We wonder if we are alone in
our belief there have been
too many debates. Do we have
to have a debate every other day,
moderated by the liberal media,
and with no questions we want
answers to?
The Republican debates are
turning into a bad dream that
just won’t go away.
You know the kind, you nod off
into deep sleep, then the Calliope
music starts and a spotlight hits
the center of the big top floor.
A garish little car zooms in,
turns and stops under the spots.
The door creaks open and a horde
of clowns that look like they
came from the mind of Steven
King come spilling out.
They shamble directly towards
you with grins that show their
rows of pointy teeth.
You jolt awake and tell yourself
it was only a dream and go back to
sleep. But once you hit the land
of nod, the Calliope music starts
and a spotlight hits the center of
the big top floor…….
AAAAAAAAAAAAAH! It’s like the
Twilight Zone and we know it will
never go away. The dream will keep
recurring, and the debates will
continue almost daily until November.
Just once we wish they could find a
moderator who asks relevant questions.
If you honestly believe the debates
are an intelligent use of the
candidates times, we can’t explain
it to you.
Comments are always welcome.
Mayor Gluba on television this morning saying he had gotten 3 redlight-speeding traffic tickets and paid them all. Must be why he wanted a 40% salary increase paid by the rest of us.
Shabonee,
lol, Sure proves he didn’t learn his lesson after the first one.
If the cameras really are for safety, someone should inform
our Mayor so the rest of us feel safer.

Council really was a circus last night. Meeker and Boom were talking and laughing about speakers that came to the podium as soon as their back was turned. They must have thought nobody was watching them. Then the mayor did his usual sighs with his mic on when people would come up and speak. It was taking way too long for him, as he could be seen checking his watch about every 5 minutes. Public is not welcome at those meetings.
anonymous,
I remember getting the same treatment as a speaker by a different council. Often wonder why they ask for comments when they obviously don’t want to listen to them.
This mess with the budget may not be over yet even with the vote last night. The three unions have not yet signed with the city, and they are demanding a 4 percent pay increase. This budget calls for a zero percent increase….so where will that money come from….they will have to raise up something else to pay for that shortfall.
anonymous,
We were wondering that ourselves since employees appear to be the largest part of the budget. Perhaps that why the 2014 hikes were added.
