It’s tough to lose a loyal friend. 

Fortunately (I suppose) I’ve had my fair share of experience with it happening.  The latest involves Michael Hein.  He was my administrator in the closing years of my work at the Christian Civic League of Maine way back in the first decade of the new millennium.

The image above is merely the latest twist in a long string of turns with Hein that started in the fall of last year.  You can read the post for yourself.  Hein is accusing the Truthslinger of stolen valor.  Hein is lying.  The medal on Tim’s hat was his fathers.  Grok opines, “Wearing a medal your deceased father was awarded isn’t considered stolen valor …”

Hein has launched a one man crusade online to destroy the work that Tim is doing to expose the political machinations of woke school boards in Maine.  Hein chooses not to accurately value this honorable political work.  Assuming God’s position as Tim’s eternal Judge Hein chooses to focus on what he considers to be Tim’s public sins.

I know Mike.  Once you become his enemy look out.  He will do everything in his power to destroy you.  He’s pulling out all the stops with Tim Bodnar.  I have, in fact, so much respect for Hein’s political and research skills that it’s a bit unnerving to publish this criticism of him. 

I’d rather not become his target.

He must, however, back off of Tim.  He’s gone way to far with his crusade.  If he is truly a Christian he must drop this campaign and do a better job of sorting good from bad.

Selah.
