Welcome to Mayor Gridlock
October 19th, 2005Yeah, I said that once, but that was yesterday and this is today. I don’t care if the monorail is completely affordable. I don’t care that it’s cheaper than light rail. I don’t care how many times you voted for it. If you haven’t noticed, I’m pretty much running unopposed, so I don’t have to care what anyone thinks.
So, while you’re all confused about what’s going on and there isn’t enough time to clear the air, I’m going to force it on the ballot and you have to vote for it all over again for a fifth time. Can you believe it? A fifth vote! I can, ’cause I’m Mayor Gridlock and I get what I want. If I’d rather spend taxes on an overpriced tunnel instead of something you said you wanted over and over well, Mayor Gridlock will do just that. Yeah, I talk about myself in the third person sometimes, ’cause Mayor Gridlock likes to do that. Don’t like it? Too bad.
By the way, the week that I made the monorail board put something on the ballot, I didn’t attend a single public meeting with them. Not one! What did I do instead? I spent a good part of my week attending groundbreakings and ribbons cuttings, cause they’re fun. And sometimes there’s free cookies.
