Wait, I’m sorry, you are right after all Dawn. The Democrats in office ultimately are responsible when they allow beautiful oaks to be replaced by little holly twigs and agree to call it even. Democrats are allowing developers like Boulos and the Ghazvinis to clearcut whole mature forests and fill in wetlands to create penal colony looking tracts of what they claim are affordable houses.

And lest we forget, it was these same democrats that handed $20 mil of taxpayer money to FSU so its richest fans can lounge their butts in luxury stadium seating.
Oh but wait again, that wasn’t all democrats, just city mayor John Dailey along with Leon County commissioners Jimbo Jackson, Bill Proctor, Carolyn Cummings and Nick Maddox, and city of Tallahassee commissioners Dianne Williams-Cox and Curtis Richardson rammed and scammed that handout through.

For certain he’s in the pockets of local developers and never opposes their radical money-making projects. He’s never met a Southside taxpayer money give-away program he doesn’t think is critically important. He rarely says anything original at the commission meetings but just goes with the flow based on which way the “political wind” is blowing. Kind of a “don’t rock the boat” kind of guy. And yet, he represents the district with the highest paying taxpayers in the entire county.

When Desloge was commissioner he at lease was a “mover and shaker.” Unfortunately, he rocked the boat a little too much and went crazy with some of his proposals. Believe me, I’m no Desloge fan and was very glad to see him go.

I optimistically looked forward to seeing a better Commissioner when Welch won. I voted for him. After watching what he does, or doesn’t do for that matter, I, and perhaps some of you, may share my disappointment.

Be very careful with your vote when the time comes. You may regret what you get. I did.
