I would like to concure with Mr. Mad_Merc though that once you propose a legitimate plan for change, I will be all ears.

"holly", what's an "ethics card" and in what game does it apply?

"mad", who's the "God appointee"? I certainly never claimed that distinction.

Tom, thanks so much for giving your name! Trust me, I'll ALWAYS give mine :-)

Is anyone taking notes? This has potential to be an all time best selling political/comedy novel!
Posted by mad_merc]]> Fri, 10 Jul 2009 15:13:20 -0500 Memphis Flyer I choose to take the stance that a step, or even an attempted step, forward is a step in the right direction, and we should look at what a person can do to help this city, instead of nit picking each city council vote.

neither the CA, nor the Flyer, nor most television media have reported on the "apparent improprieties involved in the council's vote tuesday", and i haven't seen any of them "point out the ethical implications".

yes, it's definitely "political gamesmanship" AND it's definitely an "ethical issue".

thanks again!

jackson, let me ask you something: are you and john branston and the CA and most television media so tired of herenton that you will continue to WINK at the apparent improprieties involved in the council's vote tuesday?

are you so tired of herenton that you won't even raise the question of why 4 councilmen who have an obvious conflict of interest would not recuse themselves from the vote?

are you so tired of herenton that your journalistic ethics won't kick in to the point where you'll point out the ethical implications? in that 7-vote majority who passed that empty resolution tuesday you had the following: 2 declared candidates for mayor (lowery and strickland); 1 "thinking about it" candidate for mayor (kemp conrad); and a member of the so-called "mayoral transition team" (bill boyd). that's 4 votes who made that baseless decision. DO YOUR JOURNALISTIC ETHICS NOT REQUIRE YOU TO AT LEAST POINT OUT THE APPARENT ETHICAL QUANDRY???

Thank you.
