Greg Schmidt for King County Sheriff
According to the Seattle Times, the King County Sheriff’s office is a paper pusher's dream:
Running a department with a $110 million budget and 1,100 employees, including 750 sworn officers, is a leadership position that builds upon knowledge of the mission and people, and demands broad experience juggling budgets and paperwork.Actually, there is much more to consider when casting your vote for such an important position. Chief among these is whether the candidate brings an extreme ideology with him or her to the office. We need a Sheriff that is focused on law enforcement basics, not social engineering.
Sue Rahr clearly subscribes to the gender feminist “men are bad, women are good” philosophy. For example, she is a true believe in the orthodox feminist view that domestic violence is an expression of “patriarchal control and oppression.” Among her accomplishments is leading a nazi-like movement within the sheriff’s office to ensure that only men are arrested in domestic disturbances, regardless of the circumstances encountered by a deputy. She also gleefully enforces unfounded restraining orders that are often used as tactics in divorces to remove a father from the lives of his children.
Greg Schmidt has a more balanced perspective on these matters. He is also much more articulate than Rahr and has more experience working with men and women on the beat. While Rahr was learning how to push papers and play office politics (as well as gender politics), Schmidt was out working with the community and solving crime.
So, unlike the all to predictable Seattle Times, we endorse Greg Schmidt. In fact, we recommend that you make a campaign contribution to Schmidt.

I feel sick. This is how the nazi's did it.
I dunno, according to this post Schmidt shouldn't get elected because he doesn't look as good in a cowboy hat: http://zorba.members.winisp.net/2005/10/seattle-voting-guide-picture-is-worth.html
Greg Scmidt is nothing but a liar and is a bad candidate for sheriff. He claims to have experience, but is clear that he does not have near enough understanding of King County government to even be considered qualified for the job
