Snoopy Wrote:Danno,Don't get me wrong. Wayne is a nice guy. I don't fault you one bit for considering him a friend. I just think he could do a little better job in certain areas. Things like the $15 for a video and threats of lawsuit for putting an open meeting on youtube that strike me as abuses of power. Maybe they strike others as something a good public official does. Maybe I'm being picky. Public and elected officials need to know that they are accountable to the taxpayers.
I do not wish to dispute your run ins with the city, nor will I attempt to defend a person I consider a friend. He holds a public office and is responsible to his constituents, period. I will say, that despite your disgreements with a friend of mine, his peers recognized his achievements within the state of Illinois. I'll not dispute that you have legitimate beefs with this entire organization, but I should also consider the views of his peers that have distinguished him with an award; as laughable as it may seem to you. There always are three sides to a story. Voters have a choice in the morning/afternoon. I hope he succeeds, he is a good man. You choice is yours, Danno, inevitibly, the voters will decide.
Good luck, Wayne.

Anyway, I'm sure Wayne will win and end up doing what he wants so this is moot.
