following today’s MTNP Radio program, while the webcam was still streaming, I unleashed on a rant against NHDP chair Ray Buckley. Reacting to the fact that today is his birthday, and that a national gay rights group would be on hand to celebrate it–and the role he played in getting gay marriage passed in NH– I made a play to the camera that was watched and reported on by an online media outlet.
To be blunt, what I said is something that never should have been said in any kind of a public setting, or, quite frankly, in a private one either. Being human, and an honest person that is used to freely speaking my mind, my passion got the best of me. Politically correct? Nah, that’s not my style. Calling people names, THAT’S usually not my style, either, as I prefer to debate the issues in a battle of ideas.
I would like to apologize to Ray Buckley and those whom I may have offended for my unfortunate remarks following this morning’s program. There is no excuse for the tone or language I used to characterize Ray or anyone for that matter. I would also like to apologize to my guests, my co-hosts, the folks at WEMJ, and the readers of the Grok. I care deeply about my family, my state and my country. My sole reason for having this show is to shed light on just how quickly our country is being led down the wrong path. My remarks were not helpful to protecting the rights and the freedoms I fight for everyday.
