They story that we all just read - large political donation ($9k IS large) in exchange for a rezone - is
exactly the kind of thing you're always railing against. I've seen you correct people who call it a donation - saying it's a bribe, instead.
But when it's Carl, you wave it off, saying he "knows how to play the game." And, then you go on to say that he's exactly what we need - instead of the status quo!
Guess what - he is the ****ing
epitome, of the status quo! Yet, all he has to do is pretend to be an "outsider", and you believe him?
He is so entrenched in government that it's not even funny.
You're right about one thing -- he does know how to play the game. And, personally, I don't fault him one bit for that. Until he comes out, and pretends to be against the same game that he's been mastering for years.
Res - you're a smart man. And, if you've been fooled by this bull ****, then I'm sure a lot of other people have, as well. Maybe I was wrong all along -- maybe, Carl
does have a chance.
