I've often wondered why my little town has become such a pit: there appears to be no coherence, no carefully considered master plan that puts us on a path to being better. The grafitti, the trash-filled empty lots, the plethora of homes in foreclosure, the lack of simple neighborhood amenities such as paved streets, the financial boondoggles all fill me with wonder: is anyone in charge who actually knows what needs to be done, as well as what is actually being done?
There is an answer for that: at last night's televised 4-hour long City Council meeting, the MAYOR characterized another Council member as a "son of a bitch" in front of a live mic. Oh yes she did!
When a newly-seated Council member chastized the other Council members for their treatment of him, one of the old-timers admonished him that he needs to "toughen up" if he's going to be in politics! No common courtesy and/or Golden Rule if you win an election in this town, no siree!
At this point, there may be some "lower" to go, but I'm thinking maybe we're already there?
