. . . if it weren’t for those meddling reporters and bloggers.”
First I want to start on the positive. Mike has agreed to experimenting with snowgates and upgrading infrastructure before building new roads. Good. These are only common sense endeavors. But he needs to work on the whole ‘transparency’ thingy.
Ellis’ column proves something I thought about Mayor Mike during the campaign; He talks out of both sides of his mouth and can’t give a straight answer to a straight question. I have often believed he took the positive aspects of Staggers, repackaged them and sold them as Huether USDA choice. Snowgates? Infrastructure first? Can you say; the hallmarks of Staggers two terms on the city council?
But let’s look at the run around that Ellis has so beautifully displayed about Mayor Subprime’s transition team;
• On May 4, Huether said he was still putting “the team” together.
• Then comes May 17, Turns out the mayor was still forming his team. Actually, he said, “it’s not so much just one team.”
• By May 22, the situation had changed in dramatic fashion. “The transition team is Mike Huether, that’s it,” the mayor said.
Was there a transition team? Is there a transition team? Or is the team really just My Man Mike?
Scooby-Doo, where are you?
