True open government would have been to allow the people to vote on who they as a whole wanted to replace the ones they elected to begin with.<BR/><BR/>It is no big secret I have opposed this lawsuit but many have missed why I opposed it and so now I tell you.<BR/><BR/>1. News-Sentinel was in this for publicity and because they didn't get who they wanted in the seats.<BR/><BR/>2. Increase KNS traffic and subscriptions.<BR/><BR/>And finally let me say that even though this guilty verdict has come back what is solved? Nothing!! The same power people will back new minions and have the same result. <BR/><BR/>True reform would be booting out the entire county government and electing all new participants to what was once a well ran institution.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
