But I went over to the blog she has and I have to say, this is some of the most intelligent public official commentary I have seen in years. I wish more of them gave a d a m n like this. I would rather have 5 good decisions made by my government than 50 bad or so-so ones. Ireton seems so desperate to have his name on things that he's forgotten what he is supposed to be doing this for. Cohen has pegged the problems with the Daily Times right on and remained out of the gutter.<br /><br />All this is to say thank you, Joe, for posting this since I don't take the rag. I got sick of it long ago. And I am so sick of reading the spew that comes out of Washington that I skip over a lot of those posts here now. But I decided to read these local posts and it made me think how different things could be if we could elect more real people like this instead of political hacks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-34295527768991487502012-12-10T21:19:54.126-05:002012-12-10T21:19:54.126-05:00If by corrupt you mean incompetent, then you'r...If by corrupt you mean incompetent, then you're using the wrong word.

I don't think they can even start the process. I think that's the mayor's gig. If you know there is corruption, use the Whistleblower law and get the ball rolling.<br /><br />Kudos to Cohen for taking time to respond to the DT's garbage.

They felt it was important to get info out there the press seldom did and to make it easier for the public to know things that get discussed in work sessions and such.<br /><br />Comegys, Smith, Shields and the Daily Times tore into them for having it, as though Campbell and Cohen were doing some secret overthrow of the government.<br /><br />Can't wait for Salisbury to come into the 21st century.
