The Times article mentions a desire to remove political considerations
for hiring and personnel decisions. I'm just curious: I've interviewed
for several jobs, and haven't ever had my political orientation
questioned. I'm wondering exactly where political considerations enter
into hiring decisions -- does anyone out there have any experience with
this?
Thanks,
m

I'll bet he was on his way to a peace rally with Kerri Dunn and Maria

"Politics in Gainesville turned rough and tumble Thursday night when,
police say, a social behavior sciences instructor - a Democrat - punched
the chairman of the Alachua County Republican Executive Committee in the
face.
David Philip McCally, 55, of Gainesville faces misdemeanor battery and
criminal mischief charges after he was accused of hitting both committee
chairman Travis Horn, 32, and a life-sized, cardboard cutout of
President George Bush.
After hitting the cutout, Horn said McCally left the office where a
Young Republicans meeting was taking place. When Horn went outside, he
said McCally came up to him. "He proceeded to say how he had a Ph.D.,
and he was smarter than me. I'm a stupid Republican," and other comments
laced with obscenities, he said."
Gee, this article makes me glad I have a job, but afraid I'll be
physically attacked. What would you do?
