David Madore Said it Best

For the record, those of us at Lew Waters Watch have also been sorry to see the deep division that has been caused in the Conservative Community of Clark County.  Mr. Madore is absolutely right, we do need to be united and standing together as comrades.  However, we've found it awfully difficult to do this when one of our own has been unceasingly critical of the very good work that has been done in this county by very good people, all because he has some sort of grievance about the national political preferences of a minority of the conservatives who have made their voices heard in the last few years.

For some time we have approached Mr. Waters in a variety of ways to stop the unnecessary and ill-informed rhetoric aimed at other conservative groups in this county, and for this effort people have been publicly ridiculed, called vile, disgusting things and inevitably banned from discourse with Mr. Waters altogether. It was with great regret that we decided that engaging Mr. Waters on his own turf was futile, and that the only way to counter his divisive attitude, unfounded insinuations and incorrect assumptions was to open our own counter-site to call him to account for his commentary. As we've stated before, all we ask is that Mr. Waters use a normal amount of social decorum when commenting on people who fundamentally agree with him on nearly every topic you care to imagine.  Mr. Waters has created an imaginary stalking horse based on a political prejudice, and assigned it to a group of people to which it's not even relevant.  Why he has done this baffles us, and we're at wits end trying to talk sense to him, because the moment the subject is broached he begins chanting and quits listening.

We look forward to restoring good will to Mr. Waters.  He has done exceptional work for the conservative movement in Clark County for years, and we hope to see him do so for many more.  We just don't understand how he can do this while he's diligently seeking to alienate the conservative base, just because he thinks they support a particular candidate who's no longer even relevant.

Lew goes on later in the comments to label this a smear site and wonders why no one has encouraged us to dial it back.  No one needs to encourage us, Mr. Waters. We have repeatedly stated that we want nothing more than to see this go away.  We will do so when you stop maligning and making false insinuations about corruption against people who are working for the very same things you are.  This is a smear site only in so much as you have used your soapbox to smear other good, solid Conservatives in Clark County.  Many people have offered to meet with you over the years and explain what is going on and why.  You have slapped the olive branches away and continued chanting.

Observe Ronald Reagan's 11th commandment, and no one has a problem.  I would like to see your site go public again, and I would be very interested in your views on the Clark County charter.  I would be delighted to find nothing slanderous about the new conservatives who have made their voices heard in Clark County.  We're not evil, we're not brown shirts, we're not underhanded or secretive or unethical.  And we really don't understand where or how you got the idea that we were.
