It always cracks me up to read the Grapevine in The Daily Times each and every day.
It's the perfect place for Barrie Tilghman, Gary Comegys, Mike Dunn, Lynn Cathcart and Shanie Shields to promote their own agenda items, mainly the old Salisbury Mall.
Mike Dunn had stated quite some time ago that he knew of at least a hundred supporters for that project and Lynn stated she could barely make it through the new Mall without tons of people confronting her telling her they too supported the project.
The funny thing is, where have "all" these people been over the past year or more? None of them have "ever" made it to a City Council Meeting and certainly none of them were there recently at the County Council Meeting when that Council dumped the entire TIF idea.
I guess my entire point here is, don't ever be fooled that "most" of these political Grapevine attacks aren't those mentioned above, because it more than likely is. If it wasn't, then they'd put in a letter to the editor and put a name to their beliefs.
And they call the blogs nasty. Campaign season's barely begun and the manure from "the other side" is already flyin' in the Grapevine. There was a pretty bad one about Mr. Spies and Ms. Cohen the other day.
ReplyDeleteThe County elections were pretty refreshin'. I hope maybe one day we'll have that fer the City. Maybe if we get new folks in, I'll get t'see that before I die.
