How dare you question my commitment to any "cause." I prefer logical arguments, letters, phone calls and direct conversations with decision-makers, and facts, to emotion, inaccuracies and tacky Sunday AM lurking.<BR/><BR/>And if you have to ask why it's classless to show up at the mayor's house to protest on a Sunday morning, you have none.<BR/><BR/>God I cannot wait until Nov. 6.

Talk about lacking 'class'.<BR/><BR/>And by the way, tonight is another 'proper time and place', as the CCC will be voting on our taxes again tonight.<BR/><BR/>Be there. Showing up two times at rallies is hardly demonstrating a commitment to the cause.Bart Lieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01294734264133374462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-52304109949760554022007-09-17T10:03:00.000-05:002007-09-17T10:03:00.000-05:00I'm angry about tax increases, too, and I've weighed in with my elected representatives and the mayor. <BR/><BR/>I attended two of the rallies, one at the Governor's Residence (I use that term loosely) and one at a church.<BR/><BR/>But never in my wildest dreams would I protest at the Mayor's home on a Sunday morning.<BR/><BR/>Completely and utterly without class.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-88169901258584474762007-09-17T09:50:00.000-05:002007-09-17T09:50:00.000-05:00Thanks, Bart Lies, for correcting my mathematical error.Gary R.

This article is about the CCC and its supposed budget cuts. It has nothing to do with Gov Daniels. You need to leave the "spin" to your washer, it does a much better job!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-57199441408027422342007-09-17T08:17:00.000-05:002007-09-17T08:17:00.000-05:00I've heard that the CCC is revisiting the 65% vote again tonight. A possible re-vote. Is this true? If so can Carson cast a vote without hearing the public testimony?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-67813276998379457132007-09-17T08:11:00.000-05:002007-09-17T08:11:00.000-05:00Daniels may have seriously burnt himself by postponing having to pay for the 2007 increase until 2008. The 2008 tax bills will be substantially the same as the original high 2007 ones plus those deferred 2007 increases will also come due. Double whammy! It's doing to be gruesome during the 2008 election year but the pressure was relieved during the 2007 municipal elections. I'm not sure Daniels thought it through but Peterson owes him bigtime!Wilson46201https://www.blogger.com/profile/14214029150233485312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-15899682186342042572007-09-17T08:08:00.000-05:002007-09-17T08:08:00.000-05:00It is rumored that some of the mayor's "cuts" were in his office, by some off his staff being moved to his campaign staff...and will eventually be back. If this is true, then some of his "cuts" are just temporary....<BR/>Is this rumor factual, Mayor????????????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
