Byberg: Menze misrepresents me, energy policy

I first met Glen Menze during the winter of 2009-10, while competing with him (and two other candidates) for the Republican Party endorsement for the U.S. House of Representatives for the 7th Congressional District.

I was surprised and disappointed to learn that Glen chose to violate his word and run on the Independence Party ticket.
